Blitz Beta provisional help

The application may take a few minutes to load on a slow connection the first time you visit RHP Blitz. If after a short wait, nothing changes, then please check you have the most recent version of Macromedia Flash installed.

Unable to connect? This is probably due to a firewall blocking the required port for blitz chess to work correctly. Port 1935 must be open. You will therefore be unlikely to be able to play in your workplace.

Note : All blitz games are currently played unrated. Only your correspondence games will impact your rating.
