    LordJashin: Thanks for the feedback! Runescape username is the account you'll be using on Funorb so your opponent can find you when the time comes to play your game. You will need a valid, non-banned account to play on Funorb.

    Boobies: Please use the registration format at the very bottom of the first post. Funorb chess is really self explanatory. I'll provide a link in the first post so you can check it out.

    Same, I would sign up, but I'll never give my rsn in this forum. Also, why FunOrb? There's so many better platforms for playing chess. How about chess.com?

    All: You can certainly make a new Account on Funorb just for playing there if you wish. There used to be a guest account feature, not sure if that is still possible or not. I even have a few old ones you can use.

    Superuser: I primarily play on chess.com, so I considered it, but decided against it for a couple reasons. (1) It is a lot to ask 20 people to make an account and figure out how to use chess.com; Funorb chess is very simplistic and wouldn't require everyone to create a brand new account. (2) If it took place on chess.com, it would no longer have any connection to Jagex, and I would have to post this in the Off-topic section, which gets much less activity than the SRL Forums. (3) I am not a paid subscriber to chess.com so I cannot create my own tournaments.

    I've changed the minimum players to 5 - it's possible to accomplish a full Swiss with People = Total number of rounds + 1.
