Note to participants: if you can post a picture (or preferably the link) to your game after you win or lose, that would be appreciated.

Won my game against MalaspinaGold. He had a pretty heavy advantage up until he moved his queen to a sparse area of the board on the left side which allowed me to trap and eventually kill her. I also aligned my pawns in a way that essentially rendered his bishops useless. MG resigned shortly after I got his queen.

Let me know if you are up for a challenge.

This tournament is closed.

But if someone wants to start an Atlas chess club for people to practice against each other, I'd be game.

If I might pass the word on from AAD, Hamilton doesn't see a path to victory for FalterinArc and is awaiting resignation. Obviously Falterin's not under any obligation to resign if he believes he has a chance at winning, but please don't let this drag on for a month before we get to the final three.

Congratulations to our two finalists!



I'll tell Statilus on AAD to send GMA a new challenge.

I'm no chess expert, so I'm not going to comment on the game itself.

I will say that I hope we can do this again in the future.

As I replied earlier, I'm willing to set up an Atlas-centric club at chess.com if enough people are interested. Tournaments could be run through the club.

There is also an Atlas Discord for players, but sadly it's inactive.

Congratulations to General MacArthur for winning the first annual Atlas tournament!

(technically not the first, but I do plan on hosting future tournaments)
