Mahaj: Are we going to just leverage the chess.com tournament system for this? We can set it up to be an invite-only round robin knockout format very easily. This would make administrating the tournament entirely hands off, and could make things run more efficiently (and fairly).

If no one else meets the premium member requirement, I would be willing to use my account to set it up.

I'm not a premium member and don't know how to set up tournaments like that.

I planned on doing something where I let people play four games against each other (against whoever they want, just needs to be 4 different people) and they report the results here, then I take the top half of the field and move it on to single elimination games with brackets and all.

Maybe your idea is better though?

That would be best emulated by a round robin style tournament with groups of 4, advancing the top 2 each bracket. Easy to set up on chess.com

Your call, it was your idea! Though I think letting chess.com handle it would alleviate some of the administrative tasks you would be burdened with.

Solm, NSSolm @ Chess.com. I say we bet something here.
We should play for LittleJohn. :D
You'd play for me? You're so kind!

Anyway, bugger you all for forcing me into this madness.

Johz, Johz.
