Sounds like fun.. I can help develop the bracket by randomly selecting people for each starting point.. Hopefully we get a lot of peps who want to play.

Yeah. You do that. We'll start playing one week from today so it gives people time to sign up.

Right now I'm thinking of untimed games hoping that we can trust that no one will try to tire the other person from an unnecessarily long wait. Any games that are quit do not count and can be redone as long as both people agree to it. If someone quits after a certain amount of moves (to be agreed upon by all of us) then you forfeit. Hopefully everyone will just be honest. There are no undos (So nobody feels it is necessary to give them just because they received one) so be careful with your moves. Games are instantaneous and not over long periods of time (such as days for example). It will be done on yahoo so be sure to give your screen name in this thread. If you choose to use a password (if you can, I don't know if you can or not) then make it "daniweb". Wins will be reported by the players of the game and reported back to this thread. Josh will have the brackets set up after all the signups. That should be about it. Maybe I missed a few things. Edit: Some of these rules might change if we all decide they should be changed before the tournament starts.

Hmm... I guess we could create a new room and call it daniweb or something like that. We'll have it all worked out by the time it starts. It really doesn't matter, as long as the two people in their bracket play each other.
