XKI-Forest Chess Tournament Interest Thread

[Alkasia]

Hi everyone! thepeninsular and I were discussing holding a chess tournament with Forest. Forest has already gauged interest in their region and they have 7 willing participants, so I wanted to gauge interest here as well.

This is just an interest thread, so if you want to participate in the XKI-Forest chess tournament, please post here and answer the poll!

[Haganham]

I'm interested.

[Aersoldorf]

I would play and I recommend using Gameknot as the site

[Neutrality United]

Sounds interesting.

[Sauron]

I'm interested but would much prefer using chess.com as I can easily play on my phone. I don't tend to go on gameknot much.

But as I'm only an ambassador, don't let that dictate how you guys want to do it.

[Ater Nox]

I haven't played chess in a while, but I'd be in. Chess.com and Gameknot both work for me.

I'd hate to be a negative nancy, but I am absolutely terrible at chess and to compete with people who probably know what they're doing would be like a baby trying to subdue a coyote with a cotton swab.

[Lamoni]

I'm only so-so in chess myself, but if you guys want to set this up, then let's do it.

I nominate you as the team coach then

[Almonaster]

If this goes ahead, please ping me on Canada, since I'm not here very often these days.

thepeninsular When is this going to take place?

[Nate NBNS]

I've heard of this "chess". Something to do with pieces of different colors that drive men mad.

Still some time away as I still have to work it out with Forest. I am currently in the middle of exams but you can expect me to start working on it next week.
