Title: Chess at Bb8 Post by: FuglyBaz on August 27, 2009, 08:09:14 PM Seem to remember in the Chess thread that a few were keen in a mini chess tournament if time permitted at Bb8. Is anyone still planning to do this, the schedule looks pretty packed imo but would be cool to play in any case :)
Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: Neptune on August 27, 2009, 11:39:15 PM I'll play if there's time, maybe a blitz tourney?

Not sure if a tournament format would work, what with so much else going on on the day. Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: Longy on August 28, 2009, 04:31:55 PM I will almost certainly have a game, if i am at a loose end. Just make sure we have a board and some pieces handy.

Yeah that is kinda useful Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: Longy on August 28, 2009, 04:48:31 PM Just make sure we have a board and some pieces handy.

Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: Claw75 on September 01, 2009, 02:24:46 AM I can't play chess, but am well up for a connect 4 tournament.

My brain isn't wired right (probs coz i'm a girl). I'm shit at draughts too :( Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: Bainn on September 01, 2009, 02:54:30 AM I could bring along a rather unique 3 player version of Chess.

Speed chess obv Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: kinboshi on September 01, 2009, 09:29:07 AM The boards and clocks were all being sorted. We have plenty of time on the Sunday for a blitz tournament.
Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: thetank on September 01, 2009, 02:33:14 PM I can't play the tournament, won't be there Sunday :'(
Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: kinboshi on September 01, 2009, 02:59:02 PM I can't play the tournament, won't be there Sunday :'( :'( We can still have a game on the Friday if you're there early enough (and the boards and clocks are)... Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: thetank on September 01, 2009, 03:04:43 PM It's bash lite for me I'm afraid. The missus is working on Friday afternoon so
we're getting the early train on Saturday morning. Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: kinboshi on September 01, 2009, 03:25:13 PM It's bash lite for me I'm afraid. The missus is working on Friday afternoon so we're getting the early train on Saturday morning. Someone will be able to give you a game on Saturday, but not me I'm afraid. I've got a wedding to go to on the Saturday, so I'm also having a Diet-Bash. Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: thetank on September 01, 2009, 03:45:19 PM That's ok. Will probably just end up playing poker, speaking to people and getting pissed.
Tough life Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: stallyon on September 02, 2009, 07:27:17 PM i'm up for a connect 4 tournament if there is one
Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: 12barblues on September 03, 2009, 12:14:10 AM I won't be at the chess club next week, so tonight I've collected 3 sets of kit (board, pieces and clock) for use at the bash. On the basis of the response so far, I think that will be enough but more is available if necessary.
I will have to bung the chess club something for the use of the kit, so if those who play could make a small voluntary donation it would be appreciated. Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: kinboshi on September 03, 2009, 09:19:22 AM Shouldn't be a problem at all. I'm sure everyone who wants to play will chuck a note in as a contribution.
Haven't played blitz chess for years - looking forward to it! Title: Re: Chess at Bb8 Post by: Longy on September 03, 2009, 01:04:18 PM Shouldn't be a problem at all.
