Use the link "New Game". You can create a new game or accept one of the waiting game invitations. You can use the message system to find an opponent, too. 2.) What happens after a game starts? All invitations of both players are deleted and both players are automatically forwarded to the game page. Most games (exception: ChaosChess) can be aborted before two moves have been played, in this case they are not rated and not counted for statistics. 3.) How often do tournaments start? A new tournament starts every three hours; time limit is 15 minutes per game, game types switch in alphabetical order. It is a single-elimination tournament, so the first 2, 4, 8 or 16 players which signed up can participate. In case of a draw, the player with the lower rating advances to the next round. If there were at least 8 participants, a tournament win is counted for statistics. 4.) The game page is not reloading. It is recommended that your browser supports JavaScript. Otherwise contact me at admin@differentboards.com, your account will then be modified, so that the game page refreshes periodically, even if your opponent has not yet performed a move. 5.) Which types of memberships are offered? There are only two types of memberships at the moment. Free members may play as long and as many games as they wish, but there must be at least 20 minutes between two game starts. Full members can play a new game merely 2 minutes after they started the previous one. 5.) How can I support DifferentBoards.com besides becoming a member? You could tell your friends to join this site, place a text link to DifferentBoards.com or use the following banner: If you have further questions/comments/suggestions feel free to contact me at admin@differentboards.com.
