    I want to participate in this tournament, what are the spoils of this tournament?


    I had a prize that I was going to donate, but then I thought it would all be about the prize and people wouldn't play as well and that we should all stay focused on the chess, so....

    Anyway, I'm ready and willing, but please someone set it up.

    Thanks.

    And the prize is the respect of your fellow players. Or in your case, significant decrease in disrespect for you. Tongue

    We need to make a draw and then do the round robin and so on.

    How are we randomly drawing stuff? Can I just do that at home by myself? Out of a hat or something...I'm not creating a Java program just to get random numbers assigned to people, that's too much work. Tongue

    Hat is fine. Smiley

    You do know how to draw a bracket, though right? Just make sure you include the losers of the first round in their own bracket so they can keep playing against one another. And then have a third- fourth place match also for both winner's and loser's sides, so everyone gets to play three matches.

    Ummmmmmm.............what?

    So basically:

    SERIES OF ROUND 1:
    - 8 ppl in a hat, pick em out, people go against one another.
    - 4 Winner, 4 Losers (the latter of which will include GRB)

    SERIES OF ROUND 2:
    - Out of the 4 Losers, make 2 pairs
    - Same with the 4 Winners
    - So now we have 2 Losers/Losers, 2 Losers/Winners, 2 Winners/Winners, 2 Winners/Losers Tongue lol

    SERIES OF ROUND 3:
    - The LL play one another again to determine a 3rd Loser
    - The LW play one another again to determine 1st and 2nd Loser
    - The WL play again to determine a 3rd Winner
    - The WW play again to determine a 2nd and 1st Winner (actual winner)

    And each of the "plays" will actually consist of minimum 2 matches, no draws allowed.

    Right? Smiley

    We just need one more person!!
