CBCL Attack Team?

I posted a thread in the chess.com forum asking if team accounts are okay. The consensus is probably alright for unrated play, but that seems a bit dull.

I'm inclined to try it out. Wouldn't it be cool to do say a 10-minute rapid tournament but as a group?? See what scalps we could get?

Sounds fun to me.

There is a way for a group in the form of a club to take on another group called vote chess. I played one it took months!!! ugh! but a clearly legal option.  The one I was in was a 3 day match may be able to speed up with different time controls. I have never set one up before.

 

10 minute tourney sounds more fun!!!

Yeah, vote chess seems dull as dishwater. I'm happy going into a tournament, or playing 10-minute rapid on Lichess... Thing is, even if our hive mind is stronger than any of us individually, which is possible but not guaranteed, we'll quickly find our correct rating as a hive, so I don't see how it's possibly unfair. No different to an individual of the same strength, right?

I totally agree

OK, that's what we're going to do on my next session (Thursday 19), we'll do a longer-format game on Lichess using my login.
