2006 First Quarter Open Number 4 Dark Chess (Dark Chess - show rules)
The sabbitical is over. Time to start up the quarterly opens. Open to all. Good luck to all. I'm going to have some other variants listed in a few days too. I'm looking over my previous tournaments.

Let's see who can join the winner's list.
2004 1st ¼ Number 1-- Walter Montego and grenv, co-winners
2004 2nd ¼ Number 2-- Walter Montego
2004 3rd ¼ Number 3-- TheLamer (Prize tournament)
2006 1st ¼ Number 4-- ?

Yes. Ol' Number 3 was my first time of elimination, rick 'em, rack 'em! I'll be ready this time! Matarilevich knocked me out in the first round. TheLamer blazed. I suppose having a prize offered adds to the interest and gets more people to sign up. Maybe I'll do it again come the Third Quarter.
I'm sticking with the previous 4 day time limit. I will try to move faster than that and hope every else can too. Sometimes things come up. Wow, there's lots more options since the last time I created a tournament. Fencer has been busy. :)
