-=-=ANNOUNCEMENT!!=-=-=-=-=ANNOUNCEMENT!!=-=-=-=-=ANNOUNCEMENT!!=-=-

   I am now accepting entries for a chess tournament currently called "FIDO
   FALL 1996 TOURNEY".  This event is open to players from both CHESS and
   CHESS_TOURNEY echoes and is tenatively scheduled to begin 15 Nov 96.  Those
   who are interested in competing should get word to me no later than 1 Nov
   96.  I can be reached at the following:

      Fidonet -- 1:356/4.27   -=or=-
      E-mail  -- bruce.moon{at}thegate.hotlin.fidonet.org   -=or=-
      E-mail  -- bamoon{at}ucinet.com

   Although competitors will be posting their moves in the 2 echoes, they
   SHOULD be able to send and receive Netmail.  (If you're not sure what
   Netmail is, or don't know whether you can use it, or need to arrange for it,
   now would be a good time to talk to your local BBS Sysop about it.) If you
   have an E-mail address, you might want include it when you register.

   Exact format will depend the number of entries, but it likely that there
   will be 4-, 5-, or 6-player sections, which will be single- or double-RR.

   Questions may be sent to me at the above addresses.  This announcement will
   be posted every week with additional details appended as they develop (such
   as how many entries).

   UPDATE 29 Sep 96: Please note changes to registration closure and tournament
   starting dates above.  REGISTERED PLAYERS: Julio Bleda; Willie Walker.

 Later,
 Bruce Moon
