Venue - Mt Eden Village Centre - corner of Mt Eden Road and Ngauruhoe Street. It's a church as well as having rooms to hire.
It's a great location being near good cafes, restaurants (including immediately over the road) and shops.
I did start looking at possible accommodation too, but might have to leave that to those attending! However if players see something they think looks ok I'm happy to check it out. Buses go from the city to Mt Eden.
There may be some billets available too.
The primary criterion for ranking candidates is the Q statistic calculated like this:
The secondary criterion is number of rated games within the qualification period. If two players have the same Q statistic, the one with the greater number of rated games in the qualification period is ranked higher.
