I see it’s too late to join. I’ve not done any tournament on chess.com before so I wasn’t sure how it worked. Maybe another time but I can’t say I’d be very good!

I think we’re all pretty amateur. Sign up for the June Open, it starts in a little over a week from now

Doing a practice session on lichess.org to try out the tournament parameters
The July 2022 Peercoin Open is happening on lichess.org as a Swiss Tournament on July 9th at 8:00 a.m. CST.
Games are 20+0 (20 minutes on the clock per player) with a 10 minute break between rounds. There are 5 rounds total so the event should consume no more than 4 hours (but will likely be faster).
The games are rated and there are also real peercoin prizes to compete for!
I might end up losing a game because of this!
And sorry for playing so slow. We’ll get there in the end.
The August 2022 Peercoin Chess Club event is a live Swiss tournament on chess dot com: Play Chess Online for Free with Friends & Family - Chess.com
It should be similar to the Swiss tournament held on lichess dot org. Five rounds, twenty minutes on your clock. 400 PPC 1st, 200 PPC 2nd, 100 PPC third
Good luck!
