    Dear Chess.com operators,

    I thought about emailing you, but I'm hoping a forum entry will garner more attention, and I sincerely hope that you give this serious consideration.

    specifically in the bullet category, would you consider adding a feature that pairs up people who want to play a series of games against their opponent and a separate option for people who prefer playing a single game against a single opponent and then finding another opponent.

    much has been written and commented on about rematches and no rematches, some people preferring them, others preferring to avoid them.

    I would like to know when I sit down against someone that they are 'like-minded' in the sense that they want to play a minimum of say, 3 games before we start.  This way the people who want to play a single game and then move on can be paired up against other people who also only want to play one game.  

    I hope what I'm asking for makes sense, and I really hope you will consider it.  I'm confident that I'm not the only person who would like to have an option like this available.

    thanks!

    imajinit,

    I couldn't agree with you more!!!  There was a notification that went out today, July 4th, 2012. that lead me to believe that they've included this functionality.  However,  I must've misinterpreted it. 

    The blog read:  " You can now cancel rematch request! (The rematch button changes to "Cancel" while you are waiting for your opponent to respond.)

    Not exactly what we're looking for, and I'm not sure what the purpose of this is? 

    With your permission, I'd like to copy your post and submitted it to Chess.com.  Seeing how there have been no responses or replies to this post from four months ago, other than mine, perhaps a direct request would work.  Your thoughts.
