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!

Nice idea

"Haedrian" is my handle...

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 2:39 am**

I'd probably join but I get the dumb message

"We are extremely sorry but after huge problems with people using free email-addresses, we have been forced to deny registrations using such email-addresses. "

and I don't have an email address that costed me money

you can login as a guest (leaving the handle blank) and list all admins online with showa. then you can tell them about your problem with: tell admin_name_here Hello, I have a problem. My email......

Skamato = My Handle

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 5:17 am**

Up to now each time I tryied all the GMs were "off duty" and not answering..

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 9:43 am**

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

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 10:01 am**

Or we use CHARACTERS as chess pieces

(for some reason, I have the feeling this was done before..)

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 10:18 am**

actually someone with access to the test server showed me this, where you could make miniature people and objects here this could be an interesting game of chest use these guys

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 3:38 pm**

Wait until it starts

I had the same problem until i used a trash-mail. Use a email-adress from this site http://trash-mail.com and you will get access.

Oh and my Handle is "Ardian".

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 3:51 pm**

My trash mail account didn't work either.

Arameh wrote:My trash mail account didn't work either.

it took me 3 minutes to get the reply, worry not

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 4:09 pm**

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".

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 4:41 pm**

Ardian and Arameh added

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 7:33 pm**

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.

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 7:36 pm**

talk to an admin there or set them on your whitelist

Posted: **Sun Feb 03, 2008 8:12 pm**

Alright, I got it sorted out. My handle is "Faineant".

Posted: **Tue Feb 05, 2008 7:59 pm**

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!

Posted: **Tue Feb 05, 2008 10:08 pm**

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

I must do this every time when i login?

Posted: **Tue Feb 05, 2008 11:03 pm**

Alright, I logged in once.

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

Posted: **Wed Feb 06, 2008 12:28 am**

The tourney is now closed and has started. Please talk to your opponent to decide for a time to play.

Posted: **Wed Feb 06, 2008 7:35 pm**

The first game has been decided. See above.

Posted: **Thu Feb 07, 2008 2:48 am**

Nice Vilarion

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?
