Online chess

[TheFLY]

Wondering if anyone knows of a good free online chess game (ie: human opponent).

I tried pogo.com -- too many ads and I couldn't get connected to games very easily.

here are a few:
www.chessclub.com/ www.kasparovchess.com/ www.chess.net/

hope that helps.

yeah chessclub.com

I got to playing 16 games tonight -- I got my ass whooped many times already but it's fun as hell... This last game I was down bad -- but my positions were good -- I had his peeps all constipated guarding each other -- I was free to roam on that bitch -- I made a major comeback w/ a suprise attack -- I like to keep 'em under pressure -- I took out half this guy's team man... then like a pro he gets his pawn in for a queen -- I woulda' had him in checkmate but I guess I got too excited and I made the wrong fucking move and he beat my ass with that extra queen... FUCK!!! I had him and I blew it... That's one thing I know about chess that I suck at -- you need total focus -- you gotta play like fucking Commander Data -- any human emotion will nip you in the ass.

Anyway I'm getting better at my openings. My openings suck ass but I'm getting better. Fuck memorizing openings -- when I get good -- people are going to play me and be like -- "What the fuck is this guy doing...? He's kicking my ass and I've never seen this kinda kung foo chess before!"

I will try some other programs though because this shit is $49/year and seems like you need to be a goddamn rocket scientist to figure out all the neato commands... It's like IRC on crack.

Even the sucky ass players on there are good. I figure anyone that can figure out the interface is already got an amazing IQ. I'm trying to recuit all these chess dorks into the Boneprone family eheh...

One guy said he would let me win if I stroked him off! Hahah! I figured he would make a great new Boneprone character -- we'll see if he joins up.

They all got this lingo "gg" must mean "good game" -- yeah right they are thinking, "Man this guy sucks ass and I beat him good!"

hahah!

It's too bad you couldn't erase everyone's memory of openings before you play - it would be much nicer.

I've heard of variants which randomize the position of the pieces on start-up, so that your 'troops' aren't always in the same place - this forces you to think at the start, and not just play from memory.
