CHESS TOURNAMENT #2

Giga13almost 11 years ago

CONGRATULATIONS TO:

1st Place: nekochan

2nd Place: Lukageo

3rd Place: Linker

THE TOURNAMENT HAS ENDED, THANK YOU TO ALL PARTICIPANTS!

THE BRACKET: http://challonge.com/EMCT2

The 2nd ever Epicmafia Chess Tournament!

The bracket will be done at random. One signup is closed, I will create it. Games will happen in the games lobby.

When you finish your game, one of the two people who played the game (preferrably the winner) MUST screenshot it and PM it to me. If you do not do this, you will not advance in the tournament. You also should PM me when your game starts just in case your opponent uses a screenshot of them winning from another occasion or something to attempt to cheat.

It will be 15 minutes per player per game, countdown timer and the first person in each bracket will host the game, therefore they can choose which colour they want to play as. You MUST play on the account you signed up with. No cheating or using engines to assist you.

If anyone wants to donate prizes that would be alright.

Draw via threefold repetition isn't programmed in the Chess on this website. Go by the honour system for now. If you draw in the tournament, just keep playing games until someone wins.

How to sign up: Post in this thread saying that you would like to join. For now, I'll max it out at 64 entrants, if we have less before the signup date has passed then we'll start the tournament with that many. ONLY ONE ACCOUNT PER PERSON. It is your job to arrange a time to play with the person you are matched up with.

Good game to Giga. We had a crazy close match third game. It went down to the turn order. He's a great chessplayer and a cool guy to play with Thanks for organizing the tournament and a great trio of games!

I'm really upset at myself because I'm terrible at endgames and it cost me a semifinal spot

Good luck to the rest of the crowd

Had 2 great matches vs. pi3, who I respect as an EM'er as well. We (AkA I trying to put some blame on him) trashtalked the entire game, had fun, and played some really neat lines.

Giga13almost 11 years agoedited
Ok I got it back, deleting the other thread. Thanks everyone

It wouldn't let me view it on this account (probably because I'm the thread creator), but I moved it back here with mod tools

Had quite a game with garden, complex bird's opening, a few blunders on both sides. It was really close and I liked it. Only one turn tempo allowed me to mate him before he mated me: http://oi62.tinypic.com/fkcete.jpg

Carp
let it be known that I only lost by count out, and not by checkmate.
I can lose by countdown. Just show up and wait when it is my turn.
