FAQ
FAQDo I need an account?
No. You can play as a guest. An account gives you ratings and rankings, game history, contacts and private messages.
Is it free?
Yes. The site is supported by advertising. Premium removes the ads.
How are ratings calculated?
We use an Elo system with a starting rating of 1200. Games against bots, guests or at unrated tables never change ratings.
What happens if I leave a game?
In a two-player game you lose if the clock runs out or your opponent claims the win. With more players, a bot continues for you and you finish last.
Can I take back a move?
Only at unrated tables where takebacks were turned on, and only if your opponent agrees.
