Hi guys,
My name is Ralph Basden, I am using Tina's Access with her permission.
(Tina went to Sydney for two days work & ended up in Surfers Paradise until who
knows when.)

I served my free week at ICC:

"Statistics for WaccaBBall
          rating [need] win  loss  draw total   best
Bullet      1588  [7]     1     0     0     1
Blitz       1483         38    19    11    68   1483 (22-Apr-2000)
Standard    1668         13     5     1    19  "

My record against computers 0 -  9 -  0
                  humans   52 - 13 - 12   (I played mainly 1300-1450's)
My mate Joe played a couple 0 -  2 -  0

ICC was great, & $50 US bucks is probably reasonable.

Anyway,
Today I joined FICS, using the excellent information Georg posted for me.
I downloaded "Chess Client" & while it operates well, the pieces arn't the best.
Georg recommended "Freak" or "Thief" but I couldn't find either.

What's the "Clearest Pieces" "Easy to use" Bestest free Client, & where do I get
it? Should I be a Winboard User?

Thanks again
Ralph Basden
