1900-1999 is too small a window, should include up to 2200. That way I can play
Nah, it should be a tournament for players rated 2233.
Sign me up pls
I nearly meet the criteria.. I can win a few games if necessary.. The money thing is cool and I appreciate it but I'd just be excited to take part.
But 1900 Lichess isn't even amateur club level player!
1900 Lichess is like 1500 fide or smt and 1600 chess.com. That's not club level
I am like 2000 chess.com, that's more like amateur club level (sorry if my Lichess ratings don't correspond with cc, I don't rly play on li)
If youve got blitz at 1900 but others higher like rapid are you still allowed in???
Love the idea Zug
I really like your idea of a chess tournament that is understandable/ relatable for a broad mass of players
I have to go through my way to 1900 now. Its time for me to play something serious.
Btw when are the plans of hosting this tournament
Also @ZugAddict What if a player misses out if they genuinely got placed in top 10 considering your second condition :)
And will my 6 month history work or do i need to be an older player to perhaps play.
I'm sure I will be 1900 :) Currently no but ill grind my way lol. I play less :))
Hey, so I'm thinking of revamping this idea into under 2000 because restricting it to 1900-1999 narrows whatever interest there is in this a bit too much. I'm also thinking of hosting a qualifier but with an unusual condition - the goal will be to score the closest to the middle amount of points (based on whatever the highest point total happens to be). What do you think? :)
