i often think the same as jpalasek. i know that "good luck" is intended as a friendly greeting but hey, we're not throwing dice here. i'm sure that chess sites are loaded with nerds like me who pick apart the most benign phrases imaginable. so in the interest of friendly interaction i propose that w...

quick slow-chess
how about a quick play mode for two players who are on at the same time and want to make several moves or finish a game all at once? this eliminates the back-breaking labor of going back and forth from the "my games" screen. i think it should include a real time chat function. keep up the good work ...

i'm a bit confused. in another thread started by slowblunder, gmiller cited uscf rules stating that using computers for analysis is forbidden and that printed material is okay. which is it? i don't have a problem with it but i think the rules for this site should be clear. it's been pointed out that...

Apples and Oranges
