i doubt anyone here is that much of a yahoo chess geek that they'd cheat. anyways... you might as well give it a try... a free syringe is worth it.. and you make up your own time to play so it's not like you gotta rush home from work or anything

I would love to play, but I'm an intermediate player, I'm not that great at it yet. Good luck to all, and I have yahoo and will play if anyone wants to play for fun.

Letto said: I don't think the rounds should be best out of 3 games, because then someone gets white twice (an advantage, no matter how small some may think it is).
How about a match of two games, then if it's tied, it goes to two more games, or one with a random drawing of the colors?
I like the idea about chosing the random color if a third game is required. I'm not going to be monitoring anything. It will be everyone's responsibility to schedule their own games, so whoever's playing will have to find some way of deciding who gets what color.
So are the matches the best out of 3 games, or a match of two games (each person gets white once) and a third game is played only if the score is tied after two?
The only reason I'm asking is that after two games, the score could be 1.5 - .5 (one win and one draw), and in a best of 3, one more game would have to be played, but in a two game match, it would be over.
Agreed. 1.0 for a win ... 0.5 for a tie. Highest score after 2 games wins. If the score is tied... well.. you just KEEP on playing until someone comes out ahead. And like I said.. who gets what color is decided by the players... not me...

If any of you guys are still interested... this first round mike take a little while. If I can get another 16 people intereted in the next few days, maybe we can get a second bracket going and add one extra round. If anyone is still interested, pM me.. hopefully we can get 16 more ppl I went a day with only two people expressing their interest, and we just barely got the 16 filled so I figured we'd start... but now more ppl are msging me... I think we can probably get this second bracket started.
