Well, because everybody will never be in one place at one time, Ginkasa gave me a good idea. Instead of holding the tourney in one place at one time. You and your opponent can find your own date, time, and place to play your game. This way, everyone can play with out having to owrry about forgetting.

When you are done with your game, post the results in here, then the next round/match can commence. I will only permit 5 days per round of the tourney so that it doesn't take forever to complete it.

Winners in bold.

Round 1:
Yoda9864 vs. Ginkasa

GameMaster vs. Perfect Stu

Stonecutter vs. BLuFire

Rndm_perfectoin vs. happydude666

Gimpy_Wannabee vs. Lord Germano forfeit

Kitana85 vs. Crono

ominub vs. Joiess

Jonbo298 vs. Shadow Link

ROUND 2

Yoda9864 vs. GameMaster

Stonecutter vs. happydude666

Crono gets a free round because of an incomplete match

ominub vs. Jonbo298

ROUND 3
Yoda9864 vs. happydude666

Crono vs. ominub

Championship Round
Yoda9864 vs. ominub

And the winner of the chess tournament is:
Yoda9864

What browser are you using? Internet Explorer works with the site I know, and you also may need to disable pop-up killers to get to a table. That was the problem with my browser. Now it works. :)

hmmm, i do use IE, and no pop up thingers, but it still doesn't work, i get some java related error...could i switch with either Jonbo or Shadow link???

Ginkasa

The order in which the games are listed doesn't matter. Your match could take place after Shadow Link's and Jonbo's if you and Lord Germano don't figure out when you're playing.

I'll add you to my AIM list. Whenever I see you online, I'll give you a message.

Yoda9864

07-10-2003, 11:30 PM

Yes, that's why I set it up this way. You can play anytime, anywhere, you just have to get your game done before 7-14-03, then round 2 will begin.

Jonbo298

07-11-2003, 10:42 AM

When do you want to play Shadow? Let me know either here, or on AIM. (Jonbo222)

Happydude

Err, thenwhy the "AIM Screen Name" in your profile? Oh well, I'll give you a private message if I see you at GameTavern. And, if that doesn't work... how about tomorrow at 8 EST? Or, you could make the time, I don't care... because I have nowhere to go.

Crono

07-11-2003, 06:30 PM

Well, Kitana and I played, and I won. So, Yoda, if you don't mind, update the list when you get the chance.

Rndm_Perfection

07-12-2003, 06:41 PM

HappyDude666, we're both online. Check your private messages for more details.

Shadow_Link

07-13-2003, 05:03 PM

I won't be able to play a match today, so I've just quickly come on to tell you lot. I guess Jonbo wins by default.

Happydude

07-14-2003, 01:24 AM

yay i won...it was a good match...really close :)

we should play again some time rndm :)

*cuts the match's tension with a knife* Very close. We both seemed to do a good job of reading eachother's moves. So, is this game double elimination? Huh, huh? *nudge, nudge*

I'll play again sometime. Despite how difficult the match was, it was fun.

07-14-2003, 04:28 PM

Good, that's what I want it to be, fun. That jsut leaves Lord Germano's game. you got till Midnight tonight guys.

Yoda9864

07-15-2003, 11:44 AM

Next round is posted at beginning of thread. Get your games done guys. Gimpy and Germano didn't get theirs in and forfeited the round.

Crono

07-15-2003, 12:01 PM

Lol, good thing I got a free round.. I'm about to leave, and won't be back til friday..

GameMaster

07-15-2003, 12:57 PM

Great! I got pitted against the best chess player here! I'm doomed. :(

Rndm_Perfection

07-15-2003, 02:54 PM

That side of the bracket has a lot of tough competition.

Lol, good thing I got a free round.. I'm about to leave, and won't be back til friday..
:lol: You're going to get so far like that. Way to go Crono!

GameMaster

07-15-2003, 07:28 PM

Alas, Yoda defeated me. :(

Happydude

07-15-2003, 11:39 PM

why am i not surprised?

anyhoo...me and stonecutter have yet to face each other in a battle to the dea....wait...wrong tournament:sneaky:...but we still have a chess match to play

Happydude

07-16-2003, 12:16 AM

well...we played...the game was good...SC, you gotta improve your technique and be a little more defensive...other then that it was a fun game...

ohh and yeah...i won :)

im guessing next game will be me VS. Yoda...looking farward to it...goin to be hard.

ominub

07-16-2003, 10:31 AM

ha ha ha jonbo i kicked your a$$ good game i wonder who i will play next

GameMaster

07-22-2003, 02:08 PM

I guess Ominub is the winner since Yoda and Happydude didn't play their game yet. Or at least it's not indicated that you guys have played?

Happydude

07-22-2003, 06:07 PM

I guess Ominub is the winner since Yoda and Happydude didn't play their game yet. Or at least it's not indicated that you guys have played?
havn't played yet...planning on it today...but i gotta work 6-10pm est.

so gonna be kinda hard to set up a match :unsure:

I guess Ominub is the winner since Yoda and Happydude didn't play their game yet. Or at least it's not indicated that you guys have played?

If Ominub were to be declared winner by default... "Uuuuuuuugh" would sum up my feelings.

I'm gonna bend the rules a tad and give myself and happydude a little bit longer to get our game done. We've tried a couple times to play, but couldn't play because of technical difficulties.

Besides, It would be very stupid if someone won by default, unless ominub insists that he win like that, but i don't think he does.

Ominub, go for the cheap win!

Forget your pride and anythig else!

Bask in the joys of being a winner!

You could be the Hi-Lite of the Night.. wait that's me.. well if you find someone to steal a name from, then you can be that!

:)

ominub

07-22-2003, 08:47 PM

no im going to play and try to win

Rndm_Perfection

07-22-2003, 08:52 PM

no im going to play and try to win

And, while you may not win... I'll at least add to your rep.

Yoda9864

07-23-2003, 12:57 AM

After a slight delay, I conquered happydude666. On to the championship round!

Yoda9864

07-23-2003, 01:20 AM

Yeah!! I won my game against ominub!.... that is all, lol.

So, I guess there is really no prize. I guess I could ask people to give rep to the winner, me :-D.

Even if you don't give rep to me, give some to ominub. He waited to play the game instead of taking the easy win. Which, I think, is very honorable.

Happydude

you beat me just cause you cheated...CHEATER!!!!

or maybe it was because i was half asleep, or maybe becasue i let you win...yeah...thats the one...i let you beat me just so you can have the glory of victory...i'll be going now and leaving you with your victory dance and stuff....

just for the record though....yoda cheated...somehow...i'll figure it out!:p

Happydude

When's the next tourney? I'd like to compete.
whenever someone decides to set one up again...but i don't think it'll be for at least 2 weeks or something, cause we just lpayed...although we could set up a big one and hold sign ups open for a while and get a big bracket thingy...we just someone like an admin or supermod to set it all up...

Dylflon

07-23-2003, 01:30 AM

Does it need to be a mod or admin? I wouldn't mind setting it up. I'm setting up a huge character battle and I'm neither. Dyne's helping me set up the bracket for the character battle. Would you guys like me to make a bracket for the next chess tourney?

GameMaster

07-23-2003, 01:52 AM

Make one for Checker's please.

Yoda9864

07-23-2003, 01:58 AM

You can make one for checkers GameMaster. You don't need to be a mod or anything, lord knows I'm not. But if you want, I'll set it up for you.

GameMaster

07-23-2003, 02:11 AM

Yes please. :)

Happydude

07-23-2003, 02:28 AM

i was thinkin admin or mod so that it could be big so that most Gt could participate, like have it's own forum and stuff...

Yoda9864

07-23-2003, 02:32 AM

Gotcha, I geuss if a mod got ambitious enough to do anything extra for it, I'd welcome the help.

It would've been more active if the people in it actually had games they could play online :rolleyes:. I think the most people that had the same game was like 4 with starcraft...
