Thank you @fhunfi!
Active club to practice classical slow time control 90m+30s/45m+45s/60m+30s in Swiss tourney
Sort:
90 + 30 is a great chance to enjoy real, classical chess, not a game of who blunders less. Great job, Chien! Thanks for all the effort you put in in making it work so well

Good argument for long time control chess :-)
For all you chess players who want to improve, and play more slow games.........This is the place! Chien (fhunfi) does a masterful job here, setting up and coordinating all these games....all on a volunteer basis. He is to be commended for all this extra work. I really enjoy the slow games......it gives me a chance to learn, do my best, and then analyze afterward. Chess is a game where you win, or you learn. Chien gives us a chance to do both. Thank you my friend. Gordon

Swiss 45m+45 is to change the pace from the regular Swiss 90m+30s, as the respond to request from some members who can't afford to spend 3-4 hours to play 90m+30s game.

For you who search for sustainable and dedicated organized tourney,
you will find the right place here.
Thank you so much for promoting and implementing this classical format. Relocated, due to retirement, far away from any major chess centers, commuting to OTB events is no longer a practical option. This makes it possible without having to navigate travel, traffic, or hotels.
Thanks again, fhunfi, for organising these various tournaments. It's a great service to the community appriciated by many.
Very friendly club (tournament director and players) - dedicated to offering long time controls in a variety of formats. Good way to get better at chess 
I am fanatic on participating and greatly enjoying playing in these tours !!! A BIG THANK for all your effort !!

This is an excellent community of chess players. Great for anyone who enjoys longer time controls.
Fhunfi does a great job, well organised, good competition. Thoroughly recommend.
@Fhunfi Thank you for running great tournaments with slower time controls akin to Classical. In my case, I don't have the stamina for four rounds of back-to-back chess in an OTB chess tournament. Also, finding opponents who play these slow time controls online is more difficult. This is a fantastic solution! Thank you!
This club is a great place for practice games! It helps me focused on classical chess in between tournaments.
Really the best club for classical timecontrol games
Thank you fhunfi for organizing everything
Have been playing 90+30 and it's really well run and provides great practise! Big thank you to fhunfi!
Some day every chess player reach the age when one realize that it is impossible to be better player all the time. I have reached that Grandpa age - 72 - but still want to meet an opponent over the board in a hard fighting game. The real bonus for me from these tournaments arranged by fhunfi (Chien) is that games one find here is guarateed to get a peaceful and apprecated environment from Chien and interesting opponents.
