also, please come by the IRC channel. this is were virtually all blitzs (short games were all the turns are played in quick succession) are started. Blitzs are very good way to get immediate exposure to what one can expect in an MP game.

Virtually all blitzes? Hmm... as opposed to the blitzes on my server?
But yes there is usually at least a blitz a day which plays alot like solo play, but with more people.

Most blitzes on IRC use your server gandalf. That in and of itself doesn't mean the majority of blitzes start that way, but I think it would be fairly safe to say that most blitzes started by players from this site start in the IRC channel.

you'll notice I said "started".

I was actually cognizant of the fact that most blizts are played on your server, and why I chose the word "started on".
