blitz

VR and I managed to play a game just now and the blitz site does seem to work fine for now. The 'exit' box at the top right corner of the page wouldn't work for me on my laptop, but that's a minor thing.

If anyone has problems trying to figure out time zones, your browser probably has an add-on that allows you to list various places and shows their current local time. I use firefox and added 'fox clocks' which works fine on my computer. I have included GMT on my clock list so that works nicely for this idea.

You can back out though even though the red 'exit' box doesn't seem to work. As you said in your previous note, just a minor thing.

I wanted to see if you had a game going and if I'd be able to see it being played or not.

@Very-Rusty

Were you able to observe the game?

I remember in earlier times there would often be several players on the blitz site with a few games always in progress, and you could go in and watch them if you wanted. I think there was even a window that would show who was watching any particular game.

I sometimes wonder if the blitz site would be more popular if there was a rating system maintained, but kept seperate from the main RHP rating system.

Well he wasn't playing anyone at the time, so I just left.

Yes, I remember when we could watch a game being played don't know if it still works that way or not.
