I tried to log in at chess --24 -- but got redirected to chess d-o-t com.
Hope it didn't get bought out...I really liked their content..lots of GM tournament coverage, etc.... anyone know what happened?

Some years back, some members tried to set up an entry, but it was considered to be "advertising"...I might have some sketch still somewhere.

It gets a mention in passing on the Correspondence Chess page .. but seemingly no dedicated page.
