@ricky7uio why did you resign?
You can see the bracket on Challonge. Winner goes to secound. These winners of secound fight for the win. So max 3 games if you win the first 2.
Ok ok, I got confused by “2nd game: Rick…” I thought they played to games against each other. But it was just second game of the tournament actually, got it got it
I didn’t, sadly @TommyDon lost connection in a critical moment of the match, so I won due to abandonment.
It was a very anticlimactic end to a very interesting match.
Maybe replay? If you both agree.
Yes for sure! I’m more than happy to rematch. It was just a bit difficult to find a slot to play since we are in different time zones. Yesterday we played almost at midnight (my time).
@Criptix maybe something worth considering for future events.
Your right about timezones. The good thing is I can setup tournaments without playing myself witch means that I can setup for different timezones.
I am learning with this test tournament .
And maybe also set a time and date to play these games like they would be on chess.com.
I am planning to get user info via polls on the ChessUp discord. So we can get these tournaments rolling and get the ChessUp community & the ChessUp club on chess.com so active as possible.
So I am happy some ppl wanted to do this test tournament and want to thank them for it
We also have the possibility to host round robin tournaments so everyone plays everyone and there we can host per timezone and elo for ex. But then we need a fixed date and time.
Just some things to think about.
So sorry everyone for the inconvenience. @ricky7uiomif if you are okay with a rematch I would be more than happy to play you again, as it was a really good match. Once again, I’m really sorry
Hello Criptix,
Birbdude26 and Kylesmith340 have decided to take the draw as we could not find a time to play.
Sorry to hear. I submitted the draw score. For the future I will organize per continent. Discord polls will be coming this week so you can give us your input on how we move forward with this. Another lesson from the test tournament
For sure, no problem!
Yes this would be much appreciated as this is the reason we could not find a time to play. Thank you for considering this issue and letting us know about it.
May I join?

Also, what is the Discord?
The test tournament is in progress but new once will come shortly.
Discord link click ChessUp
@TommyDon & @ricky7uiomif did you guys found the time to replay the game?
Hey man, sorry. We didn’t manage to play. Finding a time slot with the time zone difference has been a bit tricky. Tom suggested a daily match, but to be honest, I really wanted to play exclusively on the board.
Since it’s just a test tournament, I’m totally fine if you want to flip a coin or give the spot to Tom instead.
Thank you!
We found the time to play today:
Chess: TomAstro13 vs ricky7uio - 142336808903 - Chess.com
Ok tomorrow I update Challonge.
