Chess Tournament

So ive been sort of addicted to chess lately so I figured why not have a simple chess tournament. It will be a 8 person single elimination bracket but if more people are interested it will rise up to 16 people. The more the merrier

When your eventually matched up against some all you have to do is find a good 30 or so minute time frame where you and your opponent have enough time to play. To play just have a good way to message them and send them a link to your game through http://en.lichess.org/ all you have to do is click " play with a friend" then set click "time control" and set it to real time then set the increment in seconds to 5 seconds and the time per side to 55 then click the side you want to be on and send the link it then gives you to your opponent. To verify that someone won the match just post in this thread paging the other person you played with to confirm it - take a screenshot also maybe?

Using this simple rules / gameplay we will determine the

KING ARTHURS GOLD CHESS CHAMPION

The winner of the bracket will get their choice of either one of these fine sid meirer games :
Civ 3 complete edition
Civ 4 complete edition
Sid Meirers Rail road
or Sid Meirers Pirates
along with one of those they will win the title of KING ARTHURS GOLD CHESS CHAMPION

What bracket will look like

Count me in but what is the chess variant? I mean mostly how much time we got

 

Just casual chess unlimited time. Unless you ans your opponent want to make it harder on yourselves if you guys both agree you want to time yourselves you may

Esit: doing 55 mins each 5 sec increment delay instead

 

Sign me up please.

 

Because Geti looks at all the posts he's tagged in

 

Il do that since thats how they do the real tourneys

 

Meh, I'll enter

 

I'm in, I'll use the tactic my grandfather taught me when I was 8

 

someone needs to invite Rayne so I can beat him a ban match again

 

Is that you signing up? :o
