A few things that you might want to
keep in mind!
·
As this event involves a very intensive format, do
expect to get very tired by the end of the day.
·
Sometimes, adjudication and tabulation of results
might result in small delays at different points during the day. Hence, please
do keep in mind that the schedule may not eventually be accurately followed,
and the day might end later than mentioned here.
·
That said, we will do everything in our capacity to
run the tournament as per schedule strictly.
·
If you have any queries on any part of this schedule,
