TOURNAMENT FORMAT

The Tournament will start on Monday the 21st and will go on for anywhere from 5 to 10 days depending on how many people sign up.

​

On Monday morning, all competitors will receive an email containing the "chess.com" account and the email address of the person they will be facing off. When assigned to face off against each other, competitors will organize together to play their game within the day. If there are any troubles organizing a game, competitors should contact the organizers to settle the issue. Once the game takes place, it will be added to the live standings page automatically.

​

The competition has no eliminations, meaning that after losing games you will be able to keep playing until the tournament is over with other people who have lost the same number of games.

​

For more details on how the matches/winners will be chosen, go to the live standings page.

​

The winners of the competition will be awarded custom chess piece trophies with their names inscribed on them.
