From what I read it seems like I'll need to be invited into one of the team clubs or something before I can participate. Can I maybe get an invite from whomever has an open spot for either french or CK?

@verylate and @little_guinea_pig - I just need you two to confirm your elections as Team Captains, and @verylate to confirm whether I'm needed to complete Team French.  If so, I'll stay on Team French.  If not, I'll play on Team e5 to balance out the rosters a bit (since Team French is already pretty stacked).

Once I have these confirmations, I'll open the first match threads (Sicilian v. Caro-Kann and French v. e5), the Captains will decide their match rosters (Board 1 thru 7), and the matches will begin.

Seems like french's roster is full. Which team still have people short that I can maybe fill?

Thunder7

Thunder7

Thunder7

Hey dsmith if the games our daily won't some people use the engine

Chess.com's cheat detection team are quite robust and will spot engine use from a mile away so you don't have to worry about that. If you do suspect someone, just report and they will do the rest.

Anyone here wanna start a 1. d4 challenge? Teams: Team Indian, Team Queens Gambit, Team London, Team Horwitz Defense.

I mean daily chess is a bjt harder to spot but lets stop cheating discussion before this is locked

CastawayWill

1. d4 challenge would be better, but the problem with that is there's only 3 popular counters to d4, horwitz, indian, and d4 d5.

Actually, maybe a challenge with a c4 team, d4 team, e4 team, and Nf3 team would be fun.

Sure I am in but first let's get over this

Yeah that's not a bad idea. I would play in it.
