Easygoing Eyebeast keira Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) oi i don't think the presence or lack thereof of things between my legs is relevant for the discussion of chess. thanks. as for the pgn thing, yeah the end result is off but the chess notation is correct and that's all that matters. sorry to hear about you not being able to compete, BMA (but if you're just gone for a week why not just sit out the week's match or make it up afterwords, if goldenking is chill with that?) Edited November 12, 2012 by Sylae also baren von whatever, just a biology/dating tip, females are not another species just trust me on this one Aran 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BMA Vs Goldenking => Goldenking wins) I accept your resignation. Later, at the end of the tournament, we can make that match up, if you want. For now though, let's just proceed full steam ahead.

Magnificent Ornk Aran Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Since we're not on knockout rules; in theory the round should be just a guideline. Matches can happen in any order, and it'll probably take weeks to finish most of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast keira Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 Yeah sure that'll work. Just play whoever and I'll stick them on the scoresheet. Let's try to keep at least a game-a-week pace at least though, so this gets done eventually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Aran Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 At literally one game a week, we'll be done in 2015 (if everyone plays one game a week it's closer to six months) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understated Ur-Drakon Callie Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Wow, we guys could be like in the record books for the longest tournament ever, let's maintain the pace . I would be unsurprised if there were chess tournaments of longer duration. It's a game that people can play by correspondence after all.

Garrulous Glaahk The Reincarnated Baron von Steuben Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Is it too late to take BMA's spot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Seasons of Destiny Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 -sigh- You see? This is why I should check in the General forum more often... Would I have to wait until, as Aran put it, 2015 or so to join, or will there be an opening soonish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Aran Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 The double round robin rules means the number of games grows quadratically. I guess that's why Sylae closed it after 12 entrants; we already have 132 matches and another would make it 156. Maybe it could be more manageable if the next tournament were split in two groups followed by a match between the best four. Or something.

Easygoing Eyebeast keira Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 that's not only you. The author of the chess program used some, um, bad practices, and my PHP is set to get butthurt. I'll toss a couple lines into an htaccess and fix it soon.

Ineffable Wingbolt Mosquito---Slayer Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I was thinking that if some people are still interested we could still manage a shorter tournament or something, so if you are interested post below, if we can get 6 people or so, I will post the format I've in my mind.
