Welcome to LFT!

This team is mostly focused on 60+30 events with one round per week, in each round the paired players schedule their game, then play at the set time. Our events are commonly multi-month-long commitments so please read the rules of events you join. Most events have a forum to join and see pairings.

We also feature other events with different time controls such as 10+2, 25+10, 30+20, 3+2, etc.

At the moment all events are made by me, @Dude128.

Team names cannot be changed so we have a name from the original leader of the team who quit at # 11 members.
