Chess Anyone?
Winston Hope Smith
Haven't written anything in a while and usually when I do it is something political in nature...
Anyway this is something different!
I would like to see if there is interest in a Chess Tournament?
If enough people sign up I'll set up one using www.chessatwork.com (or www.redhotpawn.com)
If this is your thing and you want to sign up then say so in the comments below...
Make an account in either of those site, doesn't matter which. When you make an account you get 6 games free so play away but keep a slot free
If we get the numbers in a few days I'll do a draw etc. set up some rules and off we go.
Until next time

We should have a sign up fee in IEP so that there is a prize for the winner.
we could indeed...
I'm too poor for a sign up fee, but I would jump in.
maybe the Minister's Dept. could fund it 😛
i suck at chess but sent too poor some stuff
Oh! Thanks fritzhill! That is so kind : 3
good idea winston 🙂
excellent idea. i also like the idea of prize money.
i hereby commit 2G to go to prize money over a period of three months -to be drawn by WHS as required.
let the kings begin to fall!
ps - whs - didja guys name that bathroom after me at the commune?
lol
its called the keesman piss pot
I'd sign up, but my internet is not reliable enough for me to make a commitment.
Andrews I am expecting a couple of moves a day, maybe 3 or 4, could you manage that?
Send me a reminder and I'm definitely in.

"I came in second place in a middle school tournament." Pfftt only second place. Out of how many people? 😛
We may be able to get MoC involved in this so that we can have a small prize and raise publicity for it without charging a sign up fee.
great idea btw o/
Poor mans playstation : P
Meh, you got any Connect 4?
I'd be in for Connect 4, too.
As long as I can be RED.
I'm in.
I doubt I'll have time for a tournament but I play Chess With Friends - pm me if you want a game.
I'm in. In my High School Chess Club, I was the highest ranked player.
I was also the only one in the club.
Send me a reminder and I'm definitely in. x3
Send me a reminder and I'm definitely in. x4
Yeah I am in although have you though about using chess.com completely free for unlimited amount of games?
An excellent idea, over in eGermany, they have a Ministry of Poker, similar in principle to this, with prizes even
I'd probably be up for that. But you'd definitely have to remind me, because I'm a little forgetful lately! 🙂
Hahaha this looks like it will be a good laugh, im in : )
Well I have been in contact with the UK MoFa and they are up for contests between our two nations. I proposed golf, they talked about Haxball. Maybe some chess might be in order.
I'd sign up but I'll probably forget i signed up.
Ah AC that would be quality, like the PGA but us and the UK
Send me a reminder and I'm definitely in. x5
Great guys looks like we can do this. I'll put something together and contact everyone
Anymore interested?
I would like to play
Good idea ;😉)
