    Today i'm here to present and apology to the league of rooks and stones...
    During my 2nd match with jupiter i spasmed from sleeping pills and bec i believed it was a sure to win game i kept the good fellow jupiter up and prevented him from sleeping,even the dark mage illifus ain't dark enough to keep ppl up from sleep or prevent matches...
    I officially retire from the league until my sleeping gets in control and i hope my friend jupiter will accept my appology when he wakes up...
    Been a douche... will continue to be a douche later on game... thats what uo is about... but sorry 'bout intercepting with a holy issue like sleeping,since i don't get any sleep at all(30-35 hours a week) i feel like i did a heinous crime...

    Good Luck my dear players

    You've been added to the roster! check out the original post for all other league members. Contact them in IRC anytime you want a game and if they're available and willing you can play a game! If you want the game to be ranked, just make sure both players agree, and make sure you post the winning check made shot on this subforum

    No worries, I was sad the epic match between Illifus and Jupiter was so rudely disrupted by spasms. I definitely believe your skill in chess exceeds my own. Best of luck Praying.

    Sign me up, and because I'm desperate to make a snazzy buck, I will at any point be willing to spice up a challenge with minor wagers. So you guys tonight. ;)

    Welcome the club Dex! I've added you to the roster.

    Unfortunately for the past several months I haven't been able to get a full night event going. The best way to get a game, is to meet any of the rostered folks a hit on IRC to see if they are up for a game. You can play a game at anytime, it doesn't just have to be on Saturdays.

    Only rule is that you post a picture of the winning game board and both players need to confirm the game was honorable on the forums.

    Cheers.

    Sorry I missed the last event, sleep caught up with me after that game, Jupiter. I'll try harder to be present for the others.

    Hey hey I would like to officially join as well. And I want a rematch Jupiter. If LanDarr ends up being 37 we can play for the doublet!

    Do you need an in game character name? If so please use Hocus Pocus.

    PS: Thanks for stealing my pick btw!!!

    updated roster on original post with new league members.

    Remember, you can have a match anywhere anytime, and results can be official so long as both parties agree.

    Just post a picture clearly showing both players' names and final check mate!

    I'll take you up on that sometime soon ;)

    I have a great record of 0 wins and 2 losses on UOR so you will need a lot of practice.

    Hm... it would be possible to mix those chess tourneys with some Tavern events every now and then.

    I thought about a format called "Inns of Sosaria" where people or Guilds would intruduce theyr Taverns, together with a little RP come-together like once a month or so.
    Barkeepers would be the owner(s) or pretty much any volunteers *cough* @PaddyOBrien

    I'd be up for an occasional game. I haven't played since one game on a boat during a fishing tourney in 2015 but I still remember how. I took down @Jupiter so I'm technically undefeated for over a year now!!
