3rd Annual CFC Chess Tourney!!

[WhiteEagle22]

I love Facebook! It's the ultimate way to use a social media to make some dough for your business! It's also a good way to stay in contact with your friends.

Back to the tourney: I hope mowque and loki130 lose on time to me. That would be two more victories for me! I hate waiting forever (it seems!) for them to make a move!

I hate facebook because I thought I had put all those idiots behind me

And it's a terrible time-sink for me. I have little self-discipline when it comes to reading teh minutiae of peoples' lives that I haven't seen in close to 20 years

 

[WhiteEagle22]

I use it to keep in contact with friends who I used to work with, and with friends who used to live a short distance away, before moving an entire province away.

Looks like both of my last two tourney opponents moved! *sigh* Looks like timeout victories are not going to happen any time soon!

I just got out of jail

I am going to resign my games because I played like a million games of chess this week while I was locked up and I can see that all of my games are unwinable :lol

...... I've improved alot

 

[WhiteEagle22]

If loki130 and mowque keep moving, they can beat me. Else, they may run out time one of these moves.

Holy crap dude!

You're gonna have to tell me about that!

Other site, you know the drill

Just posted an update to my blog about what went on Tuesday when I went to see the specialist in Edmonton. Chess-wise, looks like loki130 doesn't want to time out! I may lose my first match to urithon (for the CFfF team games).

Well, 3 groupes are ready, group 5 is for all intents and purposes finished too, group 3 and 1 need to get moving!

 

[Narz]

I'm enjoying Luce & Mehmed's battle. I'd rather see good chess than super fast chess, that said I am a naturally (& probably nuturally ) a fairly impatient person.

 

[Mehmed100]

Luce and I are moving at a snails pace. Mostly because of me. I'm not a big fan of my current position. I've had to give quite a bit of thought regarding some of my moves.

 

[WhiteEagle22]

I'm mostly waiting on my opponents in group 1. I move as soon as I can!

 

[Sashie VII]

Take your time guys. Hope the next stage starts around May (after my finals).

 

[DaveShack]

Can the owner of a tournament seed in a new player in the next round?

 

[Narz]

No, I'm afraid not Dave. If I could I'd seed myself back in. (j/k on that last bit)

I'm itching for the next one myself.

 

[WhiteEagle22]

I wonder how many vacations a person can take? One of my opponents is still on vacation.

 

[Narz]

You get 30 days a year (premium members get 60 I think).

 

[WhiteEagle22]

I'm a premium member, but my opponent is just a regular member.

Don't be rippin' on us group 3s! The results are pretty much decided, it's just that the some games have to be played through.

Group 1 on the other hand, say whatever you like about them...

 

[DaveShack]

So, is this an annual tourney because it takes that long to finish?
<from the guy who missed the start due to not knowing about it>

Anyone interested in doing this more often, like maybe quarterly?
