{}-->Chessplayers! If you are a U.S. citizen or U.S. Resident, this
invitation is for you! I have spoken with friends from Italy, and we have
conjured a little contest between our two nations. We would like to have at
least 15 or 20 players, from each nation of course, who are brave enough to
join our tournament. It works like this: We would use skype to communicate
with each other. If you’re new to skype, don’t worry. You will be sent a
link by email. Clicking on that link will launch your connection with skype.
And skype is only for communicating. You still use your own chessboard, just
as if you were sitting across the table from your opponent. If you don’t
have skype but are interested in this tournament, skype is free to download.
You would need to create your skype handle. Time control will be probably
game/90, maybe with a 10-second increment. In case you’re not familiar, that
means that each player has 90 minutes total to complete the game. If we use
the 10-second increment, that means that ten seconds is added to your time
with each move.You’ll play at least two games against the same opponent,
switching colors. In the event of a draw, you would play a third game.
Ultimately, your aim is to score two points, so the maximum number of games
you could be expected to play is four, but that would only be if all four of
your games ended in draws. You’d have the month of March to complete your
games, so working folks can use evenings or weekends to schedule games. All
games will have a third-party time- and score-keeper who will manage the
clock, record the game moves, and also will intercede in the event of any
disputes. The timekeeper will also assist with translation, so you do not
need to worry if you know no Italian. Scoring: The player first scoring two
points earns one point for their team. In the event that both players score
two points, as described above, then each team would receive a half point.
The team with the most points wins! Interested? Just reply to this email.
And just think, this is a great opportunity to reconnect with some fellow
chessplayers, it’s a great opportunity to Score One For The U.s., and, if
you’re new to all this, it’s a great opportunity to stick your toe into a
whole new swimming hole! I’d love to hear from you soon, so, give it some
thought, and give it a shot! Best regards,Jim T
