CM Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Anyone like to play chess? http://gameknot.com/ a free online chess site starting out you can have 6 games going at the same time-then as you play and complete more you get more,and you have 3 days to make a move so it's not the intense chess games-although there is a java based blitz game thing that can be accessed, these are 10 minute games of course there are benefits for those who are paid members-but playing free is plenty for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zshot Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Three days to make a move Yahoo has a chess games that you can play for free. And you can set time limits :)--> Also, if you don't make a move in 10 min. you forfiet. I like games with either 10 or 15 min (on each side) time limit. Playing chess over the internet if good. However, playing somebody face to face is still my favorite way to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM Posted September 20, 2005 Author Share Posted September 20, 2005 yeah, i do yahoo chess too. and world chess network-but it costs money there's only a few world wide ones that have a decent size board that i like gettin' older and have a 19" screen even so i like the ones that have the big boards the 3 day move thing ain't bad really get to take your time and think and people usually move quicker then three days 1 or 2 minute games are fun too though can do that on world chess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

and world chess network-but it costs money
there's only a few world wide ones that
have a decent size board that i like
gettin' older and have a 19" screen even
so i like the ones that have the big boards
the 3 day move thing ain't bad really
get to take your time and think
and people usually move quicker then three days
1 or 2 minute games are fun too though
can do that on world chess
