Hi All -

 

I'm thinking about having an online chess tournament for UO members. We could do it bi-monthly or so. Thoughts? 

I could be in for this at least some of the time. 
 

Scheduled gaming is hard with three kids under 5 though. ?

Touching base on this long-since-expired idea. 

 

Chess.com allows you to create a free user name. If we could get at least 8 people who want to sign up, I'd be willing to schedule matches and keep track of wins / losses and league formatting? 

 

I think it might be something to look forward to and break the inevitable monotony to come as cold weather makes social distancing a little bit tougher. 

 

How about this? I'll give everyone until next Wednesday to respond, and I'll bump this thread at least once a day, just to make sure as many people as possible get eyes on it. 

 

Thanks! 

Sure - I'm pretty terrible so maybe I'll have to have my wife sub in lol

BUMP!

One final bump to anyone in addition to @DarkandStormy who would like to join

Quite a bump!

 

As I said last year (apparently, and long since forgotten), I'd like to play but my availability is still going to be spotty.  Three kids under 5 have become three kids under 6, but that's still a lot to handle (especially because it means the youngest is a lot more active at 16 months than he was at 4 months).

 

Does chess.com support asynchronous play?

10 years ago yes, but i have not played since kids came along, but would love to get back into it.
