No teaming in 4p FFA chess// how exactly are you going to enforce that?

They try to promote fair play, such as spectating chaturaji games and at the end telling the players if they're doing anything that violated fair play or online friendliness, and hoping that people will agree that everyone should be playing nicely using positive reinforcement within the club.

We'll just take action against anyone we see explicitly teaming. I said "4p FFA" although I can't imagine I'd ever see it in anything but chaturaji. I have occasionally seen people ask other players for points or for a team (both against chess.com's fair play policy). Obviously I don't have the authority to do anything to them unless they're in the club, at which point they will be banned.

Alrighty!

Understand!!!

At 2400 plus level there is teaming all the time at a high level. It's kind of hard to analyse even on 1+7 for me. And teaming is not in the sense that you absolutely destroy one person with the help of the other. If you mean that then it's not too common but happens from time to time. Usually not at a high level. For example if someone is 30 points ahead of everyone else you should team on that person in a way that harms you the least. I don't know if I should be discussing this here.

The only 'teaming' we are referring to here is the 'teaming' in 4p FFA which is already banned by chess.com. Probably another clause will be added to that entry to clarify.

Oath signed!

Rodger that! 🫡
