Comments/Ratings for a Single Item

I would like to encourage use of the Yahoo group known as the Chess
Variants Gameroom. Since it was created a couple years ago, it has
received little use, and its membership has remained small. But, due to
recent changes in how the PBM works, this mailing list could become much
more useful than it has been in the past. This mailing list was originally
created to request opponents and organize games and tournaments. This now
all becomes easier due to new features in the PBM.

The PBM now has the ability to issue invitations. These may be directed to
one individual identified by a userid or personid, or they may be open
invitations directed to a mailing list. When an invitation is issued, a
log is created, and the game begins after someone fills out the form for
accepting the invitation.

To issue an open invitation, you answer 'Yes' to the question 'Is this
invitation open?', and you use an email address to identify your
opponent. If the email address on file for your userid happens to belong
to a mailing list, you can use the PBM to mail open invitations to that
list. The invitation includes a link for someone to follow to accept the
invitation. Anyone with a Chessvariants.com userid and password may accept
the invitation, which is done by following the link and filling out the
form found there. Once someone accepts an open invitation, it is closed
off to others.

I recommend joining the CV Gameroom mailing list with the same email
address you have on file for your userid. This will let you send open
invitations to that list, and it will let you know about open invitations
sent out by others.

Here is the link for this mailing list:
