How to Adopt Someone In Chess
There has been some disagreement over the term "adoption" recently. I wanted to write this blog to inform all of you exactly what an adoption is.
To adopt someone, you need to beat them 10 times in a row in 1 sitting in the same time control.
- If I play @rychessmaster1 8 times in 10 sec, and win all 8, then I decide I want to play 3 minute against him and win two games THIS IS NOT AN ADOPTION
- If @rychessmaster1 plays @kyanbui 5 times in 1 minute on Friday wins all 5 games then leaves, but plays 5 more 1 minute games on Saturday and still wins the five he has not won all the games in a single sitting therefore THIS IS NOT AN ADOPTION
- If @rychessmaster1 plays @DanielRensch 10 times in 12 hour games and wins all 10 in this one sitting, THIS IS AN ADOPTION
I hope this clears the matter up for everyone and go get some children!
