First Announcement
I'm going to organise a knock-out tournament, which means that if you lose, you will be out. If it is a draw in the match, I will toss a Dutch coin here at home!

If you want to join, please say 'yes' with your rating, like 'the 1400s' or something. And because i'm not sure, you may tell me if i must join!
It'll start when there are alot people, i think in one or two weeks

Good luck in advance,
Bert Dekker

Rules:

  • When the schedule is ready, the white player (i´ll do that random) must challenge the black player within three days
  • The time control must be 1/2/3/5 days, to make it quick. Please discuss the time control with your opponent
  • Name the game: ´1st Knockout Tournament´
  • When the game is finished, paste the result from your GameArchive, so i can follow the link
  • Then i will post in the Schedule/Result the result with the players going on in green, the players who are k.o. are then in red
  • For questions about the rules, please post below and i answer ASAP!
