kibitz

  Usage: kibitz message

Sends your message to all the observers of a game AND to the players, too. Note: it is considered bad manners to discuss the game with other observers by using this command because doing so might assist the players. Instead, use "whisper" in order to discuss a game you and others are observing.

The standard alias for kibitz is "*".

NOTE: If you are observing more than one game at once, using kibitz can be tricky. It is possible for the kibitzed message to be sent to another game, if the game being observed changes suddenly.
