Yes, we could definitely use a few more higher ranked players in the corr tournaments. We are planning a site-wide tournament in the future which will hopefully convince more players to come over from the old Caissa site. In the mean time we definitely encourage you to play a Open tournament, Class O. You should not have a problem getting a tournament started there and the play is usually quite good.

If you think the lack of life in classes M and X is bad enough, just look at the whole situation in the Chess960 tours.

We will do more to promote both Chess960 and the Chess960 tournaments. We should have a Chess960 video tutorial in the near future.
