Sorry Ian but I'm with David here.
1) We've got so many chess events going on both locally and with 4NCL and the various Lichess events that I am with him in thinking that we really don't need another event!
2) I would appreciate it if you would make the intermittent Cornish gambit events RATED rather than unrated
3)  and I would also be pleased if you would increase the default font size on this forum to something kinder to ageing eyes. As things stand you need to be wearing glasses to read the stuff on this site.
4) With regard to the Roger Grime and Under 135 Cups, I think that these should be played on different days over a weekend (or two if that is what is needed) over the board.

1) Let the people decide. If they don't want it, they'll vote against it.
2) The thematic events are designed to allow people to practise unfamiliar openings without the inhibition of thinking about their ratings. To the extent that lichess ratings matter at all (which, in my view they don't), it wouldn't be fair for someones rating to be affected because they had to play a series of openings they knew nothing about. Discouraging people from entering would not be beneficial.
3) I'll see what I can do.
4) That's already being proposed.
