BE PREPARED TO BREAK RECORDS!
519 players per team between our team (Team Europe) and Power Of Chess is a current record on chess.com. Here's the most recent list of largest matches on chess.com (as of 2012-07-01):

As you can see on the list are able running large team matches!
Which of the other teams can afford playing such matches against us?
Well...the candidates primarily seems to be:
- Power Of Chess
- ASIA
- Wallyjack's Premium Members Group
- We Chat Global
Turk Chess Players and Team Russia could had been also, but we normally do not playing against any other European teams, since we want to keep together!
Chess Unlimited may also would be able afford it. Otherwise, I guess no other teams at the moment really are able for it. Or?
I will begin to gathering if any of the teams would be interested make an attempt running and breaking the record during the autumn. Will start do that from the begin of September.

How can you support this?
1. Join to the match as soon as you receive any invitation! (Of course!)
2. Invite European players and friends to the team!
3. Remind all mates about this game! (Through the notes, or when you playing games against any other European player.)
We basically need to get as many of our current members aware of the game and onboard as quickly as possible. But we also need to make other Europeans that not yet are members of our team aware that we need their support as well!

We will keep this as forum for discussing preparations for next attempt to break the record...
Any opinions or ideas or questions etc regarding this are welcome!
