    The average mafia/forum games poster is not your typical cricsimmer tbh.

    Spark is a bit of a genius though. We're all numpties in his eyes.

    i've played with "proper" time controls before.

    trust me, if it's not a ~proper~ tournament of something it's a waste of bloody time, because it can take ages.

    Yeah I'm SamVimes.

    Not sure how you actually challenge specific users though.
     
  6. 99* JJ Ritchie

    If you're friends I think you can challenge them.
     
  7. Magrat Garlick M Garlick

    Lasted 40 moves against Ritchie. :toot:
     
  8. 99* JJ Ritchie

    :laugh:

    I wish handicaps were available for one off games. In some of the tournies there a better player will be missing pieces+time based on how much higher their ranking is.

    The challenging thing only seems to work when you've played a certain amount of games, which sucks.
     
  10. 99* JJ Ritchie

    I'm not online if you're trying against me again. :p
     
  11. MASTERS S Masters

    you guys seen Kasparov play? remember a while ago they showed him vs Deep Blue or something
     
  12. Magrat Garlick M Garlick

    Ah, you can only challenge online players. That makes sense. :shy:

    yeah your rating will bounce up and down a lot for the first twenty games or so
     
  19. weldone RM Chowdhuri

    What's your rating in chess.com?

    Mine is 1408 after 2 matches (both wins against 1200).
     
  20. weldone RM Chowdhuri

    In fact, I won the 3rd game too (against a 1220 rated guy).

    So, my rating is now 1481.
