League of Long Chess
Hey! So, basically, the LOLC (League of Long Chess) is a league where you compete in a league with friends at long time controls. It is a learning experience and also is a fun experience. To play in the league, you must be able to play a game of at least 45 minutes once a week. Since only the most active friends are in this club, I hope this should be easy.
The Rules:
- NO cheating is tolerated! We expect everyone here to be honest and respectful.
- You must play a game of at least 45 minutes once a week unless you have requested a half point bye, or get a full point due to there being an odd number of players.
- Since this is a small league, we will make a forum for each pairing. Everything you negotiate, in regards to time of play, must be in this forum.
- If your opponent does not respond to you in the forum, you get a full point.
- If both players make an effort to play, but are not able to, the result will be a draw.
- If none of the players contact one another in the forum, each will get zero points.
- You may use a physical board and clock if you want to, and it is permitted to analyze your position with it to help you make your move.
- The games must be played online.
- Season ones time control will be game in 45 with a 5 second increment.
- Welcome to season one! And let the fun begin!
