The Fortnight Speed Vote League is registering teams now for Season 3, and this group is invited to participate!!!

We play Vote Chess at 10-mins per turn.  This is an incredibly fast, exciting and intense way to play chess!!!  The entire game is played in a single day, with each team making a move every 20 minutes.  Since it is so easy to timeout at this speed, these games are scheduled in advance (usually on a Saturday) so that each team can have their players online and ready to play.  No one needs to be online for the entire game (although many choose to be), as long as there is SOMEONE online every 20 minutes to make a move.

With each team making exactly 3 moves per hour, an average game lasts 8-12 hours, although there have been a few battles that raged for more than 24 hours.  Because these games can be so time consuming, we have decided to switch to a monthly schedule so that each team will only need to play 1 game per month (starting in June).

If this group would like to play in Season 3, please go to this thread to register:

Thanks for taking the time to read this!!!  I hope to see you all in Season 3!!!

This team didn't do too badly in Season 1.  Since we're on a monthly schedule now, I figured I'd give them another chance.  Maybe the relaxed schedule will be more conducive for them.

I had fun last time around but I don't think there's enough enthusiasm/interest this time around.  Even last time we barely held on in some of our games, at points I was the only one playing.

This was before I knew you, about a year ago.

Sounds pretty cool to me.

Sounds cool but we gotta move every 20 minutes which means we have to have players on board around the clock.

Oh well, Reg is coming up at the end of the month, and there really is only a hand full of us in Narz' Peps that are active in Vote Chess. I guess I will have to play with one of my other groups.
