I am very happy with the selection of games we have from which to choose,
and the method for selection.  I do think that like 1.25x selection option
better.  Also, I definitely do not think that Janus Chess should be
included with the other Capablanca variants as 'very similar.' 
Personally I like Janus Chess the best, because it isn't flawed like
Capablanca, and it isn't random.  I would be happy to see CRC included
too, but I am somewhat less interested in seeing it.  I would be happy to
see both, and think both of them are quite different.  I think standard
Capablanca's Chess should not be included for reasons that have already
been well established.

Thanks, Fergus, for your vigilant attention to detail.  I am pleased at
the level of participation that it looks like we will have, I am looking
forward to a great tournament.  I just hope that no one quits and forfeits
all their games as has happened in the last two.
