Title: Chess tournament anyone?
Post by: Ender on August 18, 2006, 09:51:51 AM
We can play on yahoo or whatever. Anyone interested? You can register here. (http://64.9.205.64/~andrew/random/signup.pl)

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

Ooh! Ooh! Me! Me!

I'm not very good, but I like playing chess.

We can play right now and plan a tourney if/when more people post ^.^

Message me on AIM.

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.

Haha, exactly.

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

Mebbe.  My AIM should be in my profile.  Hit me up some time.

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.

yahoo completely redid their chess applet, it's pretty awesome now.

So so far we have 6 people interested...

I'm not too good, haven't played in ages, but I suppose if you need another player, I'm in.

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

Still can't castle.

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

Really?  I was pretty sure you could in the old one... How are you trying to do it?
