Atomic At FICS

Here are some results of the Atomic finals at FICS. Almost of the best players joined (except Tipau) Tipau wasn't a member of FICS until a few weeks after the qualifiers started. I did qualify for the Atomic finals but I had also qualified for the Loser's finals so I decided to go ahead and play the Loser's finals. FICS stands for Free Internet Chess Server what makes it so good, Is that its free (obviously) Its a much better place to play Atomic than ICC (Internet Chess Club) Because you can get games quicker, There are single ratings for Atomic, and there are much more better good players and more players that play Atomic there if you would like to register for FICS click here.

Here are some details.

The finals consist of three rounds.

  1. The variants qualifying rounds;
     
  2. The variants semi-finals;
     
  3. The variants finals;

A player may compete in any of the 7 variants and in as many qualifiers as he wishes. To advance to all the variant semi-final round, the player must place 1st or 2nd in any of the qualifiers. In the event that both top players have previously qualified, the next player in line will advance.
  For each variant four rounds of semi-finals will be held. Players placed 1st to 5th in each semi-final advance to the variant final. Qualified players can take part in as many semi-final rounds as they wish.
 

Variant Finals will be played Saturday March 5th, winners to be crowned FICS 10-year Anniversary <variant> Champion and receive a merchandise prize from our tournament sponsors at Wholesale Chess.
 

 The variant finals will be scored on a point basis and the top two scorers will play each other on Sunday March 6th. The winner of each final will be awarded 7 points, the second placed 5 points, the third 4 points, the fourth 3 points, the fifth 2 points and finally the sixth placed will be awarded 1 point. All ties will be resolved with tiebreaking games.

All players tieing for first or second place in a qualifier will be admitted to the semi-final stage.
 

The Bucholz System will be used to break ties in the variant semi-final and final stages.
 

Each variant round will be played using the Swiss pairing system. The number of games will depend on the number of participants and will be no less than 3.

Here are the Atomic qualifiers rounds.

The qualifiers will be played with 5 0 time control: 5 minutes for the whole game with no increment.
