Lichess team

Hey all, I know a number of us here play on Lichess so I went ahead and created Team MafiaScum there. The password to join is "omgus!" (no quotation marks).

My idea is mostly that we can use the "team" (really more of a group) to find one another for real-time chess games, but maybe we could also run an event of some kind there if enough people are interested. The team also gets a private message board and I started a thread there so you can let everyone know who you are when you join.

I play a little on chess.com but may make a lichess account! I didn’t know this feature existed, but it sounds cool!

Nah, lichess ratings run about 300 points higher than chess.com so that's not really an accurate comparison.

Nice, this gives us a membership of... um, two.

I was kind of hoping there would be more interest than this! But two is better than one.

The subforum seems to have died down a bit again in terms of activity, so maybe when it picks up again more people will see it and join?
