I don't think I could commit to a nine-day tournament at this time of year, but if weekend events were run alongside either before or after New Year (handily on a Wednesday this year) I would be interested.
It seems we have the same "Catch-22" here we have with the Scottish. Players of my standard (~1900) will happily pay for the chance to play IMs and GMs, but anyone seeking a norm doesn't really want to meet players below about 2100.
Suggestion for a 'condition' - a free pass to see the Pet Shop Boys at the Hogmanay celebrations.
