Hi guys, I mixed up the dimensions when talking about them here. The UN square is currently 3x3. All of that is enemy controlled territory. There will be up to three matches. I am currently in the middle of sending out the challenges so that you guys can attack the outer squares of the enemy territory. As soon as you win your first match, you basically advance into the next enemy line, and can start your next match 2 days after the previous one. Until the event ends, you are not allowed to use the territories that were given to you for the event to attack other clubs. Your regular territories are perfectly fine though.

Anything in a 3x3 box in the top right corner is part of the event. This includes the UN box (reduced to 2x2) and all the squares surrounding it.

Right, but my club in D13 is not in contact with either A14, B14, or B15.

Your club should have been given a new territory, check the map.

Challenges have been sent. If it was declined on your end let me know, and I will re-issue one. Fanwings, I can seem to get a challenge through to you guys. I think someone keeps declining it on your end. Please check and let me know.

I've been told that this VC is one day per move. We talked about that in the other competition, in the future please give all information.

Standard for VC is 3 days, if you don't say anything people will assume it's a 3 dpm match, not a 1dpm.

1dpm does not allow discussions prior to voting in teams spread around several time zones.

Hi, one of my admins declined the VC, sorry! Could you resend the challenge?

Although this is true, 3dpm matches could last half a year or more, so it would be best to do 1dpm for this league.

Agreed. But still, all relevant info must be given prior to registration or this will lead to trouble. My admins were very confused to get a 1dpm challenge from a league when we have a rule not to accept them.

Yeah, that makes sense.

Also, could there be a game name so everyone knows it is a league match?

3dpm will take this event until the end of the year to finish. 2dpm will take 2 months. I wish there was a 36 hour per side option because that would be ideal, but there isn't. After weighing the pros and cons of 1 vs 2 day per move, I decided to go with 1 day to reflect the speed theme of the event (it is supposed to be more of a all of a sudden like event).

Challenges being sent out again for those that haven't accepted. I will also push back the start time to Sunday at 12:00PM EST.

Avatar of rohithbala

it has also now come to my attention that the games are automatically starting. I will have to abort the one against JRR Tolkien since that was accepted and already started

Avatar of The_Blue_Streak

You cannot set the Votechess times....

If we accept, then they start....

Avatar of The_Blue_Streak

Should I still accept all the votechess matches?

Btw i got a total of 5

Avatar of The_Blue_Streak

So do we get to keep two territories??

Avatar of rohithbala

alright, we'll do it the other way around then. Everyone please send a 1 day per move VC challenge to: https://www.chess.com/club/the-northeastern-devil

Please do not put any restrictions such as amount of games played to be able to join, minimum rating, or anything like that. Please also set your side to white, not random. No description is needed, but if you can, make the title Northeastern Event - Galactic Conflict [CW 2025]

I will accept all matches Sunday at 12 PM EST.
