![]() ![]() If you feel yourself insulted because someone challanges you, then you don't qualify for this group. ![]() Such suspicion is INHERENT to the nature of Second Life and online chess in general it's okay "not to be sure" about someone it’s not an insult, given the subtle distinction between suspect and explicit accusation. then you don't qualify for this group, move on.Ģ) The chess skills of ANY avatar in Second Life can be put in question, and It should be dealt with. If you believe "it's amusing", "not a big deal". If you would like to join this group you must share this ideology and in addition to that bring the following motivation with you:ġ) zero tolerance for cheating at chess. Chess960 is to be taken seriously: many prominent GM’s - Leko, Svidler, Aronian, Nakamura and others, won Chess960 contests at the very top GM level in respective years. So If you are GM or IM you will also be relatively strong in those other variants of chess but if you're not - then not, as it's hard and sometimes nearly impossible for cheaters to consult engines and setup random positions manually while experiencing time shortages during the game. In other words if you play blitz/bullet or chess960 (Fischer random chess) the results should reveal statistically your relative strength the same way classical or rapid chess would do (taking into account numerous possible factors that may cause irregularities as well: ). ![]() The Core assumption: group Members assume that the relative strengths of chess players are convergent in any variant of chess. This group appeared to be the reaction to such Second Life phenomenon. Paid tournaments in SL became a magnet for these people. They gladly participated in SL tournaments and got paid almost unrestrained. Not surprisingly, there appeared some number of quite strong players in SL, including self-declared grandmasters and masters who did not accept blitz challenges, for some reason. Chess is also sport and all know what “doping” in chess is. The “anti-doping tests” have long become Standard in various sports. Participation in the SL Chess Community is requirement. Matches are negotiated upon cheater-unfriendly conditions that are convincing for the challenging side. Group Members can make mandatory game offers to each other (if not otherwise specified). ![]()
