Chess tournament anyone?
« on: August 18, 2006, 09:51:51 am »
We can play on yahoo or whatever. Anyone interested? You can register here.

If you're up for a casual game I'd be glad to play that too!

Ah... there's a game I haven't played in years.  I was never the greatest, but at least I know how to play, which is more than I can say for many of my classmates.
errr... something like that...

Haha, exactly.

Ender is really good... he owned me twice.

I'm very interested.
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

Well, if anyone wants to play casually feel free to IM me!

And if you're interested in the tourney, please post. Eight or 16 people would be ideal. I guess it's unreasonable to shoot for an exact number, though, so we'll have to be flexible. What are your thoughts on the minimum number of people for the tourney? Anything too low may be unexciting ~_~. Maybe 8 as a minimum?

8 sounds like a happy minimum. I don't know if we can reach it though.

I'm interested in a tournament. Yahoo = poopy, but I'll get over it.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

I'll play in a tournament, so long as I have nothing to do with organizing it.  :P

Somehow, I suspect you'll emerge a champion. :P

Okay I made a website for registering and showing who's registered, this way I don't have to keep re-announcing who's in and people don't have to keep re-reading the thread. I linked to it in my first post.

Go register! :P
