Default Re: chess on the web question

I have to say, FICS is very good site. Free to play. Rated games. I watched a lecture earlier that was free. They have a free video lecture that I didn't click on but Im sure there are others.

Plus I watched a GM play an IM.

Im happy with FICS.

tough games tho

[/ QUOTE ]

I downloaded babaschess to play on the FICS server. Babas must be some sort of an overlay type program that works with other chess servers as well. Maybe Im wrong.

I really like the babaschess look.

Im checkmateNY if anyone wants to play. Im rated 900 so bring your "A" game. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

ICC is popular. I play on Playchess, which is wonderful in my opinion. Live streaming commentary by Yasser Seriawan cannot be beat. It's free for me, but I think that's a result of a glitch with Fritz 8.

ICC is rigged. Just accept that I pwned you for a draw once on FICS and that's why you quit.
