Lichess Olympiad 2016!!!

Hello everyone!

Many of you guys were excited about the idea of an elimination championship on lichess, so my friend @ya_boy_Agent and I have decided to organize the first Lichess Olympiad.

We are still making the necessary arrangements before we begin, but for more information and how to enter, join the Lichess Olympiad Team: en.lichess.org/team/lichess-olympiad

We hope to see you there!
You sure guys did not steal from my idea;-)
what? sorry we read it, but too many thoughts to think about at once >.<
oh i understand what you mean now, those were actually some of our original thoughts :P
One question... is this tournament going to be correspondence or real time or what?
@jonmk

The tournament will be 15 + 10 games in real time. To accomodate all of the different time zones that people will be playing in, there will be "deadlines" rather than a scheduled playing time. For example, we might say that every game in the current round must be played within 3 days, or something like that. Currently @ya_boy_Agent and I are finalizing the details of this plan.
