WOOT!!

Ok, so we now have 24 players which means entries are 'closed', but if we get interest of another 8 people in the next 24-48hrs, we can extend it to 32 players.

SO FAR... There is just over 380,000 credits in this tournament!! Quite the payload, which will be calculated in the coming week.

The bracket is being pensively drawn up at the moment. So make sure you keep an eye out for your PM letting you know that the round has started.

Thanks a lot guys, you have already made this a lot of fun, and the games haven't even started yet ;D

Re: FFRs 1st Ultimate Chess Tournament!!!

A question: Times for matches are going to be set by the players themselves? I mean, do I have to estipulate a time with Remedy or do I have to wait a decision from you, you being Jae and DarknessXoXLight? Let me know because I don't have the amount of free time I used to have, sadly.

Re: FFRs 1st Ultimate Chess Tournament!!!

Each round will last 3 days, in that time it's up to you and your rival to figure out a time to play. It doesn't matter when as long as it gets done in the 3 days. If your rival isn't answering PMs, let nois-or-e know. We'll figure things out from there.
