ChessChat Rotation Game
This game was played on the
ChessChat group,
between Weldon MacDonald, David Surratt,
Greg Turner,
Dave "Grobler2001", and Graham "Mad Aussie" Clayton.
Play began May
25, 2007 and ended several months later.
Prehistory of the
game:
5-23-2007
Fellow chesschatters, A couple of years ago several chesschat members played
a "rotation" game, alternating moves. Here is an account of that game:
http://www.didymus7.com/nost/rotationgame.htm. Would anyone be
interested in taking part in another game? I think that this time only 3 or
5 players should take part, so that moves are made quicker. - Graham "Mad
Aussie" Clayton

I would, I played on the first one so I know how it works - Weldon MacDonald
5-23-2007
Wow, what a flash from the past! Graham, thanks for stirring up the
memories, I enjoyed that experience greatly. It was especially beneficial to
"listen" to everyone else's ideas and analysis as the game progressed, and
to be forced to put your own thoughts into words. The play may not have been
at a particularly high level, but that didn't diminish the interest of the
game, I don't think. I'm in! - David Surratt

What are the rules exactly? I read my mail on a pretty much daily basis, so
I could participate if you like. I understand there are more people in the
group than the few who normally post responses. - Greg T.

If I join in that will make 5 players. With an odd number of players each
player will make a White move in the game, followed by a Black move. David,
Is there any chance that the Chessville site could "host" the game?
Each move and comments could be posted there, so that there is a continuous
record of the game. I will create a schedule of which player will make each
move and post that at the beginning of next week. Then we can get started! -

Fellow chesschatters, Here is the schedule of moves for the rotation game:
White #1 Weldon
Black #1 David S
White #2 Greg
Black #2 Dave
White #3 Graham
Black #3 Weldon
White #4 David S
Black #4 Greg
White #5 Dave
Black #5 Graham
White #6 Weldon
Black #6 David S
White #7 Greg
Black #7 Dave
White #8 Graham
Black #8 Weldon
White #9 David S
Black #9 Greg
White #10 Dave
Black #10 Graham
And so on till the game is finished. Weldon, will you do the honour of
making White's 1st move, and give reasons why you chose that move? Could you
also mention who is to make the next move as well. That should eliminate any
confusion and lengthy delays. - Graham "Mad Aussie" Clayton
