How much did ICC pay you to write this "review"? Seeing as you forgot to provide a list of pro's for FICS and con's for ICC, it's hard to imagine your review is objective. Why not address these in your review: - Why does ICC have a 600 point difference between USCF rating and ICC rating? My FICS rating is within 50 points of my USCF. Certainly they could normalize these ... or is that they support the "see an improvement in your game" argument. - Discuss the history of ICC and FICS. Many people, including myself, are still bitter about the sudden disappearence of ICS. - Discuss the articles describing how to cheat on ICC (http://eprint.iacr.org/2004/203) I'm watching live coverage of the Corus tournament on FICS. I also plan on playing in the nightly 5 0 tournament. Based on your review, this isn't possible.
