i was thinking just yesterday that it would be so cool if you guys could take a few photos of your working place and, say, the server/s itself and post them here! i mean, it would be to nice to actually SEE chess.com in its rl enviroment!(:

what say you? (disclaimer: i dont know if there were postings of such photos because i find the forum a bit hard to track, thats the nearest thing i can say to the truth. and the forum is a BIG place itself)...

If a webcam was set up to take snapshots at random times, the chess.com community could monitor for any slacking.

I suppose, if there's only ONE beanbag, there's a limit to how much snacking can occur.

Like this ... "You are currently playing in 10 tournaments. If you would like to play in more tournaments, upgrade your account now!." , did you mean?

Better to say: "You are currently playing in too many tournaments, Sheesh, get a life!".

 

Motion tracking should sort out the snoring.
