Do you like the Rockets? Do you know how to play chess? If so, then sign up today for the first ever Clutch City Chess Tournament! The winner will receive a prize package of Rockets merchandise! There will also be minor prizes for the second and third place finishers*. Post here if you want to participate. I would like to get at least 10 participants for this to go ahead. The first round will be a round robin type of format to determine seeding. After seeding is established, a bracket will be drawn up. The only requirement is that you know the rules of chess. You don't have to be good. If you know how to play, then sign up today! Games will take place on Yahoo, so you must sign up for a Yahoo ID. A schedule will be drawn up once participants have been established. If you haven't played chess on Yahoo before, then I recommend signing up for a Yahoo ID today and playing around a bit to get used to their format. Post here if you want to participate! * the 2nd and 3rd place prizes are pretty pathetic... the grand prize is really nice, though!
You guys should check out itsyourturn.com havent been on it but saw my teacher playing on it one day, not sure if you can chat or not, think it might be a little better than yahoo, but again i havent been there and played before, just a suggestion.
I suck, but I'm game. ID: criscofire note* I don't think my email is up to date there. Or anywhere, for that matter.
I suck also but Ill play. Yahoo ID: Wolffeet Have you guys ever played on http://www.caissa.com/ Requires registration but it's free and very user friendly
I was thinking of setting up a pool tournament on Yahoo. Shot some pool on yahoo a couple of times, it's not bad. Used to play chess at pogo.com. Much more user friendly than Yahoo IMHO. Count me in fade, although I haven't played chess in awhile.
I've been on spring break one day and brain cells are already dying. Yahoo ID: Falcons_Talon1 DUHHHH!!!
9 people so far. That's excellent. I'll give people until tomorrow afternoon/evening to sign up and then I'll draft a schedule for round robin play.
Well I just got dusted TWICE by a person with a 1286 rating I kinda remember why I stopped playing in the first place
We'll start the first round tomorrow afternoon/evening. I'll do up a little schedule and explain how to go about things then.
