ICC Help: simulize

Command:  simulize

The simulize command allows you to turn the game you are currently playing into a one-game simul, and allows you to add more games to the simul while you are playing. You can them issue manual seek or match commands to play more games at the same time.

It is not nessecary to use the "+simul <playername>" or "startsimul" commands to begin the extra games, as is required in the usual way to start simuls described in help simul. Simply accept the matches, and they will automatically be added to your simul. When all the games in the simul are completed, you will receive a record of your wins/losses/draws in this simul.

One use for this command is if you're playing a slow game, and your opponent refuses to move. Type "simulize", then you can put out a seek to start another game. If he eventually moves, you will be switched back to that board.

But be aware that the simulize command also disables timestamping of your moves. I.e. your clock may be running if you get lag.
