"One game" matches

Post by dixsept » Sun Dec 10, 2006 3:16 am

I've just begun new match n° m1165709089. It's my first "One game" match. With 8 games to play with 8 opponents, I have white 6 times and black only 2 times. Could it be possible to improve net-chess in order to get same number of white and black games for future "one games" matches ?

Colors are assigned randomly when an odd number of games are posted. Then, colors are alternated. I am not sure that this would be an improvement, as most challenges tend to be an even number of games so that each opponent plays both colors equally.

Just my thoughts.

Yes Hamot, "most challenges",... but not all of them. "One game" matches allow me to meet various opponents without two many games to play...
I'm sorry that I would not be able to change Net-Chess programs in order to get this. But it would be fair if everybody could have same number of games with white and black.
Thank you for your reply.
