i'll make the cut off 32 for now, may change it to 64 depending on if more (and how many more) people are wanting to play after the last spot is taken

I've closed sign up, it's late and I've gotta watch my animus so expect a day or 2 before I give any finalizing, you can say you want to join in the same format if you haven't signed up and are keen to play...if theres a certain amount of people (10-15) still wanting to sign up i'll raise the cut off to 64

yeh spread the word or whatever if you want more people

and also keep the thread on watched and check cause I'm not gonna be sending pms or anything to warn you guys cause that's a lot of effort and I'm not the type to be really really motivated

lmfao, no way. Only a troll would do that and I guess in that case you could get someone neutral to come and spectate your game as proof that the person is trolling/gone afk for a very long time

Are movements automatized in lichess? I mean: can I make moves against the rules or the game wont let me?

I know the opponent wont let me anyway, but I still want to know.

Question: How will we know for sure if someone has won a game? Can we watch chess games that were played somewhere?

Also, seeing some of these new people makes me think I'm going to be crushed in less than 10 moves.

rules state I need a screenshot or it doesn't count cause I don't wanna watch all 63 matches

you can watch someone's previous games on lichess, but both people need to have an account for you to know who was playing who, otherwise it' show up as something like "suna_kujira vs anonymous"

You may want to make a rule that people need to make a lichess account... it doesn't take long (doesn't require email verification iirc)

I've a suspicious mind, so I can't help but think unlimited time will make it incredibly tempting and easy to cheat.

Some of us need to get together and train.
Elsewise we'll never match up to the nimrod chess geeks.
