- Rules for Chess Teams:
-
- Players can be a member of only one team at a time.
- At least 5 wins in any regular rated chess games are required to be able to join a team.
- Team captains and co-captains can challenge other teams to a team match, or accept/decline other teams' challenges.
- To challenge another team, a number of players (at least 2) is selected by the team captain/co-captain. The other team responds
with their selection of players (equal number). The first team's captain/co-captain then approves the selection,
and the match is started.
- Each team match consists of a number of games with the time control set to either 3, 5 or 7 days per move,
2 games per each player (one as white and one as black). E.g. a 3-player team match will have 3 players from each
team and 6 games will be played total (2 per player).
- The result of each team match is determined by the combined score of all games in a match
(1 for a win, 1/2 for a draw, 0 points for a lost game). After all games are finished in a match,
the participating teams will be assigned a new rank on the Team Ladder.
- Each team game also affects the team's rating, using Elo rating formula (just like the player ratings).
- When a player quits a team or moves to another team, all games started while being in the old team will
still be counted towards that team's rating.
- Teams can have up to 30 free members and an unlimited number of premium subscribers.
- Only premium subscribers with Platinum or Titanium memberships
can start a new team or act as a team captain/co-captain.
- A team can only have 1 captain and up to 3 co-captains. Team captains can promote regular team members
to a co-captain status. Co-captains can challenge other teams to a team match, and accept or decline other team's challenges.
