Poly chess championship: join us now

[Carolus Rex]

Yes.

When I was younger and passed a couple of standard chess tests to obtain a couple of "marks" (The Golden Knight one was called), I could have sworn (before passing after endless tries) it was impossible to mate with king, knight and bishop against king in less than 50 moves!

I would like to start my final outstanding game with muxec.

I'm playing instead of zorbop, so I'm white in this one.

Here's the link

Hey, a chesstourney on Apolyton... I didn't expect that to happen
Is it possible for me to join a group? (I don't exactly understand your system, so I don't know whether there are still spots available )

Playing games over the looks fun to me, would like to try it out!

It appears that there are enough interested people for another group.
Michael, Sir Ralph do we contact them all via PM to confirm their participation and set up group 2 of our championship?

I beat Pave.

Oh, that is so true!

Games?

My company is cutting internet access and I'm having trouble getting connected from home so my posts are going to be few and far between. If this is ok I'll continue playing but if I'm dragging my feet too much I'll understand if you have to replace me. Damn!
