I have setup the tournament as a Double Elimination. Which means that whoever loses 2 times leaves the tournament. With a first loss you play further in the losers bracket to try to play further there.
If you want to join give you Challonge name in this topic and I’ll add you asap.
It would be nice if there are 1 or 2 players who want to help as admin for this tournament because I wont play this one myself. Post here if you want to be admin of the tournament plz!
There is no starting time yet, I will see how fast ppl join and how many. I will communicate the starting time via a reply here and also change the main topic with this information.
Rules:
For ppl of the EU only (it’s easier to find a playing time this way!)
Timecontrol 15/10
Timeframe/game 1 week max, sooner if possible
How it works:
Look at the brackets on Challonge and see you opponent. Friend him on chess.com. One challenge the other OTB on the ChessUp2.
It is possible to talk to each other on the channels created for this purpose on Discord. This gives a personal touch to the chess match. ChessUp Discord.
Every player (with his Challonge account) can enter the score after the game. It’s also possible to add a file or a link to the game, plz enter there the game link on chess.com.
Just to make sure I’ve joined the correct server (I believe I already have a few months ago…): Is the Discord server called “ChessUp”? When looking into the Events tab of that discord, I see no events… Is this event only available to join via this page?
Also: I’ve just created a “Challonge” account and can’t find the tournament in order to enroll into it (EU).
Yes that’s the Discord.
I need (or if someone wants to be an admin he can) to enter your username into the tournament. Because if I open up anyone can join.
I would also be up for this and also happy to lend a hand with admin if you still need someone as I have a little bit of experience after helping with the test event. Kylesmith240 on Challonge .
