| Posted by demuziekdoos ability-tw.com 1/24/2004 14:50:42 Play online chess |  Subject: How about a 'join team match' button?Message: Hello all teamcaptains (and others who read this as well) At this moment if you want to join a personal game you just have to click the 'join game' button and you can see if you can join a game. Would it be an idea to ask Mike to make something like that for teammatches as well? A teamcaptain can start an open team match and other team captains can join if they want. One thing must be said. The way things go at this moment that the challenging team must accept the players from the other team must stay in this form as well. It's only an idea, if you all think it's not usefull then we don't ask Mike. If a lot of you think something like this would be usefull perhaps we can ask Mike to put it on his 'to do list'. My opinion on this matter is that perhaps it would be a nice idea but I'm not sure if it will work. Let me know what your opinion is in this matter. Please keep to the point and respect the opinions of the others. Enjoy your (team) chess games! Paul (demuziekdoos) |

| Posted by gohan2535 ability-tw.com 1/25/2004 06:35:36 Play online chess | good Message: idea never thought of that,another thing is how your oppenents cannot see who is available and it takes even more time sorting out who you have available,do you think we could get a bar on the side saying "max team games"? anyone like this? |

I don't know if you need to know how many teamgames the player from the opposing team has available but it would be very handy to see the available players from a team I intend to challenge.

| Posted by blanka ability-tw.com 2/01/2004 07:22:33 Play online chess | Paul Message: I think you have posted in the wrong forum. I saw it only by accident. Improvements for this site should be discussed in the Gameknot forum (although this is team related). About the idea itself: I do not know yet if I would like it. I usually select the teams iI want to play for a reason, not at random. Examples are to get revenge on a negative score... :-) That would be lost with this scheme, so I am not sure if I would use it.

Chess news: Veteran Has Staying Power, but 19-Year-Old Will Be No. 1 -- Two of the biggest chess events of the year ended last week with champions who are at very different stages of their chess careers. In Khanty-Mansiysk, Russia, Boris Gelfand of Israel captured the World Cup, outlasting a field of 128 players. Though he is No. 7 in the world, and will be No. 6 when the new chess rankings come out on Jan. 1, Gelfand, 41, is not likely to be an elite player for many more years, particularly when chess is increasingly a young man’s game. His staying power — he has been among the world’s best chess players for two decades — is unusual. With the victory in the World Cup, Gelfand has qualified for the candidates’ matches to select a challenger for ... Another Dose of Chess Nostalgia -- Tis the season, or perhaps the year, for nostalgia. In September, Garry Kasparov and Anatoly Karpov, the former chess champions and rivals, played a 12-game exhibition match in Valencia, Spain, to commemorate the 25th anniversary of their first championship match. On Friday, another match between chess legends began in Elista, the capital of Kalmykia, a region in southern Russia next to Kazakhstan. The match is between Boris Spassky, 72, the former world chess champion, and Viktor Korchnoi, 78, the two-time (or three-time, depending on whether the candidates final in 1974 is included) challenger for the world title. Like Kasparov and Karpov, Korchnoi and Spassky are old rivals, though ... Magnus Carlsen to the summit -- Magnus Carlsen has achieved his aim. With his victory in the London Chess Classic last week, the Norwegian grandmaster grabbed enough rating points to climb on top of the January FIDE rating list. What's next? The title of world chess champion, of course! But that might be out of his hands since FIDE often shuffles rules and regulations at whim. Magnus has to wait at least till 2011. For the time being, FIDE is scheduling the world chess championship match between the titleholder, Vishy Anand of India, and the challenger, Veselin Topalov of Bulgaria, next April in the Bulgarian capital of Sofia. Carlsen was playing hard in London, perhaps pushing his luck in a few games. After defeating ... | |
