Subject: Re: Anyone want a quick game?

The idea to play fast,that means "live" with,for instance 15,30 or 60 minutes for the whole game,surely is a good idea.But it should be a separate category of rated games,because it is a big difference if you play correspondence chess - turn-based - with a long time limit using all possible resources or if you play live (like otb-games) with a real short time limit.
One possibility to play live on the internet(without a server) could be a small freeware from Germany called MAX (Misc./download).
Until yet you can play chess,janus,checkers,reversi,go and perhaps can I ask the author to add also "Gothic chess"?
