My poorest performance so far!!!

It's has to do with the fact that I am having problem with my office concerning renumeration and it's really affecting my concentration. Watch for me when I get over this.

Since there were players whose ranking went above 1700, i removed them from the tournament and was waiting for the count to become 50. But anyway, here you go. The tournament started. All the best guys.

Hi  MISTNINJA,

Actually, e4c5 is my user ID. It has nothing to do with the opening of the tournament.

Cheers, Jay

I was looking at the name and it says e4,c5.  Are those the first two moves everyone should make or are you going to change the starting position to e4..c5.  No big deal just wondering if you want us to start a certain way.

You r welcome Lee (Redspecial)

Actually I thought of designing a tournament of size 100 and 3 will qualify for the next round. But I'm not sure whether we will get 100 players within 1550-1700. So changed the tournament settings.

But if you guys/gals make your friends to join this tournament, we can make this as a big one with 100 players. We'll have more fun.

 

Cheers, Jay
