The thinking time per game is 3 minutes + 2 seconds extra time per move.
The preliminary round serves to classify your playing strength. At the beginning, 8 groups of four players will be formed in which everyone plays against everyone else. At the end, your final group ranking will decide whether you will continue in the subsequent knockout phase in the Beginners, Advanced (24 or more participants) or Pro Cup. Here you will meet other players with a similar level of play to yours, so that you have a fair chance of finishing on the winner's podium in your cup and taking home an award.
