SL March Madness Go Tournament
    Keywords: Tournament

unkx80: Did this tournament actually happen, and is it now obselete? If the answer to either question is yes, then I suggest deleting this page.


I'm gauging interest in a quick tournament. If you're interested, leave your name and rating.

Once we get to a number of participants that is compatible with a single-elimination style tournament, I'll set up the brackets. During the course of the tournament, the idea would be to comment on the games in a Dick Vitale-style. (Dick Vitale is a television sports commentator mostly known in the US for his somewhat annoying and loud commentary and analysis of US college basketball, especially the "March Madness" NCAA tournament, which is a single-elimination tournament to decide the collegiate champions.)

Come! Try out those fuseki you've read about here! Upper Manchurian Fuseki vs. Great Wall! Mark II Kobayashi formation vs. original Kobayashi!

Cheer on your favorite SL deshis as they battle for the ultimate prize - nothing!

Rules:

  • Even games (no handicaps)
  • Japanese rules, 6.5 komi
  • Higher rank gets White (in case of tie, tournament director decides. Fhayashi is the tournament director)
  • 1 minute start time, one 30 second byo-yomi
  • If you run out of time for any reason, you lose (unless your opponent agrees to resuming at the point at which you ran out of time)
  • Games to be played at the players' convenience. If there is difficulty in arranging times, the tournament director will take action
  • Games to be played at KGS unless both players agree to a different venue
  • Tournament director's decisions are final

Winner receives nothing but bragging rights.

Anyone interested?
