OK, I'll make a tournament scheduled to start on the 22nd. Since we only have 3 people (AFAIK), do you people like the idea of doing a simultaneous round robin instead of a Swiss?
Is there gonna be a tournament?
reply
Good question :'(

Woops, I got busy yesterday and forgot. I'm starting now.

BTW, I did create the tournament.
reply
Great! :)
When do we start?
reply
As soon as you two join the tournament. :)
I figured you’d check OGS, my bad.
reply
Oh ok! :)
The match I had with you was the first time I entered OGS in like 8 years, I even forgot we where playing the last one, sorry about that

do it
reply
Yea sure!

...what is it like? :P
reply
In a simultaneous round-robin, everyone plays everybody else at the same time. Since it’s a correspondence tournament, the simultaneous part is nicer IMO.
Also, what time controls would you (and also you, @freebookspls) like? Also, auto handicap or no handicap?
reply
Anything is fine. Let's just play
reply
Ok! Great :)
What kind of time controls are available?
handicap seems fair, for most are beginners and it would make it more even
reply
There’s
- Fischer (Fixed amount of time, you get some time back when you make your move)
- Byo-yomi (Fixed amount of time, after which you have a fixed amount of time to make a move)
- Simple (Fixed amount of time per move)
- Absolute (Fixed amount of time for the whole game)
I prefer byo-yomi myself.
reply
Byo yomi is ok 👌

DO IT
