I'll give it a go

Whoa. So my first game is one in which there are 3 days allowed between moves......is this going to be the format for the tourney? I don't know if I will remember my strategy if I have to wait days to play lol.

I take back what I said about the 3 day wait. I actually rather enjoy being able to take my time in regards to moves. I've never played chess this way.

I'm playing horribly. This sucks. I've never been that great at chess. Good thing there's no money on the line.

I don't know who is left for me to lose to, I haven't kept track. I guess whoever I haven't played yet can just challenge me.
