This is designed to be a tournament and congress index (and not an index of my chess strategems collections; not sure yet whether gauer's Game Collections <prev> and <next> tags in here for my collections would yet be useful; Game Collection Search is an alternative filter tool; http://www.chessgames.com/perl/ches... is a good collection regularization tool - added to my Banner recently) of some (i) sections of tournaments (organized by rating category ranking) and (ii) tournament sections of congresses (organized by year in a table)
<<To do list: organize the (Cuban) Capablanca memorials (by sections and then by year), some of the Wijk/Tata/Corus events/sections (by year), (some of) the WYCC events (some already marked as tid pages aren't necessarily sorted by age/gender assignments), CYCC(/or other Zonal qualifiers) events, might sort some of the French/Montreal events out, along with some of the regular Kitchener/Guelph/Toronto events into years/sections, perhaps other large swisses later as well>>

I am also potentially willing to consider adding in collections from other kibitzers in the future. The choice of a tabled format is used so that if I add other columns in the future, they might contain other editing information such as section in highest-lowest order, a marker of whether a collection might require rounds/days/months checked, etc. A note in my forum would be an ideal place to add corrections spotted back into the collection headers. Many thanks are owed to the wide variety of author sources at this site who have been able to provide tournament summaries to these games lists with kibitzing areas.
