There are also live games that can be played with time controls ranging from 1 minute to 45 minutes, but you can obviously only play against people who have some time available there and then. LIke me . . . now.
If anyone would like a 5 or 10 minute game right now, go to chess.com, register, search for Epicurus62 and challenge me to a game.

Come on Denny, we can't have a situation where all the participants will make the podium!! Mozter, you also strike me as the kind of fellow with an aptitude for a game like chess. Are you not interested in having a go?
I have not played a game of chess in probably 30 years, so I'll surely hit my name with a plank if I try to compete, but I respect you three for being brave enough to actually have a go instead of just talking about it. I'll be on the outskirts of Dulstroom this weekend annoying the actual fly fishermen with my dogs. So even if I wasn't too chicken shit to participate, I wouldn't be able to. So may the best man win! I'll be back in the land of the living on Wednesday next for an update.
I'm assuming of course that the results will be published here?

Okay, so I suggest we each play the others twice, once with black and once with white. That's 4 games each.
I think 30 minutes each is way too long. I'm thinking more like 10 minutes each for a 20 minute game. Whether I'm at home or at work, an hour is a very long time for me to dedicate without any interruptions.
I think what might be better than 10 minutes each is a 5/5 game where we get 5 minutes each plus another 5 seconds added to our clocks every time we make a move. It would probably also work out around about a 20 minute game but you can manage your time a lot better if you move really fast. Either way I'm easy but 30 minutes each is too long for me.
I'm actually free right now if either Klown or Plum wants to get their two games with me over and done with. I've just come home from the maxillo-facial surgeon who extracted a rear molar and put in two implant pins so I'm in a really, really crappy mood and ready to dish out some pain. I have to take tomorrow off as well so I'm pretty much available to play any time between now and tomorrow afternoon. Just let me know on this thread and I'll set up the games at chess.com.

Not mine either Klown, my blitz rating is a lot lower than my standard rating.
10 minutes each it is. See you tomorrow at 9 am!

So what happened to Rugby Only on the top page. Not that I give a damn, but the hypocrisy is epic. So Urinal is it now okay for other posters to pursue non rugby topics on the first page? If not, please explain the topic limits.

In other words: 'I don't have a leg to stand on, I'm a hypocrite'........thanks for that tacit omission Urinal.

No, in other words, shut your stupid cakehole. That's all I'm saying. No hidden meanings or innuendo or anything like that.
Only your pathetic Servile Gimps give a toss what you think about anything, Moffie.
PS Doesn't it embarrass you at all when you yap for my attention like this? Don't you feel the tiniest bit ashamed? (Don't answer, rather shut the heck up.)

Wehe . . . Baboon-ou getting pwned on the Trumpet so the most sickeningly fawning of the Servile Gimps chooses to lick his Massster's tailpipe clean instead.
Ugh!
The word "pathetic" doesn't quite cover it.

So much licking imagery.....what's a bet that's not envious imagination, but actually memory for Urinal. Here's the thing Mong, practice what you preach.
