If you'd like to take part in this season's chess tournament and have read the rules pinned at the top of this forum, let us know by posting in this thread.

Players must be able to make moves on a regular basis, players who are inactive for long periods of time will be removed to keep things moving along.

The tournament will start once we have a final list of participants.

do you have to go somewhere or is it online, if it is online, ill do it. if you have to go somewhere, count me out

The tournament is online, check out the Tournament Rules thread for full details.

when is it, i wonna do it pls

Tournament begins as soon as we have a completed list of players I imagine. Altho I see no reason why anyone shouldn't start their games earlier than that if they want to.

*looks at Burnside*

*gets scared*

Can i play with you guys?

*shoves EVERYONE aside in a grand sweeping motion*


I'll do it.

Am I right to assume these games will have no time?

Personally, I love the rush of 1 minute games with the snap of the mind thinking.

So, I'll join and stay this time. Last time I only bailed out cause I honestly didn't think I would be around this long.

MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ahem, uh, I'll give it a go.

Ah, what do we have here....The POTO
Count me in.

Ok the list so far then is as follows:

• SaRuMaN

• Thistle
• Burnside
• Subtemperate

RHP name is JohnnyBoyC

Weird_Al_Wonnabe, it's turn based.
You have 1 day to make a turn, before your timebank starts to be used up. If you get timed out, ie your timebank of 7 days is all used up, you lose.

Unfortunately due to the way the timeout system works, you wouldn't really be able to take part if you can only makes moves on two days a week, because as Burnside said, you will time out all the time, which will eventually lead to you being disqualified anyway.

I think it might be better for you just to skip the tournament this time around.

I'll tempt fate again, count me in.

Ok, at RHP my username is "Kratos".

If you want to practice a bit live, you can shoot me a PM and we can play on Zone.com. or I suppose we could practice on RHP to.

Wel, if anyone wants a warm up game before hand.... my "RHP" nic is Subby

I'm really bad at chess, but I'll give it a go.

^Sure you can, as long as you know how to play chess reasonably well before the tournament begins.

RHP nic Snake6024

Ok i am now registered, but i want you all to know im incredibly horrible at chess

*in a stuck up voice* "yes charles I would love to play a rousing game of chess"

i havn't played for awhile but i'd like to take part - just to see if i still 'got it'

Ok thankyou to everyone who has volunteered to take part, I am going to close this thread for now as we have our 20 starting players.

If at any time anyone quits, I may re-open this thread to ask for more players, so keep an eye on this topic if you'd like to take part but were too late to put your name down.
