Does anyone remember when Bowmann threatened to defect over to GK? He came in here and started telling everyone how great it was. He pointed out that at GK :
It was free to join.
Non subs could start an unlimited amount of games.
Non subs could also join tournaments etc.
Well I have just been over there and all this is true I think. One thing non subs can't do though, is participate in the forums.
Wonder why Boweee came back?
😛😛😛
EDIT
Membership fee Number of simultaneous games:
Silver $6.99 / month ..................30
Gold $39.95 / year ....................50
Platinum $59.50 / year ...............100
Titanium $99.50 / year ...............200

I'm afraid you got the wrong venue, my friend. You must be referring to [b]Queen Alice.
Forums open to all.
No fees.
Sorry I have to say this Jim, but you are a plonker![/b]
EDIT: Does Queen Alice have them annoying flashing 'congratulations' banners, and such like?

I have a different username too. Wonder how long it takes you to fathom out who I am? Or will I find you first? BOOM! 🙄
Another advantage: Players can post PGNs into the forums. No need to load these into chess software. Just play through them on the virtual boards!

Originally posted by rbmorrisI'm playing a few games over there now. My first day and it seems quite a reasonable site. Doubt I'd ever subscribe at those prices though. Bit of a rip off.

I'm half expecting a postcard with 'e4' written on the back of it tomorrow. Let's wait and see.

EDIT: Out of the first six games that I have started, I've had fried liver slapped around my face in five of them. Tsk.
Originally posted by jimslyp69Yeah, I play on gameknot because a friend started a clan (or whatever gameknot calls them) and asked me to join. A couple of the features like "conditional moves" sounded great at first, but I hardly ever use them. It also runs slower than RHP and has a less intuitive interface. All in all, I'm not a big fan.

Edit: Ok Russ, I said what you told me to say. Now can I have my free membership?
Just kidding.
