Okay, for the League so far we have 15 signups, which is a little on the low side compared to last time. I'm pinging a few likely suspects in case not signing up is an oversight on their part, namely:

@Caro-Kann @Trogdor @Leicesterlichtie @Stellaboz @Cheese @BaSeDG0DSA1NT @weeyin13 @Frank Grimes @SweeperDee - you up for next season's chess?

Also anyone not mentioned above is more than welcome to sign up too.

I'll start the league rolling in a few days once it's clear who's in and who's out.

 

 

I'm in.

Season 11 Inauguration

Okay, the signups seem to have stopped trickling in, and we have 21 players, so a 11/10 division seems like the way to go.

I'm assuming that @Caro-Kann intended to sign up by greening the 'any more joiners' post; correct me if I'm wrong, and AH13STU/ @Leicesterlichtie was parachuted into Division A since he was roughly in the middle of Division A last time he played (I'll reserve the right to make people who skip seasons play up from the bottom tier, Sevco-style as league reconstruction needs permit, but in the interests of making the league competition relatively even, I'll try to put people where they belong skillwise)

 

Division A P W D L Pts
AH13STU 0 0 0 0 0

I'll fire up the fixtures in the next few hours, unless people pipe up with any changes, corrections or objections.

Division B

Round 1
arabjoe vs davi3j

Arabjoe wins by resignation.

Nothing in this for the first 45 moves and I was very close to offering a draw - then two uncharacteristic errors (one of which was you offering me a Rook for free but I somehow missed that...) and I managed to get a pawn across.  Really good game - I look forward to the return fixture.

Aye, every time I thought I found a line of attack you had it covered! That rook at the end was a last ditch sac attempt to try and queen a pawn, well played, I enjoyed that one.

Result:

Div A - Round 1

ancientnoise (black) beats PnBmathematics by resignation.

Good to see @mathematicsback in Div A.

Summary: White rushes a knight into the open with no support and grimaces afterwards. 

Thanks for the game and best of luck for the new season.
