titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted February 11, 2012 Ok, rockford, knowdoubt, & awoodness, you have invites. Log in to chess.com and accept. Bunny, I need to know your username to invite you. So right now we're at six, I'd like to at least get to 10. Cmon dooshes. Oh, btw, this is how this will work... This is a correspondence tournament. Each player has three days to make their move. Then the other side goes. You play two games, one at a time, against each opponent. A win gets you a point, a draw gets you .5. Most points wins. So this is not a live online thing. It could, conceivably, take months to complete, if some dooshbag slowrolls it. Or it could be over in three days. You never know. I made the FFT logo the trophy, so (prolly shoulda asked mikey first, but I figure he'll like the advertising right?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SUXBNME 1,324 Posted February 12, 2012 A group of chess enthusiasts had checked into a hotel, and were standing in the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse. "But why?" they asked, as they moved off. "Because," he said, "I can't stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer."

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted February 13, 2012 If a pawn reaches the otherside does it "become" a queen ? You get a choice, you can promote to a bishop, knight, rook, or queen. 99% of the time, you will promote to a queen of course. THere are rare situations where a queen would cause stalemate, or a knight will cause a mate, and then you underpromote. jocstrap all lower case - try that I've sent friend invites to those of you who posted your name on the site...

edjr 5,552 Posted February 13, 2012 Snookslayer still waiting on tourney invite. I tried to challenge you and this is what I got back. Oops?! We noticed the following errors in your form:Snookslayer has a minimum time control of 1 move per 13 days. 1 move every 13 days? Sure, I'll come back in March to make my 2nd move Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GobbleDog 816 Posted February 13, 2012 The reason I set it to 14 days per move is because as a non-premium member, my "vacation days" are limited. Therefore I make all games 14 days just in case, but I actually make several moves per day. I did play someone once who did take all 14 days. Damn game literally lasted 1 year. But honestly I don't care how long people take because I'm never leaving. Cmon ed, challenge me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jocstrap 8 Posted February 13, 2012 I've lost 3x's already and had a draw. Why is it a draw when you take all your opponents pieces and he's only left with the King? What a bunch of sh!t. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edjr 5,552 Posted February 13, 2012 I've lost 3x's already and had a draw. Why is it a draw when you take all your opponents pieces and he's only left with the King? What a bunch of sh!t. it is only a draw if your opponent has only a king left and moves the king 10 times, OR if he only has a king left and his only move left puts him into check. a king cannot put itself into check. You need to know these rules when you play so you don't get screwed. also, accept my friend request. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
