Gomoku is on the Estonian Mind Games Championship program for the first time. Gomoku players - we look forward to your active participation, so this game can permanently establish itself in the mind games competition!

The same topic is discussed in our Forum under the Gomoku and rendzu tournaments topic.

I would like to ask one question about your post, do you have to participate in all areas? I don't know chess, bridge or sudoku. (I mean the EMV mind games multi-sport competition)

I would like to ask one question, do you have to participate in all areas? I don't know chess, bridge or sudoku.

Fantunes, what do you think? Participation in three areas is OK. The remaining two will be zero.

You don't have to participate in all areas. It's perfectly OK to play 3 areas, sometimes even 2 areas are limited.

But do I have to register on the 13th or can I register on the 14th too, because I'm not participating on the 13th?

Apparently it's meant to be that some of the games will already be played on the 13th...
