I played a few games, got tired of the ads, really liked the site, so I subscribed. Now that I am subscribed, what do you think is the best way to get my money's worth? I've already entered one tourney... and wow. That sure gives you some games to play.

Welcome aboard! Look through the clan tables and see who needs new members. Message the clan leader of those you have an interest in and ask how many games you would be expected to carry. A friendly, helpful reply is a good sign.

I notice you have 40+ games in progress. Be real about how many you can carry and stay in good form. Only you can answer that.

And lastly just wait here, a guy named Dutch will be in soon and invite you to join his clan. 🙄

welcome aboard. The ads really did not give me a problem. You really don't get any special privileges upon subscribing. I joined to support the site and all chess players.

Also, join my clan Clan 24887

Yeah... I had a manageable 6 going on before I subscribed, but when I joined the tourny I got 47 new games all at once. It is a bit too many.

take a look at the tournament description next time. I prefer Duels (you play 2 games per round - white and black against one other player) or quads (groups of 4 where you play 2 games against each person in the quad - 6 games at a time). I would assume you joined a 'grand' or a 'split'. If you win the group your in, be sure to prepare for the next round to start at the most inopportune time.

Welcome to the site!

You can do what User 332714 did and join every available tournament.

He has halved his game load now. Had 1700+ games at one time.
