The Tournament of Lepers II will REALLY start Jun 8
Er, last time I said pairing would be out June 1. Sorry. It’ll be June 8.
I already regret doing this poster (click for big size). It’s late; I hope everyone’s name is spelled right. If you want in, let me know before Sunday. (More info here.)
Wow, I’m so excited I almost emptied my bowels!!!
Reply to wangLove the poster, but there are two Ls in my name. Polly
Reply to PollySpaceTOAST is going down MAN!!!!!
Reply to BlunderproneWould you like me to publish the games using the ChessFlash PGN Viewer (now in beta)?
Reply to Tacticus MaximusLook, I don’t blame you for what you did. I mean, if I had your face, I wouldn’t want to put it on the poster either. But next time, could you get permission before you use mine?
Reply to The MascotI’ll POACH me some egg and put it on some SpaceTOAST. You’re both going DOWN man!
Reply to BlunderproneI would like to play in the LEPPERS event
Reply to Ivan WCitizen Blunderprone, are you prepared to received a blast from my Power Bands?
Reply to Space GhostI’m looking forward to it! My trashy play will do the Trash talking.
Reply to takchessI am ivanw on FICS – Thanks
Reply to Ivan WJust a note to my worthy first round opponent–I will probably not be available until June 17. After which I will be so exhausted and out of practice that you will slice and dice me and send me home crying. Please, please be gentle. I’m just a little bah lamb. I am totally harmless.
Donnie-will there be two divisions of seven or anything like that? Not that I have a problem otherwise but a six or seven game event is crisper.
Reply to WahrheitAwesome poster, man! Hilarious.
Reply to Blue Devil KnightSpaceTOAST, your power bands are no match to my Anderssen “sac and sock” em gun. I’ll even take your little flying monkey and put it right up your castle!
Reply to Blunderprone@Wang: Glad you’re so excited. You know, I had a hard time figuring out what picture to use for you.
@Polly: Grrr…you had me there. Out of all the names to get wrong a simple 5 letter name would have been humiliating!
@Blunderprone: You know Space Ghost is a powerful superhero…well, sorta. He wasn’t quite so impressive in his late night talk show stint.
@Ivan: You are in! Now I have to figure out how to add you to the poster.
@Space Ghost: We like Blunderprone here, please don’t hurt him too bad…
@takchess: Yes, we are intimidated.
@Wahrheit: I agree. This event will definitely be shorter–9 rounds was too long. 6 weeks will prob be the max.
If we have an odd number of participants, you’ll get the first bye.
@BDK: Your check is in the mail.
After finishing the poster, I simply thought “This sucks.” But it went up just to feel the time spent wasn’t wasted.
Reply to DonnieI don’t think it sucks at all. I wish I could do cool stuff like that on my blog. Can you make me a King Kong picture with him holding a white queen instead of the girl? LOL
Reply to PollyCan’t tell if you were tongue in cheek, but if you want, I definitely could do the King Kong pic!
The reason why I say the poster sucks is because I end up very familiar with it before posting. Now, it produces a dry cough instead of a smile for me.
However, I’m still LOL’ing at the Chess Enquirer and will be for a week. THAT did not suck!
Reply to DonnieChess Enquirer is a rip! Actually I wasn’t being tongue in cheek. If you read my latest post you’ll see why I wanted the King Kong pic.
Reply to PollyNP, I’ll get the King Kong pic for you in the next couple days!
