Is anyone interested in rapid transit chess? This was popular pre-1960. Clubs used to have RT tournaments all the time. Even some of Fischer’s early known games were RT.
in this format, a buzzer sounds every 10 seconds. The buzzer may last for 1 or 2 seconds. players must move during the buzzer or else they lose.
this was a popular form of speed chess before chess clocks became inexpensive. A club could hold a speed tournament with only a single timing device.
It would be relatively simple for the site to program this. Any interest?
