[Freak Show]

I played in the last one and had a great time! Please count me in. My Chess Time name is Freak Show.

 

[Murph]

Was just thinking about this yesterday! I knew there had been FBG tournaments in the past, but haven't participated. Starting to take it seriously again after being inspired by Queen's Gambit. I'm in, username BruinsMurph

(Also play on Lichess as Murph119 if anyone wants a game there)

 

[fatguyinalittlecoat]

I’ll play again to let you good players get a free win.  Last time I got crushed in most of my matches but managed to have a couple close ones against the other bottom dwellers.  Good times.
 

Username is FBGfatguy.

 

[AAABatteries]

In again.

AAABatteries

 

[Dezbelief]

 It's been so long since I played, I don't know if I have 6 games in me. How long does the typical game last, a day or two?

 

[shuke]

In for more punishment.

 

[Psychopav]

In!

Psychopav

ThanksTim

It's all in fun. 

 

[Zow]

@timschochet we capping this at 16 guys? I count 11 in so far. I @'d kutta and juxtatarot as I remember them always playing. 

 

[Zow]

@scoobus i think usually played, too. 

 

[Juxtatarot]

I'm in although I'm having a hell of time accessing this forum recently.  Juxtat on chess time.

 

[timschochet]

@timschochet we capping this at 16 guys? I count 11 in so far. I @'d kutta and juxtatarot as I remember them always playing. 

I don’t think there should be a cap. Let’s see where we are in a few days. 

 

[Aerial Assault]

Happy to.    Aerial Assault.

I will set up round 1 pairings tomorrow. 

 

[timschochet]

Sure 

Thanks- what’s your chess time user name? 

 

[Mister CIA]

I just realized you are setting this up on chess time, not chess.com.  I'll have to set up a chess time account later toady (left my mobile at home, and boy does it feel good!).

 

[bostonfred]

Thanks- what’s your chess time user name? 

Bfred

 

[nysfl2]

Sure, I'll play. I played some with my son over Christmas break, and was thrashed by him pretty soundly.

 

[timschochet]

OK we have 18 in. I will now set up pairings for round 1. This is done randomly.

My user name is originalsynapse,  no spaces.

 

[Steeler]

My username is frinkahedron at chess time.  Since Dez is playing white in our match should he send the invitation to me?  Is that how it works?

 

[Mister CIA]

I have the same question.  

 

[Dezbelief]

Invitation sent

 

[Steeler]

And I accepted but it looks like I'm playing white instead of you.  @timschochet can we just switch white/black for our game?

 

[Dezbelief]

Doesn't matter to me.

 

[Dezbelief]

Let's go ahead. So maybe in the future black should send the invitation?

 

[Steeler]

Doesn't matter to me.

Me either but I assume Tim wants to have people play an even number of white/black games - we can just play and have Tim adjust future games for us, I think.  @timschochet

 

[timschochet]

And I accepted but it looks like I'm playing white instead of you.  @timschochet can we just switch white/black for our game?

I would prefer you didn’t. There is a control on chess time that allows you to switch sides so long as the game hasn’t started. 

 

[Dezbelief]

I would prefer you didn’t. There is a control on chess time that allows you to switch sides so long as the game hasn’t started. 

I tried to find the option. 

 

[Mister CIA]

Do we specify 7 days for the time per move, essentially unlimited?

While stumbling the interface i inadvertently started a game against someone with the handle iwillpooponyou.  I feel like I'm stealing from @General Malaise.

 

[Dezbelief]

I lost.

 

[shuke]

Invite to juxtat

 

[Steeler]

I lost.

Good game Dez!

 

[Mister CIA]

Invite sent to @Psychopav i may tap out for the evening in a little while.

FYI, I may play slowly during the opening.  I've been playing a lot of computer matches lately and I tend to get swindled out of a pawn or two early if I am not careful.  I think the technical term for this is "getting pwned."

 

[Juxtatarot]
