Nation chess! Once at least ten people from a country are logged in they'll matched up in a chess game with people from a different country. The entire nation (or at least those who are logged in) votes on each move.

I'd love some help if anyone is interested. I'm still in the planning phase.



Einstein apparently said Nationalism is an infantile disease: the measles of mankind. Perhaps take the nation thing out as a base element, so you can have any group of people and it doesn't encourage this kind of politically divisive and outmoded thinking.


I think it's a great idea! I'm sure a friendly chess game between nations will not end up encouraging nationalism and political division :)


Bah! Pure humbug.
