I've played in all CTT's. It's a great fun, and I'm willing to participate in CCT-4, when it happens. I like the conditions of CCT. I like to meet the other programmers and chat with them. I like to see comments from a IM, like in CCT-3. And I like the idea of such a tournament every 4-6 months. And finally, I like long games. If you schedule a tournament every month, I'm not sure I will be able to participate in every edition. If the games are very fast, it will be less interesting. I like the comments between moves, which in blitz are impossible. And it's much more difficult to watch other games. And finally, I don't know what do you mean exactly with "relaxed", but I preffer a tournament where the programmers are present. But the fact that I prefer the CCT events doesn't mean I don't appreciate such initiative like yours. I do appreciate it and I thank you for your interest. I might play in such a tournament sometimes, but not always, however. José C.
