Grand Tournament game ghowcase thread

I'm making this the night before the Grand tournament so it's there

If you're playing in it tomorrow, put a game or two that you're proud of/found interesting/was important for the results of the tournament and we'll select some to put in the tournament recap

Regards

Thanks, I'll put in a game or two if I end up thinking it's important. I'll add annotations and comments once I have time (have a otb tournament right after grand)

DasBurner

also, who's writing it? I know you want to but you're gonna need some assistance as it took me like an hour to do 5 games last time and it's going to be bigger tommorow

Lucky grin.png My local chess club isn't beginning to meet until late July and probably no USCF rated games until at least August.

nonono just leave it blank so the annotation style is consistent throughout the recap (if that makes sense)

I live in Florida so I've had OTB since February but got back into it in March

Ah, I see. That does make sense.

@KeSetoKaiba is also an amazing chess write fyi 

I really enjoyed @DaBabysBurner last recap, it was so passionate and awesome!

I know @little_guinea_pig wants to write to...

 

I mean it’s totally up to you guys how you wanna do it.

 

There may be soo many people that join and play, and soo many great games maybe it’d be even better if y’all worked together and split it up 

I could do two games, but we'd need DaBabysBurner to write the "framing," the importance of the game in the scheme of the tournament.

I feel like I'm going to lose because I am bound to play at least one 1600 player.
