Everybody, here are the pairings. Please try to start the games ASAP. They should be started by the 8th to avoid a time out loss.

Good luck!

walshinator666(w) vs. wayne1324(b)
AlphaAlekhine(w) vs. ih8sens(b)

Several of us have very close ratings. Should be an interesting tournament. Still waiting on ih8sens to have an open slot.

White drops a knight in the opening moves of a Sicilian to Wayne1324, and proceeds to gets his pawns munched upon.

Hammster21 faces Unstergang's French Defense....

shortcircuit faces a big underdog in Blitzkreig, who decides to play a gambit opening.

And, AlphaAlekhine & ih8sens play through the moves of an interesting King's Indian Attack.

no comments on games in progress so I'll just say...that's not the KIA

It started out as a Reti, but transposed into an obscure d4 opening

yah, I pulled him out of the book as quickly as possible. Databases are too equalizing.

LOL, gl finding a database full of KIA games (I have 1, it's small and only includes KIAs with 1. e4)

I wish I saw this thread early or I would've entered 😳

hmm... and here i thought i was black and i was playing the French defense, maybe it's some sort of variation with white that i've never heard of, yes that must be it.
