I enjoyed it myself although things were a bit 'close' at the end. I think things went reasonably well, although we had a few pairing glitches caused by things like programs playing the _wrong_ colors, and then complaining when they got too many blacks or whatever. Those kinds of glitches can be watched next time to make sure every game is right, after it gets started. The rest of the details were very good... I'd like to see it run every 6 months myself. It is marvelously affordable compared to the ECCA's yearly event.. :)
