Welcome to our cross platform chess match in which we explore and showcase the ability of the Steemit platform to transcend its own boundaries by playing a game of chess with the Russian speaking world via the Golos platform.
Here's the current position:
And look at that. We've transposed to a Queens Gambit Declined. This keeps things very much within opening theory.
Mission
This will be a 'one off' game between Golos and Steemit. The main benefit is that if hundreds of people can use Steemit to interact with something outside of Steemit, more of the world will see what this technology is capable of.
You can play for fun, for pride or for money.

I am the final judge in all matters.
I promise to act with complete honesty
In the last game I noted some dummy accounts and multiple accounts held by the same owner were used to manipulate the vote. I will not allow this. Also, votes from non active users may be ignored at my discretion.
