This is an unrated tournament and the rules are simple:

  1. You are not playing for checkmate -- the objective for either side is to simlply get your king to your opponent's back rank first.
  2. You must move your king to on the second move.
  3. If your opponent gets his king to your back rank first, you are obligated to resign.
  4. Accidental checkmates will earn you the collective ridicule of the other players in the tournament, while I suspect that you will actually advance as a result, you will advance without honour.
