Mr_YinYang

I've been here since November 2012. Ive never seen the feature on here. You must be mistaken. I am talking about BLITZ960!!!! Where you play a 960 game Live! I believe you are thinking about  our correspondence version of 960 chess.

Hello Warrior2000!!! Yes, if they are Chess960 games then I have no problem with posting them. But only 960 games :) tao585 !!!! Thank you very much for your vote!!! Tell your friends to stop by and vote yes!!! it's easy, fast!!! The more votes we get the sooner I can move to Phase 2. So we are at a total of 31 votes!!!! We need 969 more!!!

Mr_YinYang

Excellent!!! If anyone has a 960 game they want to feature, feel free to poat it here...at the BLITZ960 forum!

Mr_YinYang

Beautiful display of Coordination. Notice that in 960 games, Wing attacks are much more prevailent. Very nice!

There's other sites with live 960, some are even free.  I see no need to impose such an expectation on Chess.com when we can play elsewhere.

That said, I'm confident the demand is there and live 960 (including live 960 tournaments) would become well used if added here.

I organised a small otb 15min Chess960 tournament at my chess club (Phoenix chess club,Sheffield [UK]).

The time limit felt very fast indeed.

I vote for 30 min.

Mr_YinYang

@MehranKhorasani, thank you for your Vote!!! That puts us at 32 votes!!! We need  978 more votes!!! 

Now @ sftac in so many words you voted NO on having BLITZ960 here at chess.com because it is available at other chess sites. I will tally your vote, but I ask you this, why go to another chess site at all for live960? Just a thought. We are at 32 votes yay vote nay(sftac). We need 978 more votes!

Ok now @ pbeckett, thank you for your input above your fast timed BLITZ960 game! Very informative, I will take note that 15min 960 games are too short. There will be an option of 2,5,10,15 and 30 min games, just like regular speed chess. So now that I tally you we have 33 votes! 

33 yay votes.

1 nay vote.

We need 977 more votes!!! We can do this I know it.

Hmm.. one more vote from me.. but come if 1000 votes then chess.com would start it?
