It is a beta and fairly unstable. What browser were you using?
Does anyone else fancy a live game?

well, i've registered as vincent1989
dad taught me to play from the age of around 6 and it wasn't till i was about 8 that i actually beat him, it took a while but these days i usually beat him 2:1 or better.
used to play at secondary school as well, breaks and often lunches amongst the 'smarter' people in my year group and used to do fairly well. haven't really played much since, enough to keep 'in practice' but haven't improved on my game much since school.
if anyone fancies a game just add me, i'm still unemployed until friday next week so should be able to get a few games in
edit: aww crap, forgot how much i hate chess on the PC, can't visualise the board and pieces properly, can observe my opponents expressions or see the moves they do (the piece just appears there without showing what piece moved and i miss it and lose something important) blooming thing
