Hi chess lovers,
I am inviting you for a new Round Robin chess tournament,
Those players who are interested may register their names before
January 2nd 2021 by 23:UTC on my personal mail-id along with their
Names,Email-ID, Skype-ID, lichess-ID and freechess-ID with country
pankajchess.16@xxxxxxxxx
All of you please note:-
This tournament is only for English speaking players, but if any non
English speaking players wants to participate they should arrange
their own translator during their game, and hence such players fails
to arrange their translators during their games they may get zero
points for that round
Rules of skype chess tournament Rules and Guidelines
1.
The tournament time control is as follows:
A minimum of 30 moves must be played in 60 minutes, with any remaining time
being added to each succeeding hour.
I don't like to talk about forfeits, so I hope none will be warranted. A
forfeit will be issued if a player does not appear on Skype within 30
minutes of the scheduled time for the game, or if a player does not make a
sincere attempt to schedule a game before the deadline for each round. If
the player contacts me either by email, on Skype, or by calling me on my
mobile phone and gives me a reason for the delay, I will do my best to
arrange for the game to be played later.
(my mobile with international code is +91-73-50-59-55-66, i use Skype,
Whatsapp
Anyone who receives two forfeits in a tournament will be removed from the
tournament but not from Skype_Chess.
2. All tournament games will be played on Skype, lichess or free
chess. So, if you have not yet
installed Skype, now is the time. There will be a conference call for the
two players, the timekeeper, and any persons wishing to observe the game.
Once the game begins, no one else will be allowed to join the call, so that
the players can concentrate without any interruptions. Moves are to be
announced in English, using, if possible, the international alphabet Alpha,
Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Foxtrot, Golf, and Hotel.
to arrange the games make use of addresses which will be posted
seprately and then after final schedule write in
skype_chess@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx requesting for tk.
3. Once a legal move is clearly announced and copied by the opponent,
it is official and cannot be changed.
All moves in a tournament game will be made by using a chess set or your
mind. Some of our members do play chess in their head. No computer program,
such as WinBoard, may be used as a chess board.
If a player is been court cheating he or she may be removed from
skype_chess group...
4. prefferably all tournament games will be played if there is a timekeeper
present.
however if TK is not available, and one of the player is keeping time,
in this case, both players must keep the score,
this may help in case of dispute.
all games must be played on skype, lichess or freechess.
5. No player will be penalized for postponing a scheduled tournament game.
There may be a personal reason for the player.
6. No player will be penalized for not keeping a move log during a
tournament game, if is TK is available.
The move log of the timekeeper is official, and is
required. It is optional whether or not the players want to keep track of
their moves.
however if no TK is available both must keep the score.
7. During a tournament game, the timekeeper is the assistant tournament
director, and the timekeeper's decision in settling any misunderstandings
during the game is final, unless the players wish to bring the problem to
the tournament director after the game. The time keeper is also there to
keep track of each player's elapsed time, record each move in the log as it
is played, monitor the game by making the moves on the timekeeper's chess
board, and alert players of any illegal moves.
8. Points table
win 10
draw 4
bye 7
loss and forfeit 0
TK 2(maximum 8)
One point for timing your own game with max of 4 points
Two points each for playing on lichess or freechess.
9. Each round of the tournament will end on the date and at the time
determined by the tournament director at the beginning of each round. The
outcome of any games that have not been started by that deadline will be
decided by the tournament director.
the decision of tournament director is final.
