Lichess.org Test Tournament 2

Wednesday 15th April, 2020




Updated:

Thanks to all that took part on the Sunday test. The only glitch seemed to be in the automatic pairing system.

How does the pairing work?

At the beginning of the tournament, players are paired based on their rating.
As soon as you finish a game, return to the tournament lobby: you will then be paired with a player close to your ranking. This ensures minimum wait time, however you may not face all other players in the tournament.

From the above explanation, it seems that we need a large number of people if players are not going to be matched with the same people all the time.

Will try again on Wednesday. See chess123.uk for information.

The unrated test tournament will take place on Wednesday:-

Rapid Tournament

Date: 15/04/2020

Time: 7pm

Time Control: 10 min 0 inc

You might need to be member of our team "Glasgow Polytechnic" but not password protected, so may be open to everyone!
