Hi Richard,
 I would be interested in "quick" games as described in your posting. Sounds 
good for friendly games but I'd try tournamnet games too..Let's do this!

Hi All,
 
Is there any interest in setting up some sort of "Blitz" 

correspondence game category?
 
We would, of course, have to work out some sort of rules, 

but first I am wondering if there is any interest.  Some ideas that come to 

mind are:
 
* Both players agree to move at least twice a day (honor 

system)
* No reflection time, that is keep the move more than 24 

hours and you lose.
* Some sort of total elapsed time limit.
* Score as tournament or friendly?
* Other ideas?
 
Anyone have some ideas to put forth?
 
Obviously, this would mostly be for the "hot dogs" that 

want to play fast.  But it could also be a good way to tune up your skills 

too.
 
Richard
