[net.chess] First round of tournament

no5db@ihuxl.UUCP (07/27/83)

	Ok, I think the tourney is ready to go. It will be a four round
swiss, this is a list of the people who said they would like to play.
I got names 11 and 12 through other people so I do not know for sure if
they want to play. For this reason I paired them together in the first round.
Everyone else was arranged in alphabetical order and paired accordingly.
Please let me know if your address is not right or is imcomplete.

The first round pairings are as follows:

1	vs	5		(1  has white)
6	vs	2		(6  has white)
3	vs	7		(3  has white)
8	vs	4		(8  has white)
5	vs	10		(10 has white)
11	vs	12		(11 has white)

I received the following suggestions on making moves, from Charles Ditzel.
I this we should all try to follow them, if anyone has major complaints/
changes, let me know.


  first - give the entire score (this prevents different scores by the players);
  second - hilite your most current move (the one you are making)
  third  - give some if-thens. (This will speed up the game).
  fourth - algebraic notation and descriptive (USCF actively advocates the
           international algebraic standard), the player that makes the first
           move decides which one (or it can be agreed if one player does not
           know the notation).

For example:
