Hi,
I have been trying to get an email chess game going. So, I create a game and wait. Then within about a minute of each other I get two emails; an email that the game has started and an email that the game was aborted.
Is it me? Am I not quick enough to start?
Please let me know.
Thanks
Eric

Probably not quick enough to start. Many new people probably think email chess is live and they get impatient and leave (sometimes never come back).
I am assuming this btw.

Ah! So it's not me per se. Good!
Being at work, live chess wont work but the email chess option is just right. That is if I can get into a game :)
Thanks!!
