Jens (1140) ☗2☗5☗72017-04-19 03:23Hi Shogifans and 81Dojo Players! A great event is almost at the starting line and it is still possible to join in. I want to announce and promote the "8-Dan" tournament here. You do not have to be a 8-Dan to join ;-) In fact there are five classes as listed below from C2 up to A (just as in the Junisen tournaments for the Shogi Meijin). If you are a Kyu player you can decide if you want to play in league C1 or C2. Right now there are no less then 48 accepted participants from 18 countries in class C2, and 13, 12, 16 and 13 participants in the other classes, 102 all in all. And the list is still growing. The tournament will last until the end of November 2017 and it is possible to join in until June. This means that you have seven months to play about 50 games or more (if you are in C2). Like in all other 81Dojo tournaments there is one point for a loss and 3 points for a win, which means that the players are encouraged to play as much games as possible. There is a website on which the tournament results will be reported and it seems as if more (Blogs, Commented games, ...?) is about to develop around this tournament. https://sites.google.com/site/81dojo81/home/participate Join in and be part of a great shogi event starting at 81Dojo right now! Yes, I know that I (as a 7-Kyu) will pay a lot of "Lehrgeld" (a German term for appreticeship premium), but I hope and think that every cent will worth the effort, both regarding the fun and the increasing of my shogi knowledge and strength step by step.
