Hello all I would just like to announce I made a group called 

Team discussion group Magnus Carlsen

. It is very important every one joins it and votes based on the consensus reached there because in vote chess games people vote too soon and/or ignore the discussion, thus hurting the chances of the team. Moves are often made even though all of the strong players are screaming about how another move is better. Unity is the only way to succeed at vote chess, especially playing against the world number one. I'm sorry if such a group exists already although I didn't see one

I do think this is the first group, and I agree that we need one for this match.

It should definitely be interesting.

RAW chess challenge

It's Carlsen vs. the world. I guess it's analogous to Kasparov vs. The World, and in fact the whole thing is in affiliation with Kasporov or something.

Can't Judit Polgar overrule an absurd vote?

I hadn't heard that, but I don't know much about this game. That would surprise me, though.

Please post a link for the group.

You give them your e-mail address and they will contact you later as an entrant.

It should be really exciting - so thanks to chess.com for organizing it all.
