Dear chess fans!
the final round of S13 is played this Friday, 4th Nov., 20h GMT. GMT has changed since we have now winter time, but local time should not have been affected in most time zones (in doubt click on the tournament link and check when it starts in your time).
The current standings after 9 rounds you can find here.
Since it is the last round, it has an extra length of 80 minutes! So make sure your tea or coffee supply is sufficient😃.
Mode: 5+1 (5 minutes per game, 1 sec. increment), 80 min. arena
Tournament Link: https://lichess.org/tournament/ZvRnXQTv
The price pool contains currently 821 Hive plus 521 LEO!
Rules
- Players of all skill levels are welcome, from newbies to experts, you just need a free Lichess-account and join our team in Lichess here - new: Entry Code is "Hive"!
- The season goes over 10 rounds, every Friday is one round.
- Time mode is varying (5+0, 3+2, 2+1,...) and sometimes berserking is not allowed.
- The winner of each round gets the number of points equaling the number of players in that round, the second ranked one point less and so forth until the one on the bottom of the table who gets one point. In order to be counted, at least 3 games must have been played. Draws before move 25 will be sanctioned.
- Occasionally a round may be divided into 2 skill classes.
- In case two players have the same number of points, the one who played less rounds is first. If that is equal too, then the average tournament performance decides.
- The worst result from the season in terms of points achieved will not be counted.
- PAYOUT: The tournament points are summed up. 70% of all Hivechess-related post rewards go to the price pool (PP). The tournament winner will get 50 Hive as bonus, the runner-up 25, the third 10 and the rest of the PP (minus 30) is divided among all players equally (40%) and according to the number of tournament points achieved (60%). 40% participation is required in order to qualify for the prices.
- There will be special prices of 10 Hive plus 50 LEO each for the highest performance in relation to the own rating (counted by averaging the rating after the first and the last round) and for the most rating points gained during the tournament (counted from after first to last participation). If a player would qualify for both prices, he still gets 10 Hive /50 LEO only and the second placed of each score gets 5/25.
- There will be a special price of 1 Hive plus 5 LEO in each round for the game won with the biggest upset in rating difference.
- If I don´t know your Hive username, you won´t be considered for prices, so please let me know your Hive name in the comments! Group or badge accounts can participate but are not qualified for prices! Only individuals can get prices.
Please share this announcement among your (chess) friends and colleagues!
The more participate, the more fun! And maybe some are even interested to join Hive and it´s Chess Community?
See you on Friday and good luck to all!

Going to be the hottest 🔥
Thank you for the reminder!
I'll be there as usually)
Great to see chess action being brought on the Hive blockchain and gathering so many followers. It has been a while since I played, maybe will try my luck in the future.
Hab mich eben angemeldet --> SonGoku-SSJ
Hab zwar schon ewig kein Schach mehr gespielt, aber das wird schon irgendwie 😅
Super! Herzlich willkommen und viel Glück!
It all comes down to this! Can I maintain 3rd spot?
80 minutes is longggghhhh. Let's do it.
Will be a fight down to the last minute to see who will be third 😄!
Joined! Very excited for Friday!
Great! You are in!
Thank you.
I will try to wake up early and join :)
In fact, within hours of the tournament, I couldn't take my eyes off my phone.
Instead of being able to drink coffee and tea, I can't even breathe.
Thank for reminding!!

Actually I didn´t change the time. Our government had decided to change it two times per year (long time ago, for dubious reasons)!
Sorry for the misunderstanding.
No worries :)
I gifted $PIZZA slices here:
