another tournament? the first one didn`t even finished yet. and chesshere is ok

[Radooo]

Chesshere it wasn't ok because I didn't play any game in real time (all my games were at least one day long). A chess game should finish in less than few hours from the beginning

Yes it is o.k. and I am register there too but I am playing real time chess there.
chesshere is trying to emulate postcard chess but I think that real chess is more interesting then postcard chess. But if no one wonts to play chess on yahoo I will be glad to join on the next tournament on chesshere.

there, the problem was that not many people had too much time to play in real time. there is also that option

2 games for one week is to much time!? That means max 2hours per week and I think that takes much less time then playing games on chesshere because there you must non-stop to check if someone makes the move. On yahoo you play the game and you are restful until the next round.

imo is ok, but many people forfeited...

[dusmas]

What is imo?

[k_mihai]

in my opinion   

[dusmas]

 
you are probably right. 2 loses in a row and probably end of tournament for that player:(. And players must be very dedicated to chess to play tournament like this. 10 players means probably 9 weeks of play .

Ok, I give up from tournament like this. Continue to play like lone wolf on yahoo. If someone wonts to challenge me is welcomed to send to me p.m.

[Hiske]

or you can make 2 groups of 5 players... then it only takes 4 weeks... it's not impossible IMHO 

[k_mihai]

yes, i would play in yahoo also

[dusmas]

yes, i would play in yahoo also

nice I will put you on list of players

[Car_Dusan]

[dusmas]

Is it possible that nobody else wont to play chess tournament on yahoo?
