Hello Alstroemeria. It's Kouta Ryu here and I have an idea I had thought of for a while. Hear me out
I'm a pretty good chess player and I just started to get back into it recently. However, I'm always looking for different opponents to face since it's boring for me to face my friends all the time. I thought it'd be better for our fellow guildies to take their minds off Mabinogi for something that involves critical thinking
What is this?
This is going to be a chess competition only for members of Alstroemeria. Competitors will be playing against each other for the prizes. If you have played chess before, then good for you! If you haven't you should learn how to play it :)
How is this going to work?
Now you're wondering how is this going to work.
I think the best way would be using an online chess program for the matches to happen. I haven't picked out a program yet, but once there's an interest shown, then I'll pick one out.
What prizes are there for winners?
The prizes will be either a large amount of gold or nexon cash(?) for the top contestant or top 3 contestants. I'm thinking of making the top prize 500k gold. (Ruiha said that if you beat me you get 25k nx because I'm a bawsss, but I'm not a chess master
)
When is this going to happen?
Probably after there's a good amount of interest being shown. Once I see there's enough people interested, I'll set up a poll for a preferred time and the date with the most votes will be the date of the competition.
The ranking will be determined by how many wins and loses you have. Although this method requires more time, it prevents the best player taking out the 2nd best player before finals. This way, you wouldn't have to worry about losing in a tournament bracket.
Thanks for your time :)
UPDATE!!
A minimum of 8 competitors is required for the tournament to run. Please vote in the poll as well.
The prize will be 25k nexon cash for the winner.
