Thanks for keeping things going Invert.  I've been completely tied down with work.

Congratulations on your victory against Dynobird, I've heard he's very good.

I'll try and finish my game with Shout asap.  It's been kind of hard coordinating things because I have had to unexpectedly go out of town without internet access, and will be doing so again soon.

When I made the rules, I didn't have in mind an "elimination" tournament, but more that we would play a certain number of games, and then the top rated players would face off.  This was just incase #1 and #2 happened to face off in the first round, and one eliminated early despite being a great player and capable of defeating #1.

I have a unique way of matching people that when it comes to the final the 2 best players will play. I got the system from a soccer turnament I was in, you will see.

And you lost the 1st game...tipping the king = loss


On another note, I'm going to set a deadline for the 1st round. When a chess tournament was mention you punks were 1st to sign up but when it comes to playing the games you cant get your shit together.
