The NWSRS Rating Report will be ready soon.
Congratulations to all of the players on competing in this historic tournament! Our amazing chess community continues to thrive despite these uncertain times!!
With 211 players and 514 games, I am assuming this was a 5-round event. What was the time control?
Part of me wants to say congratulations, and part of me wants to ask for more information.
Did chess.com make the pairings, or did you use a pairing program and submit the pairings to chess.com?
I guess I’ll find out more when the NWSRS rating report becomes available.

Don’t think rating report will give you the info asked for. Maybe an article in NORTHWEST CHESS mag might.
