    Just got it Toby. Was in the middle of a game, won through pawn promotion, accepted a rematch, and was behind until he resigned out of nowhere.

    Only two days left for your move. Better hurry ;)

    I just played a random game but suddenly I lost apparently on time - did not realise there was some sort of 10 minute game

    Leo the Live chess has a 10min rule, but you can change it. NNW and I are playing slow chess, every time you make a move you have to press a button to confirm, and the time limit is 3 days :)

    I saw that but thought it meant you had up to 10 minutes per move - not 10 minutes in total :)

    Guys when you're logged in there's a small bar that appears at the bottom of the screen. On the right there's a friends list, you can chat/invite for games from there <ok>

    Oh - and I have started a Chess "Group" so hopefully we may find some fans at other clubs who also fancy a game - feel free to join the group and encourage others there too
