The "no draw offer until move 31" rule seems reasonable.

Also, what's the point of Condi Chess? To combine the love of chess with the love of shuttle runs and sprints? I'd rather do Boxing Chess.

How about this: your opponent has to do pushups, situps, and pullups while it is your turn. We can call it "Presidential Fitness Chess".

I really like the new draw rule. There are too many instances where two GMs are playing in a tourney and agree to a draw early since they can both stay ahead of the pack with the 1/2 point.

Draws 30 moves or less

Game 3090192
Game 2853423
Game 2749288
Game 2876238
Game 2807407
Game 2854554
Game 2955555
Game 2872499

That condi chess looks hilarious. Would love to see a video of that in action.

I like the new look of the site and the game where they have the clock 10 feet from the board. 🙂
