NEWS! To promote more chess femmes playing in this event, Goddesschess will once again be sponsoring special prizes just for the ladies. Details to follow!
Come on chess femmes! Please sign up and play in this great event. Who knows, I may even show up in person, and you'll see that yes, I am actually a real, live person trying to grow out a mistake-in-judgment haircut, and not just a Phantom (Phantomness?) of the Internet...
