And because the game takes up our time, we are busy winning wars, making alliances, building companies, but we often forget to connect friendships and passions. Allies or not, enemies or not, whether we have sworn at each other or not, I propose that we organize a competition for chess enthusiasts.

The rules are simple, to participate you have to make an account (if you don't already have one) on chess.com. It's an absolutely free online platform where we can organize the competition without any problem.

How to register? Well, you give me a private message telling me your name on the platform, your FIDE rating (if you have one), your ELO (if you don't know what these 2 are, you can skip this step, I'll figure out how to get you to play), tell me you want to participate and then I'll take it from there. Also, if you have ranks (national master, international master or grand master) please write it in the message, it would be stupid to make you play with an elo 1200...

When is the championship? I don't know, registrations are valid until Sunday, July 28, 10:00 am. Depending on the number of participants I'll make a schedule that I'll post on Monday, the times will not be fixed but depending on the opponent you can choose when to play.


Other rules? We play RAPID 10-minutes matches. First to 5 points wins (win 1 point, draw 0.5 points, loss 0 points).

Who makes the draw? Well nobody, depending on how many players there are and what level you have I will try to make pairs as close as possible in level, that's why I really want you to be honest in the message you give me and not to wake up with some IM that tells me he has ELO 600.

Prizes? Yes, sure, we have prizes, so far we have 100 gold and 20k tanks q5. If there are many participants I will add more. In principle first place gets 50 gold, 2nd place 30 gold, 3rd place 20 gold, places 4-7 5k tanks.

And the best news, I won't participate in the first edition, you have a chance.

So if you like chess, whether you want to participate or not, it would help me to share this article.

PS. Are you fond of chess but not too good? Never mind, sign up, meet people and have fun.

For further information you can always write in the comments or contact me privately.

CHACKMATE!
