    Default EoFF Chess!

    I'm going to try and organize a EoFF chess! Merely post if you want to play!

    I have a really easy way that I can set this up off the top of my head.

    Using yahoo chess, we can play set up times to play each other! The first match will be whoever VS. me. Then the winner will continue to play matches till they lose. The matches will be set up with agreed times. These times could be impulsive like "Hey lets go right now!" Or set it up like... "I can't play right now, but tomorrow night I'll be ready.

    No Redos, but you can reface someone who already beat you if they beat 2 people after you.

    Let's play some Chess!

    Stickied maybe?


    Edit: To use yahoo chess, all you need is a yahoo email account. Yahoo email is free so don't worry ;o

    Double Edit: Also post even if there is already a schedualed match, this will go into a first come first serve basis. If you say "I want to play winner" then you'll get to play winner.

    Triple Edit: If anyone thinks they have a better way to do this, please, do tell, I'd like an easier way too

    Quad edit o.O: To get to where we will be playing follow directions

    yahoo.com->games->board->chess->go now->play now->tab: beginner->learner's lounge 5

    I'll cover setting up a game once I'm out of the hunt ;o

    Alright then, the first match will be against me. Are you ready now?

    It sounds complicated. :P Maybe a tournament bracket would be better.

    I wasn't sure if I would get enough people for a tournament. Its actually pretty simple. Its a play till you lose set up.

    I'd be up for another EoFF Chess Tournament. I took part last time and didn't do as bad as I expected (I won a game) and I'm probably a better player now than I was then.
    Not my words Carol, the words of Top Gear magazine.

    Aerith's Knight beat me, I sucked pretty bad, but hopefully that'll shake off the rust off me

    Anyway. That means Aerith's Knight V. Sagensyg is next. You two sheduale a time and I'll explain how you guys could create a private table for you to play once you have.

    Yeah. I can play 17 Hours from now and maybe later on. I'd play right now, but I don't have that much time.
