    Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!! I'm late!!!! >.<

    Oh well, no use worrying too much about it, welcome to the individual chess celebration everyone! \(^^)/

    I'd usually try to make some random stuff and whatever as flavor, but I'll just get right to business this time.

    Oh, and... If you don't know what this is about, please head to this thread: http://forum.novelupdates.com/threa...-celebration-interest-discussion-thread.45624


    How will this work?


    We have 12 people that signed up for the individual chess, so I guess we'll go with a points system.

    I'll put people up in conversations to play against one another in completely random pairings at first, and as people lose/win, I'll be matching the winners with winners and losers with losers, and from that point on we'll go with bigger points with smaller points.

    According to my 10s googling skills, Chess usually gives 1 point per win, 1/2 per draw and 0 per loss... I don't like fractional numbers so we'll go with 2 per win, 1 per draw and 0 per loss.

    I'll be posting the completed matches on this thread btw, so you can use that to spy on your opponents playstyle if you have enough free time to do it~ :blobpeek::blobpeek::blobpeek:

    If anyone will disappear, please warn me in advance, I'll either have to kick your registration to oblivion or try to find a substitute... I'll try finding a substitute, but I can't guarantee anything.


    Okay, with the intro out of the way, let's get the fun started! I'll be setting up the conversations, please wait a bit!


    If I missed your registration, please tell me ASAP, you need to warn me about it before the first round is over!


    Schedule

    We have from the 4th (5th... :sweating_profusely::sweating_profusely::sweating_profusely:) of September until the 1st of October to make this thing work out, we have time so you don't need to hurry too much on the matches, but don't exaggerate on the slow pace, okay? I can't start the 2nd round if the 1st isn't over for everyone.

    I'm planning on 4 rounds of matches, so that means you have about 1 week per game... Please don't take longer than that! We might need a last round to define the winners!!! >.<


    Prizes

    1st Place: 3,000 nu£
    2nd Place: 1,500 nu£
    3rd Place: 750 nu£


    Don't forget to bet on whom do you believe will win: http://forum.novelupdates.com/threads/nufs-2nd-anniversary-celebration-bets-and-raffle.46656/ :blobiampsyx::blobiampsyx::blobiampsyx:

    Phew, I guess that's all, I hate doing things on a rush... Oh well, it's entirely my fault anyway~ :blob_evil_iampsyx::blob_evil_iampsyx::blob_evil_iampsyx:

    Have fun everyone! ^^)/

    hmm? its not like i against it,
    but whats so hard about draw being 0.5 point?

    if let say i won 2, draw 3, my point would be:
    1+1+0.5+0.5+0.5 = 3.5 points

    simple math isn't?
    well im fine either way tho.

    Thanks for the hard work and let have some fun~

    Am I too late to register?
    If I am, I'll just watch this thread to see what place I might've got with my have-only-touched-a-chessboard-once-in-the-last-three-years skill.

    Yeah, in the end, I'll probably be glad that I didn't enter and make a fool out of myself. (more than I already did)

    Well, you'd make we have an even number of players, which would mess up things a bit... Though we could always have a BYE I guess...

    Can I get back to you on this later? If somebody stays the entire day without replying, I can put you on their place.

    I'd make an even number of players or you already have an even number of players?

    No, I think your odds and evens are correct, but the "you'd make we have even" is off-putting.

    I feel like we are speaking different Englishs.
    Where I come from, we'd phrase it as, "with you, we'd have an odd..." or "you'd make us have an odd..." or "we have an even..." though I don't know about the rest of the world...
