Hello Chess Forum!
We had a great success with our first chess tournament!
http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/14...layers-644460/
We are
*NOW* opening registration for the Second 2p2 Chess Championship
we now have a bigger crew of organizers:
bradpittbr
All-inMcLovin
NikiTheone
DON CASTI
The tournament will now have a different formant forsake of everyone's enjoyment.
Instead of holding another KO tournament, which is boring for whoever loses the first round, it will be a Swiss, so everyone can play a lot of games.
The tournament will at least be 5 rounds. If 64 people join then it will be increased to at least 6 rounds, 128 to at least 7 rounds.
So we still don't know how many rounds the tournament will ultimately have but it will at least have 5 rounds. We will only know it after the registration is closed and this thread will be updated then.
every round will be:
4-game match
the winner of the match wins 1 point
the loser 0
if the match is 2x2 both players get 0,5 points
time control: 5 min + 2 seconds per move
tie breaks:
1- total number of points in every match
2- direct match (
5 games of 5/2 time control)
Place:
held on FICS(
http://www.freechess.org/) so nobody needs to pay account like on ICC or playchess and everyone can play. FICS is simple, you just register and download a small software(called Babas or any other you want), then meet the player for his nick that we will find here in this post. and challenge him at a give time. (we scheduled the games thru private messages in this forum)
how to demonstrate you won:
like this with a printscreen like this pic in this link of the first tournament in All-inMcLovin's post shoving the history of games with the wins (u can find the history just typing "his" on main console)
