Hey guys I think it's time we have a wholesite championships where the winner gains the title of ozchess champion!

Now this thread is mainly for ideas and to see interest so please share any thoughts.

The matches could be 5 minute, 10 minute, allegro, all of the above, maybe even corro. that would be up to everyones decision.

We could organise it in a few ways, some one on one matches world championship style, a knockout tourney (with 3 lives/chances perhaps), a round robin or double round robin or of course a swiss.

Or even a combination where it starts as a round robin and the top 4 (depending on number of entrants) play off (1 vs.4 and 2vs.3) in a 10 match series and then the winners play off in a 15 match series to make it exciting, who knows!

The games would be held mainly on ICC but if a compettitor was unable to do this then it would be nice if some ICC faithfuls gave FICS a go just for the game

EDIT: I forgot to mention I'd be more then happy to organise it all if there was no other interest in organising

Thanks guys,
Jaydon
