OTB 960!!

[COMMENT DELETED]
How do I find your game? We played once and I need a rematch....
That's a very low rating.
Oh wait..
@ wobbly. I thought 1775 was a pretty good rating. @ old guy. I can't start a new one using the 1 day timer. That's why I want to play over the board.
I was talking about 960 ofcourse.

Sadly i cannot start any new games on chess.com at the moment because in a couple of days i might have to go away for a little while & i dont have any vacation time on here. But I'm missing 960 bad! So I just downloaded a 960 starting position generator & searching for a opponent. Anyone?
Always have the option to play unrated games.
That's true. ...I really like playing a full game in one sitting too though. & 960 on a real chess board is nothing short of a life changing experience lol. I was hooked before, but now? ...just don't think there's any going back to reg chess.
I don't know how to post screen shots of a generated position that my opponent randomly picks. & then could just play through messages on here I suppose. So if anyone could help me out w that I would appreciate it. I'm on iPhone too.
Might have to get an app. Always have the option to post the link to it. Then somebody else can do it.
Thx sborg. Sent ya a PM
@ karolingo, sorry. The way it works is someone makes a post looking for a game, someone else replies to that post, 90% of the time both those players are online at the same time - this creates the OTB feel. After someone accepts a challenge in my personal games I ask my opponent to pick any random number in the 960 range or allow me to post what ever position shows up first in my generator, I leave the decision up to my opponent. After that's settled I take a screenshot of that specific position generated & post for my opponent to see it is what number they chose, then we set our boards up accordingly (this whole process seriously only takes 2 seconds).
Now it's on! The game begins & 95% of them get played in full in a single sitting (a very treasured quality for any player that hungers for a real life tournament style game). The normal game lasts 3-4 hours my longest has lasted 6 hrs. If either player needs to break for what ever reason the position is left set up & adjourning is not a problem. The game is usually finished the next day in that case.
The whole process is very simple & not complicated at all. Within a couple games players are hooked for life! (I know I am!)
Facebook chess is a rapidly trending play style & I strongly urge any legit, willing to play, player to stop by & give it a test run. At this point I'm pretty experienced in this style of play & no lie I have found it to be the most fun way to play in cyber space of all time!
I apologize for a delayed response. I don't check out the C.c desktop site anymore. (All I have is iPhone)
