The time control for the Badger is GAME/120 minutes with a 5-second delay, with no 5-minute deduction from the clocks.
Yes, the date for the Badger Open early registration and the hotel cut-off are wrong in the Chess Life TLA, they should read 9-28, but will be pushed to 10-5 (send email entries to me at greesesr@wscachess.org).

If you are staying at the Country Springs, but haven't booked a room yet, still ask for the chess discount, you should get it. If not, let me know.
Any word on how SWCC members are faring after the early rounds?
Any results??
The SWCC members did pretty good at this tournament.

Congratulations to Brady Harder for winning the Badger.
