Go up one level in this thread


Hi,

As the ad I placed on my search engine says, it is in beta tests. Until last
week we had around 10-15 players online (and a few chess engines to play
against), a couple of them IM or FM (can't remember right now). This week was a
moment of quietness, but players _will_ return.

We also have an adapter to allow chess engines to play on the site, it is not
released to the public yet but it will.

Officially the site will be live starting the month of April, and probably on
2nd of April will be organized the first big tournament. As you might have
probably read on ptchess.com, the idea behind the site is to play chess freely
(no strings attached) and pay an entry fee only if you want to compete in a
tournament (3 tournaments each week).

And we are preparing a nice puzzle feature :)

Apologies for the website beeing down, theoretically it should have been up,
maybe the webdesigner took it down temporarily, have to check.

Cheers,
Andrei
