Smile Its Coming!!!!!!! BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!!!!!!

A big chess announcement is coming to OzChess soon!

When I say big, I mean BIG. This is so big in fact, I would suspect to see it on page 1 at the Closet Grandmaster, and Chessexpress - (once we have released the scoop here on OzChess of course).

So stay glued to this thread people, because the big announcement will be made on:

Spoiler for Annoucement Date:
This Thursday morning!


Guarantee: This annoucement will be bigger than any other Australian chess story reported on either Australian chess forum in 2009.

A hint, yes - good idea.

Today's hint is as follows:

[spoiler]It involves an Australian chess heavy weight. Now that could be Ian Rogers, it could be Graeme Gardiner, it could be Arianne Caoili, it could be anybody![/spoiler]

Because the terms and conditions stated that the bombshell - which is very, very big - can only be released on Thursday morning!

It was the price that had to be paid for OzChess to get the exclusive on this story!

The day after tomorrow (Thursday morning), the biggest chess news story in Australia will be unleashed - here on OzChess.

Does anyone want the hint of the day?

Okay, here is the new hint:

Spoiler for Today's Hint:
It will affect Queenslanders and NSW'ers, but not as much as Victorians

OK getting bigger as you go South....

Does that mean the biggest impact will be in Tasmania?

Tasmania will also feel the reverberations of this big annoucement, but not as much as mainland Australia

Smile Final Hint!

Yes Noddy it will be worth the wait!

Spoiler for Last Hint:
People will be surprised, but there is no denying that this will change chess in Australia - especially in Victoria given the high number of chess juniors there!

You missed the hint in the shoutbox Ax. All Australian chess juniors will feel this, not just Victorian juniors.
