Let's do a small Fediverse chess tournament! Everyone is welcome to join!

We will play 10-minute games (10+0) on lichess, a free and open-source chess website. You will be assigned an opponent and will have 2 days to schedule and play your match.

I will decide on the structure of the tournament (brackets, groups etc.) based on the number of sign-ups here :)

Signup deadline is Wednesday, 2pm UTC. Shortly after, I'll announce the first pairings :)

Looking forward to some nice matches ❤️

Update:

Active round: 2

eulheim - vincenius 0 - 1

BabaDuda - /

Coolbootyjames - Fabiozeh

library_patron - CrazyMerlyn

@[email protected] Just FYI, but because of the load on lemmy.ml, a lot of the comments and mention notifications on that instance aren't getting through the backlog and federating to other instances. Compare this post to what I currently see through my home instance or what the lemmy.world folks see. In particular, @[email protected] seems to have been left out, and it might be a good idea to send DMs to the lemmy.world people to tell them about your comment.

Anyway, something I wanted to ask, but can't make into a reply to the Round 1 comment yet is what we're doing for colors. Are we randomizing each game, or should we read the person on the left as being White and the person on the right as being Black?

Thanks for letting me know - I'll send an DM

Let's go for random colors :) (makes it easier for me :D)
