Hello Chessmasters :)

 

Me and my little brother both really keen on chess. But i have a concern. Can we use the same IP with different accounts ?

 

Thanks

I don't know what the official stance is, but my brother frequently accesses his account from my house and we have never had a problem.

Thank you Josh. I thought so aswell. Because that's not cheating or something else after all :)

Just let the staff know...

then i think you will be good.

Nobunagaoda

Thank you but how can i let them know ?

 

Sorry for noobiness Embarassed

Message Erik or one of the other staff members by clicking there names then message on the right hand side.

Im pretty sure they wont mind you messaging them, since you did make a thread and they never repleid.

This was asked by SonofPearl quite early on but the staff responses likely still apply. My memory is failing but I do not think SonofPearl was staff then.

yes u can

myself and my daughter are playing on same computer

different user

you can even play together in analsys mode but then no points or after u finish the game u can move to conditional moves put in the conditions of one player  and then the other will play natural and fill in is reply.

or play the whole game in conditional each making his move and the last move before checkmate play regular and u will get points

My mom & I both have separate accounts & we check before she signed on. They said different members can have different accounts as long as they have different email addresses & do not play each other. Hope that helps.

Thank you all folks :) Now it's all clear.
