Chess. An old Indian board game played by smart people, people who want to look smart, and computers. This traditional game for eons has never really solved any world problems such as famine or war, but yet is idolized in our culture. And what way should we endear ourselves than to organize a chess game between our members! This is the offical chess board in our tournament. As you can see, nothing is different. Just a straight-up game of chess, with no strings attached. So, we need eight people to get this to work. As your friendly neighborhood Chess Master, I won't play. But I will be overseeing each game and updating the chessboards after every move. All the players have to do is tell me their moves, and I'll do the rest. When we get 8 people, I'll randomize brackets. Then I'll determine who gets white, and who gets black. After that, all white players make their thread, and post their move. I'll then post with an updated chess board, and then black posts their move. The game then continues until checkmate is achieved. Recap on posting order: White-me-black-me-white-me-black-me, etc Once the first games are up, the winner moves up in the bracket, and the loser is out. The person who won their game with the least moves gets white, and the other gets black. It is then the same. Sign-Ups 1. Blah 2. Digi 3. Atomic Sunday 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

I'm not sure if you'll find 8 people here interested in playing a chess tournament But it doesn't hurt to try, I guess. Count me in.

...You know that there's a chess.com right? A lot more efficient than this post-per-move thing here.
I haven't played the game in ages, since I have a lack of people to play with, but I may as well give it a shot. I'm probably no good at it anymore though. xD
