Okay, here's the PM I prepared. Sending it to everyone right now.
TL CHESS MATCH UPDATE:
Because of the second delay in TL Chess Match #7 - East vs West, the game has stopped again. In the meantime, qrs (the host) and the members of Team Orient got to the conclusion that current format of the match does not work. Because we want the game to continue, we've already decided to make the changes as following:
- To transfer all Team Occident members to Team Orient.
- To give qrs Team Occident's position, which he will play on single-handedly.
- To change the deadlines as follows:
qrs: 48 hours per move + time handicap in form of 24 hour extensions, whenever he's too busy to be on the internet and analyze the game. (More details, including the exact time of game restart, to follow).
Team Orient: 48 hours per move, no extensions.
If you are willing to continue the game under new regulations, please PM me or post about it in the match thread BEFORE SEPTEMBER 11TH, 00:00 KST. No confirmation will result with a removal from players' list - in case of that, you will be forced to post ##JOIN Team Orient in the thread to start playing again.

Me as well. But it seems nobody looks or contributes to the team messaging
|
Just curious, why do we vote with the ##VOTE 1... e4 formatting? Why not strawpoll on the separate strategic forums
|
Well, when qrs is back on the topic, he'll surely answer this question. As well as some questions I have for him...
|
Sorry I haven't been able to play the last few days. I'm all for either format actually. If we could keep the team vs team format it would be better IMO, but that might not be possible.

I'd be happy for someone else to take over running this in however he sees fit, but if people want me to take over the Black side of this game and keep it going, I'm willing to do that. The rules you posted above work for me. We can also go with the system of letting people move early and stockpile unused time, or give both sides a certain number of extensions, so you wouldn't have to give me a handicap that way. Anything else?
|
Sent you PM, qrs, hopefully we will get to some detailed conclusions...
It feels weird to change the rules of this thread alone, but I guess the lack of discussion and total weirdness of recent Occident elections (people posting without taking 5 minutes to look at position and vote, what the...) forced that solution.

What? I leave 2 days and the world goes to pieces. Marv spamming our QT and qrs is nowhere to be found. I was not following the time zones but qrses pie charts to see who had to play a move, my fault. So, new rules say I am in team orient now?

Yup, basically, we are waiting to gather the lineup for Orient and restart at the time qrs chooses.

Thanks for organizing this qrs! I hope there can be a next time that goes much smoother. I don't think I will be participating in the continuation with qrs vs. the world, although I might be following along in this thread and the qt thread.
|
Eh that's okay I guess?
I'm just a mascot anyways.
/confirm

So is the game going to be continued or not ?
if yes then I vote for :
##VOTE 10...e7-e5
PS. Oh, and by the way.. How the hell did Nh6 go through ?! It's a terrible move..

The game is over. We've been talking about maybe playing out this position with different teams and a different time control, but in the meantime, Team Occident has forfeited as per the rules of the game.

I see, thanks. I would still play it from there as black, with O-O as next move.

- This game is over.
- There will be a new game starting from this game's final position with qrs playing Black and everyone else playing White.
- The new game will be hosted in a separate thread ran by me. (Here: TL Chess Match 7.01: The World vs qrs).
- The new game will start on Wednesday, September 11th, at 13:00 PM KST. From that point on, qrs will have 48 hours to make his 10th move (not counting possible 24h extension in case he cannot be on the internet). We, playing White, will have our voting for 11th move afterwards, with 48 hours window to vote (no extensions).
- Any more questions? PM me.
