2 days a move
round robin, probably split into groups depending on amount of entries + some sort of final (maybe we could do rating sections because most people will have a rating on chess.com)
2 games against each player (one with white and black)

basically the same as the last one

entries:
1 me (playzooki, 1238)
2 patrickrowberry (patrickrowberry, unrated but 1122 rapid)
3 the mangle (EobardZoloman, unrated)
4 madbull (Martijn_to_the_B, 1079)


crosstable:

..........................1 2 3 4 total
1 playzooki..........//111111 6
2 patrickrowberry.00//0100 1
3 The Mangle.......0001//00 1
4 MadBull............001111// 4

Final rankings
1. playzooki 6/6
2. MadBull 4/6
3=The Mangle 1/6
3=patrickrowberry 1/6

How many of us do you need?

Doesn't matter how many there is. It's a round robin so it will just determine how many games you play. If we get a lot of entries and people don't want to play 20+ games at once or whatever, then I will split it up into groups. There may also be some sort of playoffs at the end if people want.

Didn't realize you were a big football fan, playzooki, wanting us to play 8 matches. Still beats Dungeon Hunter V's "ELEMENTAL ADVANTAGES" with Water>Fire>Nature>Death>Light>Water because fuck real life right?

Correspondence chess is usually round robin because it is quicker and you can play many games at once, unlike many other games.

Also I figured out prizes for first, second and last place. First place gets *insert beautiful woman here*, second place gets exotic butters and last place gets killed by a giant alien hell robot from the future and the past with a Thomas the Tank Engine for a head that's playing a meme. I know, I don't get it either.
