How was attendance? I always thought that our lectures would be well attended if we held them after a tournament, say after the quads. So I'm curious how this experiment went.
Best,

Jason,
We had about a dozen people at the lecture. What exactly that means about having it after a tournament, is not clear. While a few of the attendees from outside the metro area may have come because of the convenience of sticking around, a few tournament participants expressed that they were too tired after a full day of chess to stay for the lecture.
Quads would be a different matter, of course, so that may be the next thing to try.

Hi Nathan-- A dozen is about what you can expect for one of these. I think we maxed out with the top lectures getting maybe 25 people.
I would try post tournament but maybe only after a quad, when 3 rounds ends early enough for everyone.
