@great-big-stees saidHalf way there, will try another forum soon, no rush though.
Where are we now at numbers wise?

@suzianne saidBet that would be a popular tournament if anybody in RHP could enter with a realistic chance. I'd enter something like that, but I reckon I'd get an extra rook or two at the start!
I've heard of "knight-odds" games or "rook-odds" games, where the stronger side gives up a piece to start.

@trev33 saidI decided to jump in and see how I manage against the higher rated players. You never know I might get lucky and at least draw a few! 🙂

@trev33 saidSince you, Trev, are overseeing this tourney can you please arrange it that I don't draw you. If our ongoing match is any indication I'll be dead before it's over.

@great-big-stees saidNo, you should thank trev as he is the one who set up the tournament. 😉
"Thank ya Jesus".
If you look closely it is a 3/7 time limit.
