The Fortnight Speed Vote League is getting ready to start its second season. There's still one week left to get your team registered. All you need to do to qualify is complete one game of Vote Chess at 10-mins/turn WITHOUT TIMING OUT (to prove that you can go the distance, since these games can last for several hours). Each team will play 1 game of Speed Vote Chess every 2 weeks.
I will begin working on the schedule on Monday, October 19th, and have it posted by Monday, October 26th. Therefore, all teams have until Sunday, October 18th to qualify.
If you would like your team to compete in Season 2, please post the names of at least 2 administraors (one primary contact, and at least one secondary contact) who will be responsible for making sure that the league games are started as scheduled.
Here is a link to the teams who have already signed up:

Looking thru the Vote Chess records for this team, it looks like you have played 20 Speed Vote Games and they have ALL timed out (you lost 18 of them by timeout - the only 2 you won were in the first hour). If you want to be in Season 2, you really need to finish a game first.
