ACE CHESS TOURNEY! 100K+ FREE ENT!

Post by alcon »

This is just to see what kind of interested there would be, because due to the chance of some chess games going longer than others and how many people are interested, it may be spread out. Basically, it's what the title says.... a Chess Tourney with prizes being at the minimum 100k and no entrance fee (however donations would be welcome.) Each board will be moderated by an ACE member, and possibly people outside of ACE depending on if we trust them or not. In the event of a stalemate, the winner will be decided by a 1v1 in the Thunder dome, which is the duel pit in ACEopolis. If there is an issue, and a moderator is unable to resolve it, then the players will either be DQed... or they can take it to the Thunder Dome! If a moderator believes that someone is purposely trying to cheat or if someone causes an issue, that will also rate a DQ. Date(s) and more specific rules will be set once we see how many people are interested.

Chess boards are broken, if you look at the board, all of the squares are backwards, the rule is white on right, queen on color, but the lower right hand square (a,8) is black, not white.
Get Derrick to fix this and I will join for sure.

Ok, well worst case I am sure we can at least get a GM to change it on the boards we'll be using. I'll also PM derrick about that right now and post an update once he responds.

Hey guys, I've been talking with Derrick and he is as excited as I am for this. We may get special boards, and he's going to keep me updated. If not I'll throw a poll of playing as the board is (even if the colors are off, but Queens still wear their shoes) or if we have mods switch the pieces so you face your side instead of facing behind them. Bright side is, the longer it takes the more the loot increases (i ressed my red in stat).
