Don't know, did not see on WCCC page.  I agree also G/60 would be close
contest, but I would the GM's since ratings above 2600.  Should be fun
at any time control to watch however.  :)

Don't know, did not see on WCCC.  One day event, so few games and
G/30 or G/60 or G/120 would be my guess, just a guess.  :)
