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.

Pi is not on and I'm here...
SirPerioralmost 11 years ago
I'm quite nervous for the next round because I have a 50/50 chance of facing the founder of the tournament...

Wish me luck, folks.

burtonx, hey-o, pm me if you read this!

Maybe it'd be optimal if you'll just readjust the tournament brackets up to who we still have. Those who did message you have to be active, I bet slight re-arrangements could get us a better setup.
Giga13almost 11 years ago
Also I have 13 PMs right now I'll read them tomorrow and update this tomorrow
Giga13almost 11 years agoedited
Well I mean when people signed up I thought they'd have time, they knew the first round would be three days in length for a while

Like we're at the deadline now so there's nothing I can do
deleteddeletedalmost 11 years ago
Yeah, this tournament probably should have been spread out across weeks.
My partner couldn't meet, so I got another partner, and that partner isn't responding.

I couldn't ever get a time lol

Next tournament have entrants specify availability time and build the bracket around that, even if it compromises random distribution at least people are playing.

I actually play chess quite often. Don't usually do countdown, but I'm not a beginner.
Frocealmost 11 years ago

SirPerioralmost 11 years ago

schutzekatzealmost 11 years ago
My opponent and I can't synchronize the time for our game, damn it.
deleteddeletedalmost 11 years ago

SirPerioralmost 11 years ago

I just realized lilin could play smart here and just not reply and he'd advance to the next round.
DeadmanWonderlandalmost 11 years ago
13 hours left and still no contact from eris ._.
Zhuorbalmost 11 years ago
Whoops my bad was kinda busy the past 2 days

You saying lilin and I are the two best?
that's what i gathered from sonse's chess thread anyway.

i find it weird how you guys are only playing 1 game. best of 3 is more fair, surely?
Hard to say, the game she showed as winning was with time pressure. I guess we'll see if we have to play.
