I have just started the first game in what I plan to be my chess world tour. I intend to play one game against one player from each and every country represented on this site, just wandering does anybody have or know where I could get a list so I can cross the countries off as I go? and what does everybody think of this idea?

was planning on doing it as one but I could do it separately as I suppose. Ideally I want to be playing people around about my own level, beyond that I think I'm gonna go for open invitation and the first person of appropriate ability to volunteer as representative of their country in this thread will get the game. so who's up and which country are you?

Select each country in turn and then find someone of your ability, send them a PM telling them what you are doing and asking if they want to represent their country against you.

Good luck
