Illarion chess competition (register for next tourney)

Post by Vilarion »

Over the time I met some Illarion players who are interested in chess, so here it is:

An Illarion chess competition.

Each player will have one hour per game, so a game will last 2 hours at the most. To sign up for this tourney you need to register with http://www.freechess.org and let me know your handle there. Just post underneath. Also it would be helpfull to familiarize yourself with their servers basic commands. The tourney will start when there is a nice number of participants, but in one week at the latest. Each round of the tourney will last up to a week, so that you have enough time to meet with your opponent.

May the games begin, good luck!

Players who joined:
(players on this list can type td j 1 to join the tourney on the server)

  • Cliu Beothach (Crumpert)
  • Amras Telemnar (Skamato)

bah, not getting a gmail account accepted, and dont feel like getting a different account. another chess option would be better. In fact, why dont Illarion devs write up a chess script? Kinda like UO's, chess boards that open up. Now that you think of it, UO at the same time is also a chess program. trippy. Illa could double as that too :D

No really it didn't, it says on the website, anyway I am getting manually registered now.

Edit : Well after a succession of weird stuff preventing me to register, I finally succeeded, my handle is "Arameh".

I'm up for it, but I'm also having problems registering, although they're a bit different.

My email blocked them instead of the other way around.

Those on the list should log in and type: td j 1
That will make them join the tourney. Faineant is about to be added.
We will start with 8 or ten players. So come on and join!

Addendum: you need to login at least once, to be added to the invite list. This applies to Korwin.

No, if you did that already, then you are all fine. Only Korwin is now missing in there. Added him to the list

Nice Vilarion :P

Hopefully I'll get to play that game with Korwin soon, though I believe (not certain) that he lives in Europe and if it's so we might have to wait for the weekend because of the timezones.

Edit : Which Martin is it, the admin Martin? Nitram? or?
