Discussion about club or correspondence chess related things
  Forums


On April 19. 2004 forums started. Club members can talk each other here about club or correspondence chess related things.

There is an open forum, where visitors can send messages without registration or logging in.

Please follow this link to open a new browser window to the forums.

A short manual for the forums:
  • The discussion flows in different forums, each dedicated to an area, such as club related things, or CC related things, etc. You can open each forum by clicking on their names. You'll get a list of the topics of that forum.
  • There are different topics that players have started to talk about a specific thing inside that area (that forum). Somebody posted a question, or wrote his/her opinion as a new topic, others can read and reply to it. Clicking on a topic you'll get a list of the posts the players have written in that topic.
  • Players need to register to reach all the forums. Most forums are open for the public for reading only, registered players can write also. With registration you can customize your settings, can send and receive private messages, and you can have many great things not available for visitors. Use the nickname here also that you've chosen in the club.
  • Players can start new topics anytime, and can reply to messages in any topics. Forum administrators can start new forums, according to players' requests, or other needs.
  • Moderators take care of the cleanness of the forums, abusive, rude, and agressive posts are removed.
  • Forums are available in more languages. They can be reached from the other language variant of this page.
  • Please use English only on the English forums.
  • That's all, these are the most important things. We hope it's interesting to meet the players, your future and past opponents here also.



Reliability Calculation

The server calculates a reliability factor for each player acccording to their actions in the past few weeks.
This value is influenced by many different things, for example if their settings are correct, if they had a timeout in a game, or if they have unannounced vacations, etc.
The value is always between 0 and 10.

New players start at 3.5.
After they set up their basic settings such as the country code, gender, real name, birth year, this value goes up to 5.
If they successfully start few games and also finish them in order, without timouts, silent vacation, the value raises around 6.
As they finish more games, and as the time goes without any problem with them, the value still raises.
Players with many months of membership and with a lot of games and without any problems can go over 9.

This may help players to find the right opponents, and may give them an approximate view about their future opponents, without personaly knowing them.
Protecting serious club members, players with too low reliability (less than 5) can't enter for new tournaments.

Hi all,
I haved a question. Even though your club has a team option, when does your league start a new season?

Probably your e-mail software doesn't support JavaScript. Try to shut it up (Set JavaScript Off). Try to answer the moves by using the reply function of your e-mail software simply.
