I just found a great website

www.gameknot.com

It's a great chess website.

Anyone fancy a game on it? I am called adamtheking on it, challenge me please.

You can also use  "blitzchess" and play random people in 10 min games.

I played some games on that site some time ago. But I switched to another site and played about a 100 games there. I don't remember my password, I think.

If you really want to play me I can look and see if I can remember or rediscover my login.

It's because I have an account on another site. I am not really interested in playing on gameknot.

I just got banned from gameknot. Stupid website. I hate it !!!


I "violated commands". But it does not explain how. But apparently to get my mebership back I need to buy a membership. BAHHHHHHH

It was a great site, just it banned me so I am bitter.
