Chess implies a game, of which there are plenty already.
The novelty would be a conversation platform that overcomes the primitive urge to game everything.

Chess implies a game. Conversations that are games already exist. It makes your idea dumb. Dumb ideas deserve no space.
Conversations that are not games are rare. That's an idea worth pursuing.

I'm not afraid of games. I can play them if it is the only thing available. In fact, I can play the most terrifying role (for gamers): the role of ending the game and opening up space for reality.

I was suggesting you had chosen a bad name. But then, you gamed the conversation, and assumed that the bad name follows the bad idea.
What I did to describe it, would be the equivalent of an en passant pawn capture, in chess terms.
