i'm hosting a go tournament in second life on june 2, if anyone is interested. play times will be 12:00-3:30pm pacific time, with registration beginning 11:00 am. I'm distributing 5000 lindens (roughly 15 bucks) between the players.
the boards will be 13x13, to help ensure people are able to complete their games on time.
time itself will be 15 minutes main time, with 3 periods of 30 sec byo-yomi.
look for chess planet in sl, the go center is a part of that.
