more people need 2 join the vc games!!

The Fortnight Speed Vote League is registering teams now for Season 3, and this group is invited to participate!!! We play Vote Chess at 10-mins per turn. This is an incredibly fast, exciting and intense way to play chess!!! The entire game is played in a single day, with each team making a move every 20 minutes. Since it is so easy to timeout at this speed, these games are scheduled in advance (usually on a Saturday) so that each team can have their players online and ready to play. No one needs to be online for the entire game (although many choose to be), as long as there is SOMEONE online every 20 minutes to make a move. With each team making exactly 3 moves per hour, an average game lasts 8-12 hours, although there have been a few battles that raged for more than 24 hours. Because these games can be so time consuming, we have decided to switch to a monthly schedule so that each team will only need to play 1 game per month (starting in June). If this group would like to play in Season 3, please go to this thread to register: http://www.chess.com/groups/forumview/fsvl-season-3---registration You can follow all the action in the League Headquarters (everyone is welcome to join): http://www.chess.com/groups/home/the-fortnight-speed-vote-league-headquarters Thanks for taking the time to read this!!! I hope to see you all in Season 3!!!

Hello Everybody, Since you guys are #46 on the Vote Chess Leaderboard, I wanted to invite you to participate in the next season of the Fortnight Speed Vote League. We play Vote Chess at 10-mins per turn, which is incredibly intense, exciting, and addictive. It can also be very time consuming as an average game can last 7-10 hours (the longest game in Season 1 was over 21 hours), and SOMEONE needs to be online to make a move every 20 minutes (no one needs to be online for the whole game of course, as long as SOMEONE is there to stop the game from timing out). If this speed is too fast for you, I can completely understand, I just wanted to give you the opportunity of joining if you wanted to. All you need to do is complete 1 Vote Game at 10-mins per turn (against any group) to prove that you can go the distance without timing out, and put your name in this thread (before October 1st): http://www.chess.com/groups/forumview/season-2---teams Anyone who wishes to follow along with the League is welcome to join the headquarters and/or browse the forums (even if this team doesn't join): http://www.chess.com/groups/view/the-fortnight-speed-vote-league-headquarters We've had an incredible first season (we're in the Semi-Finals right now), and we're looking forward to an even better Season 2. Hope you can join us.

We need more people in our group!

Ihave issued a team match challenge. Will automatically start when both teams have 5 players.

All in favor of another VC game say (post) aye.

Um, I have been wandering for a long time about this... I don't know how to place a note in ... Group~ How do I do it?~

Well, I've been campaigning for "Best Group Manager of the Year" for many months now, but since Chesskween has thrown her hat into the mix, I haven't been able to post a single comment anywhere. I'd feel too guilty competing against her. So I'm switching my campaign to "Member of the Year" since it's the only other one that I'm in contention for (although I was a lot closer in the other one). Good Luck Jane. I'll tell people to vote for you. I hope you do the same for me.
