Here are some numbers:

Event | Participants | Avg Top 10 ELO | Avg Top 5 ELO
CCT1  | 22           | 2531           | 2655
CCT2  | 21           | 2383           | 2504
CCT3  | 32           | 2605           | 2685
CCT4  | 46           | 2624           | 2680
CCT5  | 45           | 2521           | 2546

The events appear to be growing, but I'm not sure they're getting stronger. Last
year (CCT5) was the second weakest field out of the five events so far, with no
commercial participants. Hopefully last year wasn't the beginning of a trend,
but I fear that it is.
