Hilarious!

I was spouting nonsense and found a source that made it common knowledge. Unsigned edits get reverted faster these days.

You spouting nonsense James? Refuse to believe that! lol.

You just described live chess and chess960 as well.

I wonder if any one is able to state at least three things that Traditional Correspondence Chess actually have in common with Online Chess here.

The only similarity I can find is the amount of time it takes.

So far all I got is that no one can deal with change. I await your failure.

"be used to designate any of them and is..."

"...requires a different name for each one."

If only anyone knew to what you were referring to. And to go ad hominem, which is expected by now as you have no real argument, you thought that the survey for a new name was an election.

Time for an omelette.

I'm beginning to think you're being deliberately obtuse.

My description above was in response to your specific objection that information never leaves the server, and as such sets aside the other elements of "correspondence" that also apply -- namely, the non-concurrent nature of the communication.

Live chess is concurrent by definition, and so is not correspondence.

960's just a red herring altogether.  Of course it's correspondence, just like regular correspondence chess here.  That's not what differentiates it.

• Communication over a distance
• Non-concurrent gameplay
• It's chess

Still don't know if Erik calls it multi-day tournaments why it shouldn't be called multi-day chess

Becuase they should be called correspondence tournaments.

Do your own homework. No less than seventeen have been named in this thread so far.

I'm coming to the conclusion that he's just trolling.  Surely he can't be that obtuse without it being intentional.

How about naming it "Turtle Chess , sloth chess , gradual chess,leisurely chess, chess bit by bit," I hope Erik you will like at least one. I got some more names. " custom chess, erik chess or Bloc chess ( based leisurely online correspondence) . well Erik "Daily chess " is a nice word.

"Slow chess" clearly expresses the main distinction with blitz chess and also it sounds ok.

DID you see post 920..."Chess Restante''?

chess for dunderheads

Captures it nicely, but I had to look it up, so it's problematic in that respect.

Has intruiging elements then , and broadens the mind.Could be a rewarding gambit... bird in hand saves lot of b(l)eating about in bush !
