Roses are red

Violets are blue

You're gonna sign up for this chess tournament

How to play:

  1. Most important! Share this event as widely as possible! Post on the fediverse and even on your Facebook, Reddit, tiktok etc

  2. Sign up in the comments here. Just say your signing up.

  3. I'll arrange brackets. Or if you particularly want to play someone, mention it in the comments and I'll pair you guys up

  4. I'm open to suggestions, but lichess seems like the easiest way to set up matches, but really, if you can get your opponent to agree to use like Minetest chess, go for it!

  5. If someone off the fediverse wants to play, have them contact me somehow. You could even relay their messages to me.

prizes:

Has this ever been attempted before?

Lichess works across timezones in the sense that a person can do 1 move per day, mean both of you don't need to be online at the same time
