Rules

1. A standard Bongcloud Opening must be used, see Conquistador's Bongcloud Opening Book for a list.

2. Make it noticeable that your goal is to get your King to the other side, not just march him accross in an endgame, use him durring the entire match

3. Post finnished Games Here.

4. Be good sports, no cheeting, don't use Pocketcloud 2.0bc, Kingspeak, or other Bongcloud engines.

Thank you in advance for participating.

Sign me up!

oh, and once all the spots are filled up, I will announce the pairings, Drawn from a hat, all white players first, then all black.  After that, The player playing as WHITE will send a challange, just make sure you mark it as a Bongcloud Championship game. And report anyone not using a listed variation.

im in!

Its Updated

I'll play. There has already been a bongcloud though. People here have played in them

count me in... but I don't know how you are going to make this championship, since in chess.com, to reach the other side with the king is not considered a win.

I will advance the person manualy, because it won't use the tournoment feature.

Ah! It doesn''t say I can't mate! Win for me! His King is forced to stop moving while mine goes past! Mwahhaah!

http://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/bongcloud-invitational There we go! That's the link.

I loved that one! Thank you good sir! For bringing the best opening ever back to life! Many consider it an underhand trick and call it "bad". I applaud you for your wisdom!

well that is of cource a stipulation Jerry, nice try though, I am thinking  that it should be a draw, because the only way for the player to make it to the other side first is to checkmate the opponent. which is a loss under the current rules.

You guys are stupid

If some one can post the remaining BCO variaitons in a game diagram, that would be helpful for those who can't read algebraic notation

so... are you goona add my variation?

Conquistador has to, not sure he is here though
