Chess Tourney Echo Rules
Where We Came From:
Chess Tourney has grown out of a desire for a RELAXED, FUN echo on which
players of ALL strengths can actually (gasp) PLAY chess and discuss chess
in an atmosphere of congeniality and mutual respect for one another.
Membership Requirements:
There are NO requirements for membership, OTHER THAN your commitment to
FINISH any game(s) you start. Dropouts will be dealt with publicly!
We won't shoot you, but we WILL publish your name as a warning to other
prospective opponents! If you start a game or a match or a tournament,
you are expected to FINISH it. If you don't, a lot of enjoyment is lost
to everyone. As a general rule of thumb, if you call a BBS receiving
CHESS_TOURNEY at least once every 2 days, and your opponent does also,
it will take between 1 & 2 months to complete a game. If you call once
a week (each), then a game will last approximately 15 months.
Ratings:
We don't have any! Ratings are not emphasized. You don't have to have
a rating to play here! We will use them to pair opponents for team
matches, but even then you can play as "unrated".
But if you don't have a rating, don't get hung up about it, and above all,
don't let that keep you from playing!
Discussions:
Any chess-related topic is fine!
Aliases:
The use of aliases is HIGHLY discrouaged. If (for technical reasons, e.g.
BBS accounts created under an alias) you must use one, you MUST sign your
real name to each message. Cooperation appreciated!
Games:
To obtain a game with an individual, leave a message to that individual, or
a message to ALL asking for an opponent. Someone will take you up on it!
If you'd like to compete in a team match or tournament, contact me on the
echo, or watch for others announcing team events/tournaments and leave a
message to them that you want to play. Play all you want, but FINISH games
you start <g>!
Absolute Rules:
1. You will ENJOY this echo.
2. You will have FUN.
3. You will play and discuss CHESS on this echo.
