A Quick Note 🙏

I sincerely apologize for not sending out tournament reminders this week. An emergency came up unexpectedly, and I wasn’t able to notify players in time. This contributed to the lower turnout and a less competitive field than usual. Normal reminders will resume going forward.

Thanks to everyone who played! If you’re new, please read the tournament information below to get started.
