Well...

I don't see any new entrants. SO I think it's time to set up a deadline.

How about 1 week?

People can sign up until next Sunday, so I can post pairing that Sunday night/ monday.

Does that sound oK?

Sounds good to me.

[Narz]

bump!

So, how many people in Demon?

[DemonAstroth]

OK...

Here is the list of the official entries:

Abba - 2112
Narz - 1663
DemonAstroth - 1547
gorckat - 1450
Fromper - 1376
twoclouds - 1300

(YES, I deducted 100 points of non USCF ratings)

Since it is only 6 of us. I think the best thing will be a round robin.

I think it actually works best, as since this is a test tournament, if we miss a game we can easily make it up, whereas if it was a swiss one would have to forfeit.

So I suppose Sunday will be pairing day.

Sounds good, have we figured out where we're going to play yet?

[DemonAstroth]

You'll play wherever it's easier for you, as long as you can time it for G-60 (60 minutes each, or 55 with a 5 second delay)

Anyway, I will work on pairings right now, and post them soon. You will have until next saturday to submit them, so hopefully you'll be able to find a time to match up.

Ok.... sorry about the delay (internet wasnt' working at work)

Round 1.

W Abba ___ Gorckat B

W Narz ___ Fromper B

Please message your opponents to schedule a time when you both can play.

Should be G-60

And last, please message me or post the results here in this thread.

Thanks,

Just an FYI in case anyone wants to come and watch - Narz and I will be playing at 9 PM east coast USA time (2.5 hours from now) on FICS.

I don't think I'll be able to see it. However, if you post it in the website it would be nice to analyze.
