    1 day per move

    Any person who runs out of time loses (or draws depending on opponents pieces) unless they have mate on the board. Press the skull thing that appears when somebody runs out. However, if they have given notice that they can't play please keep the game alive

    It is up to each player to introduce themselves to the moves. I.E. if somebody tricks you into a draw by repetition while you are winning it is your fault.

    Naturally, the rules of chess apply.

    If you are finished your match from round 1 or 2 you must wait until your opponent in rount 3 or 4 respectively has finished. Each player can only have 1 league match as white and 1 as black going on at the same time. That is unless I ****ed up the fixture list and gave you the same color twice in a row

    Just realised that Redhotpawn is mainly for correspondance chess. I'll look for one for Blitz after dinner


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,035 ✭✭✭BKtje


    Redhotpawn have a blitz chess area iirc. Never used it but i'm sure i've seen it on their front page somewhere.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,478 ✭✭✭Bubs101


    Just been using the blitz section and I think it should work. All we need now are players....


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,083 ✭✭✭RoundTower


    don't use redhotpawn for blitz, it is decent for correspondence chess but not ideal for blitz.

    I suggest freechess.org


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,478 ✭✭✭Bubs101


    Is it easy to find other players on it though?

    ATM there appears to be little or no interest anyway

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,972 ✭✭✭orestes


    I'd be interested in this. Haven't played chess in a couple of years and I'm not exactly a great player but I do enjoy the odd game and this seems like fun. If you're looking for more serious or experienced players though it's probably best all round if I don't get involved or I'll just end up being the leagues whipping boy :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,478 ✭✭✭Bubs101


    With any luck there'll be a mixed bunch of players in terms of skill level. I could do with some morale boosting 4 move wins.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,109 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes


    I'm interested, too. Haven't played in a long time, so I'll probably be vying for the wooden spoon.

    I've registered at redhotpawn with Pherekydes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,035 ✭✭✭BKtje


    btw if my earlier post wasn't an indication. I'm up for this as well.

    Names millso on redhotpawn.


  • Registered Users Posts: 883 ✭✭✭DmanDmythDledge


    I'm up for this.

    username same.

    I'll give it a go, and more than likely lose horribly!:D
    username: banjopaul
    also, can someone pm me when the league starts, thanks.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 6,956 ✭✭✭CHD


    If this gets going i will play.

    I'm going to start this on Monday to give any potential interested parties time to see it. Might PM some of the people who posted in the revival thread. Anybody who wants any practice feel free to challenge me on Redhotpawn.

    Regarding the structure, it might be better to not play blitz games and instead play 1 day per move no timebank with each player playing two games at once, one as black, one as white. If we get an odd number it'll ensure that every player is at least playing one game per round. Because of this could I ask that everybody keeps two spaces free in their list of games or at least frees up 2 spaces by Monday

  • Registered Users Posts: 40,858 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    I'd be interested, though I might be hindered by the time of games.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 272 ✭✭von Neumann


    Me too!

    just registered with Redhotpawn as von Neumann......

    Haven't played in years so very rusty! :o

    It's a day per move so the time difference shouldn't be that much of an issue


  • Registered Users Posts: 610 ✭✭✭figs


    also on RHP as figs

    Would be interested in a game or two...

    If this is still open please count me in. I haven't played since I was a kid, I wasn't particularly good then and I doubt the lack of practice has helped me improve since :) but it's something I really do want to get back into. Registered on redhotpawn as stevenmu.

    (I'm probably offline this coming wed,thurs,fri but other than that free for move-a-day or 10min games)
