Online sats to major tourneys thread

[Ulysses]

I have decided I'm once again interested in playing sats to try and get into some big tourneys and take some vacations. I suspect others would also be interested in knowing what options are out there. Here's what I'm currently aware of. Any additional info (how long the sats will be run, sat schedules, additional tourneys, etc.) would be greatly appreciated.
