I have two slots free for the tournament and I will keep them that way. When evrybody is ready to start I'm up for it.
Ggood luck to everyone and good games!

OK. Here's the list of who plays who and with what colour. The player playing white is to send the invite to the player who is to play black. This is a one round elimination tournament. Once you've lost, your eliminated. In case of a draw, the game will be replayed with the colours swiched. Winners move on. Once the first round is done, I will post who plays who for the second round. This is entirely random, so ratings will not correspond to seedings.

The games will be 3/7. Once the game has ended, please send me a PM stating the winner, the loser, and the game number. The player with the white pieces will do all this (so as to avoid doubled emails).

If anyone has any problems (such as not starting the game within a reasonable time of invite) please contact me via PM.

The list will be in my next post.

Edit - Please name the game 'Tournament' or the like so as to avoid confusion.
Edit #2 - Maybe it might be better to send me the game ID as soon as it starts. That way I'll be able to make sure everything starts on time. Your call.

1. shortcircuit will play vs. hammster21 with the white pieces.
2. ih8sens will play vs. untergang with the white pieces.
3. ChessJester will play vs. Marsan with the white pieces.
4. Wayne1324 will play vs. Schachgot with the white pieces.
5. Schumi will play vs. Ivan2908 with the white pieces
6. EmLasker will play vs. adam warlock with the white pieces.
7. Restless Soul will play vs. scubily with the white pieces.
8. Superman will play vs. Patzergrl with the white pieces.

To all the white players - Please start these games as soon as possible.
To black players - Should the game invite not be recieved within 2 days of this post, please contact me.

All games should be well underway by April 2nd.

HAVE FUN!!!

Is it just me or is that worded a little funny. I can't tell who has the white pieces, Is it the first person you mention or the second?

my bad yah, first person has white

I am unclear on one thing. Do we just play a 3/7 game with our opponent and report the results to you, or is there some format we should use. I have never played an online tournament before, so please excuse my ignorance.

just play a 3/7 game, yah. Because we're not members, we can't really run a formal tournament. so just report to me.

Here's the game between shortcircuit and hammster21 - In progress of course.

Game 3379793
