Following up @steemitqa's original idea, as a mean to find the best wits in our precious network, I found myself in quite a dilemma:
• To break the homogeneity of my personal blog.
• To create a new account exclusively for this beloved sport we call Chess.
Thanks to busy.org's hard work, we are now able to delegate steem power to create alt accounts that better suit our categorical needs. So... I've to give you the props for that much needed tool!
In this blog, I'll be covering, analyzing, organizing chess tournaments and contests within the community. Expecting that, in a near future, I'll be able to release the post rewards as tournament prizes and, perhaps, make our community grow by bringing chess players from around the globe to STEEM.
I do not hold high expectations for this project, yet... If nobody does it, we will never know!
Chess, is the sport of Kings, the King of Strategy; as such, not many feel very fond about it, and we will ALWAYS be a minority. A very elitist community, that has an addiction to burn neurons over a 8x8 checkered board with pieces dancing as a display of an intellectual ballet.
Hoping for the best!!! RenzoARG.

I think Chess is good for just about any community. 8x8 board to imagination and creativity. Hope it goes well. Good luck!

I like where this is going. Looking forward to getting all of it sorted out! :)

Ha!
Welcome to Steem @steem.chess I have sent you a tip

Brilliant, dear chap. Just brilliant.
I suck at chess too much to play, but this is awesome!
I am expecting to deliver rewards to most participants. Perhaps "participation tokens" that could be traded in a future. So, you would be encouraged to play, even as cannon fodder :p
Love the idea. I'm no heavy duty player, but would love to play some casual games!
You'd be more than welcome :D

I had a lot of success last year in my #chessmatch
I think the extra human touch of doing it with gifs made it more accessible.
Good luck, and don't turn your back on @blocktrades. He'll eat you alive :)

Thanks mate. Life's crazy at the moment (my wife broke her foot and we have 3 young kids) so I'll give it a miss, but I certainly wish you the best.
Don't underestimate how much the gifs contributed to the popularity of my match.
They really add character and keep people engaged.
No Problem. I wish you all the best :)

One day I'd like to enter site and play chess for Steem. I could even watch good players play and reward them in upvotes. Can't wait for the first game to come up and use this tech!
