Would it be possible to set up a 'real time' chess mode option between players? We all know that in a 'real' game, more of the human element is brought in. Perhaps the time per move could be set, or even use chess clocks. Maybe a start time could be nominated using GMT. What yas rekon?

Check out the Site Announcement forum. Somewhere in there is a thread about RHP Live. It's under development and I think once Russ has some more time it will be one of his projects to get running.

Take a look at the RHP live forum and you will see that Russ started working on that. There were some bugs and the project is currently on hold.

I believe Russ intends to continue with this and make it a reality, but I'm not sure where it is on his priority list.
