good idea 
Chat Thread
Sort:
I like that idea. But what should the chat be used for?
I tried doing a chat forum in my country, but I think users like chatting in the notes section better, and so do I. Probably different for every team.
Of course in large groups it is not a matter of preference, but a matter of pure necessity to keep group notes usable and uncluttered, and use a forum chat thread for things like chatting.
example:
(transferred over here now, deleting it from the group notes over there.)
Such questions can even much better be answered in a forum.
https://www.chess.com/groups/forumview/world-league-2016-divisions
and
https://www.chess.com/groups/forumview/chess960-world-league-divisions
are the very recent links to simply show the info, and of course asking his country's admin directly would have been even simpler, and better than alerting many hundreds about it many times.

- Yes,I agree It's a long season towards us and we should give our contribution for our countries.bye
by armendmulakaj1984 2 days ago
- Again, one can always ask questions if some information is hard to find. Also, I think that from an individual team-player's perspective, it really makes little difference to know the conditions necessary for the team to advance to a higher division right at this point: we have a long season ahead of us :).

- Your point is valid, Armend, but you have to realize that WL is run by a few volunteers -- you will soon find out that you need some patience with things: with info to be updated, with your corrections to match results being taken into consideration, etc. I think it's only normal and absolutely acceptable.

- Yes I know the rules well but a talked about others who don't know where to take information and in wlguide are little info and someone doesn't know where to find info by themselves.that 2 or 3 best teams needs to be clear.Is it 2 or 3 and someone dont know
by armendmulakaj1984 2 days ago
- It's worth noting that World League is constantly growing: divisions change in size from one season to another, so I guess that the number of teams advancing in each division also may change between seasons. Generally, two or three best teams in a season move to a division one level above, and two or three scoring the lowest results drop to a division that's directly below.

- Armend, myself I'm pretty new to the leagues, but the way I see it is this: any player who is quite so deeply interested in the point-scoring and other mechanics of the system can join this group and find information themselves. On the other hand, that's also part of our function as the national team admins: to look for answers if these specific questions are asked.

- Thanks I already now everything I need but still I am not happy with world league guide cause there are little informations.for instance,how many team move up from "X" division to "Y" etc,etc.I know those information but any new player dont know that
by armendmulakaj1984 3 days ago
- Armend please ask me if you need smth, will explain....
by artdo88 5 days ago
- Dear Armend, if you click on 'Forums' in the right panel, you will find the information you are looking for, in various forums, all well titled. :)

- Armend, we keep the World League Guide very short and simple, easy to read for all players. Organizational details will be dealt with by the admins who organize the matches.

- Team Captains can get several information joining the World League Headquarters group. They should answer these questions inside in his/her country group.
by bumika 5 days ago
- For example those info that gave me robert8867,can't be found in your link about WL rules and other things,f.e. how many teams moves up from each division and how many moves down etc
by armendmulakaj1984 5 days ago
- Why world league rules dont show a lot of information about wl but jusr how it coints point and something else not so relevant?
by armendmulakaj1984 5 days ago
- Thanks robert8867
by armendmulakaj1984 5 days ago

Hi - when is the next match starting (standard chess)?
Is it on the 15th of every month except the last two months?
(If it makes a difference, I am most interested in Division D)

@timothy_s001: Discussing a game still in progress is strictly prohibited, as are open accusations of cheating. Both are violations of Chess.com policy. If you have reason to doubt your opponent's integrity, you may privately file a Support Ticket.
Timothy, that sounds like just a mouse slip from your side.
To avoid that such mouse slips happen, change your settings for online games to switch on confirmation for each move instead of playing touch move in them.
When a mouse slip has happened, chess players accept that it has happened and move on.
just wondering, is it a must for each World League team to have 50 players?

thank you..
what about for chess 960?
Another discussion taken here from WL notes
-
just checked both teams, Netherlands has 15 more members and an average rating of 1568 to Hollands 1567 so no real difference, i'm sure most people would be members of both so you'd have to stick with Holland as they have the runs on the board and compete hard. My team playing them in 1st round and they have 110 signed up compared to our 56 :( I'll be PMing hard to make a competitive match out of it

Chess Team Holland is, and continue to be, the official Dutch team. And the only Dutch team who is able to play 200+ matches.

Guys, I have a slightly silly request 
. I noticed that it is possible to insert a miniature national flag symbol within the text of a commentary -- some of you do it when submitting links to WL team matches. I think that looks pretty cool . Could you instruct me how you do it? It might be interesting for more people, so perhaps it's worth a comment in this thread, but you could also write me a PM if you prefer.

I’d like to propose that two points Srbija Tim gained on 107 board are not to be counted in final score of this match due to a very sad loss of Team Canada member, and to express deepest condolences in behalf of my team.

If you would like to chat, please use this forum thread.
Please do not chat in the Group Notes.
If you have a question about the World League, please usually ask the admins in your country's group. They speak your language, they tend to know you best, and they may best know about the context you may be thinking of with your question.
