Reminder: Round 6 of the Hivechess Tournament S19 , Friday 19h GMT

Dear chess fans!

Round 6 of season 19 is played tomorrow Friday, 11th Oct 2024, at the usual time.
Here you can find the current standings after 5 rounds.

Time again for a Swiss tournament!

Mode: 3+1 (3 minutes per game, 1 sec. increment), 9 rounds Swiss

Tournament Link: https://lichess.org/swiss/X3C23nOK


The prize pool contains already 383 Hive!

Rules

  • All players are welcome, also newbies, you just need a free Lichess-account and join our team in Lichess here (password is "Hive")!
  • Every Friday is one round.
  • Time mode is varying (5+0, 3+2, 2+1,...), sometimes Swiss, sometimes maybe Chess960 (Fischer Random).
  • 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 (i.e. the Lighteye-scoring). In order to be counted, at least 3 games must have been played.
  • 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.
  • PAYOUT: The tournament points of the 12 rounds are summed up. 65% of all Hivechess-related post rewards go to the prize pool (PP). Each of the 3 rating-tiered tournament winners will get "x" Hive (at least 50), the runner-up "y" and the third "z" Hive (depending on the no. of players in each group). The rest of the PP is divided among all other players according to the number of tournament points achieved (50%) and the number of rounds played (50%). In order to qualify for a prize you have to participate in at least six of the 12 rounds!
  • If I don´t know your Hive username, you won´t be considered for prizes, so please let me know your Hive name in the comments!

Would you agree? Chess is today is quite commercialized, isn´t it?
Fortunately there is a non-commercial part to it - lichess.org!
