Does anyone here also play on GameKnot or IYT or some other site? If so, what are your names and which site?

Whisperz is Whisperz generally everywhere except at Yahoo where Whisperz is Whipserzq (Monty Python fans will understand).

I'm "Juan Grande" on IYT. I'm working on all of my opponents (other than jestone, who's already here) to play Gothic Chess on BrainKing.com.

yeah, i just found out that IYT limits non-payers to 25 moves a day... so you cant finish games fast... so for now, i would rate brainking as one of the better server-based game sites around right now. Except that it is down at around Zero Dark Hundred [12 midnight] EST nearly every day.

Site owner to figure out how to update without switching off the site for a while?

and the 25-move limit is down from 40 when i first started in IYT 6-7 months ago. since i only play 4-5 reg chess there now, i didn't notice the reduction.
