Wow this all happened very quickly! I just saw the post now. Anyway, I’ve signed up and the username is JuliusBj.

So, what time-control do we play? And is everyone befriended on Chess.com…?

That is a good question :grin:. I would take 15/10 as timecontrol and the ppl in the bracket have to friend their opponent. Didn’t think this over, organizing took my brainpower hahaha.

Sorry, so I never gave my chess.com username to the discord (TomAstro13).

Now do I just invite who I’m playing through Chess.com?

If so, (Hi @ricky7uio!) would you please share your chess.com username so I can friend you, mine is up above.

Thank you so much, @Criptix, for putting in the work to organize this!

Score is submitted. (I don’t see it no more inside the tournament options but I think it’s possible that the players can imput their own score. Maybe something for the next real attempt.)

Thanks @Criptix for this initiative, had a lot of fun playing with @rudivanhest even if I lost but the rating didn’t lie ahahahah, he’s much better rated than I’m. Nice job Rudi

Hi Jeff, this tournament is a test tournament to see if it works, how it works and to give me time to think things through.
When we had 8 ppl, 4 bracket of 2 and 3 rounds I started this. So the tournament is live atm.
I had to invite the players manually (could do it in bulk the first time) and I am looking if it’s possible to just join.
Gone send you an email later today with some questions :blush:.
