International Chess Forums Tournament - OzChess

**Just2Good** · 03-18-2009, 12:40 PM

It looks like we are off to the races because members of every forum have now expressed interest. Okay, this is how it will work.

Chess Forums (UK)
OzChess (Aus)

Will make their moves every Wednesday and Saturday (USA Eastern time, late evening).

Chess Talk (Can)
Chess Leaders (Bah)
Space Chess (Ger)

Will make their moves every Monday and Thursday.

Threads will be created for each game, every country will play every other country (round robin style tournament), so 4 games in all for each forum. On the due date, listed above, the move with the most support will be the one played. Members therefore should state what their move preference is within the thread.

Chess diagrams will be generated and placed in the thread to help everyone keep track.

We now have two moves to make over the next 24 hours in the following threads:

Australia vs Bahrain

Australia vs UK
