YWS Chess Tournament! May 2014

29 posts in this topic.

  1. Welcome everyone! I've decided to host the first YWS Chess tournament. Here's how it's going to work.

    The tournament will run as a four round Swiss. I will do the pairings using a secret recipe.

    Now. You have an entire week to get connected with your opponent and play the game on whichever site you like, be it on here, on chess.com, on chesscubes, or on multiplayerchess. Also you get to choose your own time control, assuming you can choose your own time control. That is between you and your opponent!

    Both players must submit the results, and any final decision is reserved for the Tournament Director AKA. PiesAreSquared.

    I will give Prizes for the following placements:

    1st Place: 500 points and a Yoda gift

    2nd Place: 300 points and a Agnes Gru gift

    3rd Place: 100 points and a Puss-in-Boots gift


    Sign up below!
  2. In though I haven't practised in ages!
  3. aye aye
  4. I'll try to get more humen!
  5. I know I'm going to get murdered, but why not? Sign me up.
  6. I'm in!
  7. Great! We will start on the 14th or 15th, depending on the day for me!
  8. And now! To War, my hearties!~

    In the order of their joining, the participants list are as follows:

    1. PiesAreSquared
    2. Alexsushidog
    3. Judas
    4. Killjo03
    5. ShadowVyper
    6. Queerelves

    It must be mentioned by this scatterbrained director that the person who is named first aka PLayer X vs. Player Y, player X would be the person mentioned first, will take the white pieces.

    For this first round, we will have

    B1: Queerelves vs. Judas

    B2: ShadowVyper vs. Alexsushidog

    B3: Killjoy03 vs. PiesAreSquared


    Have fun killing each other! At the board of course!
  9. Well, I forgot my appointment and so forfeited. Bad luck to me! :/

    B3: Killjoy03 vs. PiesAreSquared 1-0
  10. B2: ShadowVyper vs. Alexsushidog 1-0

    And now we wait on B1.
  11. Sorry that I didn't reply earlier, but I am definitely in!
  12. Wait what? O_o
  13. Well, wizard, I'm sorry but we've already started! I'll see if I can accommodate you the next time.

    Sorry to the rest for my lackluster directing! The next round will begin on Monday. And then there will be until Sunday to play and post the results here.

    Love you all.
  14. For this first round, we have

    B1: Queerelves vs. Judas 1/2-1/2 Because the game was never scheduled. :(

    B2: ShadowVyper vs. Alexsushidog 1-0 Because Alex had to cancel :(

    B3: Killjoy03 vs. PiesAreSquared 1-0 Because I forgot to play. >:O

    So the pairings for Round Two (we’ll have three rounds) will be as follows, and you will have until Sunday to play.


    B1: Judas vs. ShadowVyper

    B2: Queereleves vs. Killjoy03

    B3: Alexsushidog vs. PiesAreSquared
