IYT was running so many Tournaments each week, winning a Sabotage Tournament perhaps
no longer represented the hard fought battles of yesteryear.
After much discussion, it was decided that the four IYT Main #1 Sign-Up Tournaments
listed below would be considered Sabotage Grand Slam events.
(One Slam Event for each Sabotage Tournament variation).
The aim was to attract a large number of quality players to one particular Tournament,
thus making it a very tough Tournament to win !
The Tournament Champions will be listed below,
and should be Congratulated on their epic victories !
It was also suggested that any player wanting good practice for any Sabotage Tournament variation
should aim to enter the Main #1 Tournament sections at the start of each month - that way they should
be guaranteed that the Tournament would start, and be competitive.

For the record, numerous Sabotage players in 2002-2003 contributed to the Message Board discussions
about Major Tournaments - how many and when, etc.
Dima's [SAB-ZeRo] concept of four Grand Slam Majors was most widely accepted.
