Jeju, If you'll allow them, I'd like to bring these games to the table: Bachelor Chess Switching Chess Hostage Chess Thanks and good luck!
I like the idea as originally conceived, each player brings one game, any working game, self invented or not. I'm definetly in on those terms, or any other reasonable ones, but like Je Ju, i've never invented so can't bring an original to the table. Sorry for the late chime in, this tourney idea will keep me more glued to the site now. So, Yes I'm in! Had an idea though, for another tournament to take place AFTER this one. Since there are several inventors out there who are versed in creating games and then a smattering of us that have no clue where to begin, I'd like to suggest an Inventor/Apprentice opportunity. The way it would work (and please feel free to add or change, or disregard entirely) is that each non-inventor would be paired with an inventor. This could be done randomly, alphabetically, or by choice, i don't so much care one way or another. Once the pairs are made, each pair would hit the drawing board, bouncing ideas back an forth to create a game. The non-inventor could provide keen ideas and tactical support while the inventor could provide keener ideas and technical support. There would be a time limit, of course, perhaps 2 weeks, one month, i'm really not sure how long this sort of thing takes. At the completion of that time period however, a tournament would commence involving games that each team has just completed and brought. Each team playing as individuals and as a team, in the manner of pooling points. Like I said, this would have to take place, AFTER the tournament suggested but I think its a good way to recruit more inventors and more interest to the whole CV site. Good Luck all!
Thank you for your support, Greg. Any other affirmations forthcoming?
I understand Good's caution, he faces me in the next round...
I'd rather not play these: Shatranj of Troy Templar Chess Berolina Chess Dimension X Mir Chess 32
