CHESS TOURNAMENT #3

almost 9 years

I am ending the tournament. This was extremely disappointing and, honestly, pathetic. I expected a much better turnout from the success of the first two chess tournaments that I hosted here, but too many people simply didn't show. Thanks to everyone who actually played or tried to, I appreciate it.

The bracket: http://challonge.com/EMCT3

The 3rd 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 (preferably 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 your opponent doesn't reply, you two never play, and you tried contacting them within a reasonable time frame before the deadline of when your match needs to be played, you will advance and they will be dropped out of the tournament.

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.

NO CHEATING -- If you cheat in a free tournament you're a loser anyway

Yo Mod you should play blindfolded. Don't ask me how that's going to work but you should do it.

The WFM title is just above Woman Candidate Master in the women-only titles given by FIDE. The minimum rating for receiving this title is 2100 and is lower than that of its unrestricted counterpart, FIDE Master (2300).

The November 2011 FIDE rating list records 1126 women holding the WFM title.

I'll try playing. Can I suggest you separate the bracket into 2 tiers though? Good player bracket for people that are not terrible. And then scrub bracket for scrubs? So scrubs don't just get wrecked first round? I'm in either way, but it's just a suggestion, even though I doubt you'll take it.


Pair me up with this arrogant user round one
