It's taken many hours of work, but it's finally here: Chessnia's "play on-line" zone!

Here are a few things you ought to know about our play-online system:

• it's a turn based system, i.e. the time rate is much slower than systems such as ICC (Internet chess club). It's a bit like a correspondence game. Whenever you start a game, your opponent may be on-line or he may not, in which case he will make his move when he gets on-line again. Usual time rates are something like 1 move per day, although the time rate can be set before teh game starts. We are planning to enable faster time controls in the near future.
• Although you can choose your language, only English is currently working
• When we get enough players, you'll be able to create teams or join them. If you're accepted into a team, you can leave that team later and then join another, but you cannot be a member of 2 or more teams at the same time.
• All players are given an initial rating of 1500. You can choose whther to play with or without rating.
• You can add notes not only to your games but also to games played by other players, which makes game analysis quite a lot of fun!
• Although games played by other players cannot be downloaded at present, this feature will be enabled soon
• PLEASE NOTE that at present you can only play chess on-line when you have registered on our forums first. The play-oine area uses an authentification system which will only let you register if you have registered on our forums first.
