Okay, boys and girls... thank you for your patience (and not spamming me with emails

Rules and sign-ups for this year's Cosplay Chess are available here:
Rules Reg
Once again, we are looking for 32 chess pieces and a couple of chess masters for the event, as well as alternates. You do not have to know how to play chess if you are chess piece, all moves will be coordinated by the chess masters.
As this is
Cosplay Chess, your character cosplay will be the deciding factor in who gets to participate. This is not a first-come, first-serve sign-up - we will be looking for complete cosplays, with a preference for well-known characters. This is a separate event from the Cosplay Contest, you will not be judged on the quality of the cosplay, or if you made it yourself - you just need to be a recognizable character.
To sign-up to be a chess piece, you need to do the following:
* Read the
rules. * Fill out the registration form.
* Submit the form and photos of your costume to
chess@kumoricon.orgYou
must include photos of you in your cosplay, or of your cosplay itself (I can't reiterate this enough, guys... if you don't send pics, you don't get to play). Images of your character will not suffice. Since this is not first-come, first-serve, you have time to wait until your cosplay is complete... there is no penalty for being one of the last ones to register. You are also allowed to submit more than one cosplay (just submit a separate form for each.)
If you are interested in being a chess master, or want to help out in another way, please let us know by posting here, or via e-mail or PM.
Sign-ups will be open until August 25th. Deadline extended to Friday, August 27th Players will be notified of their team and position the week before con, and will be required to attend a meeting before the event.
If you have any questions, please post here or PM me

(C'mon guys.. we've had Men vs Women the last couple of years... I'd really, really love to see Good vs Evil
