Hey Gang!

It's been a while since there's been any mention of vote chess in the forum, so I figured to create a new post. 

Although there's something to be said for being able to make moves under time pressure, I believe taking time to read the board and analyze positions produces a deeper understanding-- especially for beginner-intermediate level players.

If daily chess encourages more accurate play-- how much more when we all put our heads together and discuss each move!

For that reason, I was glad to see that the previous captains were implementing the strategy of discussing moves for 2 days, and then voting on the 3rd day once we're all on the same page. 

Hopefully there will be a solid base of players participating in these games, and we'll all be able to learn from each other!

*UPDATE 

Here is a link to the previous guidelines, which are quite good.

Also going to post in the comments the "let's discuss" and "vote now" queues for easy access and identification.

Good stuff. Got an open seek for a match going currently. I was gonna challenge the #1 team in the world, but thought we could save that for the second match. grin.png

Once the match is set up, how will it work? Will there be just a certain group of players voting on the moves, or will it be open to everyone?

Avatar of Yorygog

It should be open to everyone who is participating.

@leekaiser @yorygog It seems there is a setting of how many players per team... This match defaulted to 5v5, however I would try and set it to unlimited moving forward!

No problem.

Thank you for letting me know.
