I must be getting old, I havent played chess in quite a while so I thought I would log on here, but the ole' fart can't figure out how to start a game with someone... Oh well...I'll try later, who knows I may win a game or two if I can get some direction....Thanks!
I know it's frustrating being new . Nobody seems to want to play provisionals . I don't normally do this , but I'll send you a challenge if you want to play me .

Originally posted by SnowbirdRookieClick on the Open Invites tab. Once you are there you will see all the games that other people are looking for. Players can choose to set a maximum or minimum rating for the opponent that they are looking for so there may not be a game that you can join. If there is you will see the words "accept game offer" to the right of the game created date or rating. Click on "accept game offer" if there is a game available. If you are playing as white it will say "1 game waiting" in the red bar at the top and to the right of the page. If you are playing as black you will have to wait until your opponent makes the first move.

If there are no games for you to play click on the New Game tab and create a game and try and find an opponent. You can set whether you are playing as black or white, the rating minimums and maximums for your opponent, whether or not the game is rated and whether or not you are playing from a set piece. You can also set the timeout and timebank for the game. If you know who you would like to play you can also challenge someone to a game.
If you can't find a game challenge me. I'm not very good but I am willing to play pretty much anyone.
Good luck and have fun.

How's it comming Snowbird ? You can click on people's names and check out their homepage . You'll see some stats telling you their record and opponent rating , etc to see if they're at your level or not before challenging them .
