1st place wintermute 2nd; liwott 3rd; straight peach 4th; sexy peach 5th; michael 6th; me (Sorry about delay, been busy) Until proven otherwise, wintermute is the strongest chess player on the fediverse :p I learnt a lot of stuff about running an e-tournament. Biggest factor is needing a lot of substitutes for when people drop out.

People hate reading, so i'll copy paste the important points from my previous posts here. if you can help with graphics or advertising to get more people to join thatd be great! # Format Round robin. Each person is playing 2 games, finals might be 3 games # Rules: - Feel free to ~~gentleman~~ gentlecoin to whatever rules you want. But i'd recommend allow 1 undo each, especially if you're both inexperienced. If you're experienced and the person you're playing against is inexperienced, consider giving them more undos. - Best of 1 - in my experience lichess works best if you register, but not required though clearing your cookies will break the game iirc!!! https://lichess.org/ - Both people have to report who won here. Both of you also attempt to report how many moves it took for you to win, might be used for tie breaking. - Dont cheat ex by having a grandmaster computer play for you - Do at least 1 move a day # Gambling: - I'm down to bet an imaginary currency like [!lemmybucks@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmybucks) or cat girls or what have you. 1v1 me sib! --- Would be cool if you upload your match so we can see what happened!
When did the lemmygrad defederation happen? Chris Remington mod A couple of days ago. alyaza about aug 10, mostly motivated by their lack of moderation/lack of compatibility with our values but also because we’re trying to figure out why our server is using so much more space than it should be (because if we don’t figure it out soon our hosting costs will need to double). one of the presumptions is who we federate with has something to do with it and lemmygrad was the biggest place we federated with, but we don’t really have overlap with their userbase so it doesn’t make very much sense to assume any additional load they might be adding.
feddit.de vs lemmy.ml I'm willing to bet whatever you want to bet. I'm putting it all on ahegao peach for this round This took long a.h. to make. Not gonna make promo art for every match, but if you want to help me, please do. **Retweet this image folks!** profile pictures in comments, cc-by credits; ``` vs https://opengameart.org/content/versus-vs-graphic-for-fighting-game retrowave https://opengameart.org/content/retrowave-vector-background lightning https://opengameart.org/content/lightning peach/muscle emoji - came with my computer ahgaeo face - https://www.pngitem.com/middle/hwJxibi_i-made-a-transparent-ahegao-face-put-it/ sunglasses - https://opengameart.org/content/thug-life-style-sunglasses Text - https://www.dafont.com/maximum-impact.font ``` i'm still hoping more ppl join so havent made the other brackets just yet, especially when you share the image! Peaches - arrange your match, ideally in the comments but where ever, let me know when you start the match!
# Format: Edit: round robin, not an even number that is easily divisible into a bracket. Each person is playing 2 games, finals might be 3 games # Rules: - Feel free to ~~gentleman~~ gentlecoin to whatever rules you want.
