I can try being helpful, but without your code, it is not that easy...
That said, are you sure the game tag is not <game name="chess" players="3" /> (with a slash instead of a backslash)? In that case it doesn't need a closing tag. The / before the closing angle bracket means that the tag is empty and should be treated as both an opening and a closing tag. As far as an XML parser is concerned <game name="chess" players="3" /> is equivalent to <game name="chess" players="3"></game>, so the XML you are generating should be OK (did you try checking it with an XML parser?).

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
