OpenChess

I would like to announce a new Chess Server -- http://www.funnode.com/games/chess

The server, although still in beta, has been online for several months now. We would like to invite anyone and everyone to play a game or two on the server and let us know what you think about the site -- We appreciate all comments/criticism.

Here are a few things http://www.funnode.com/games/chess has to offer:

• - Ladder Tournament!
  - Totally free (no premium / pay-to-play garbage)
  - Easy signup (although you don't need an account to play!)
  - Completely HTML5 / CSS3 / Javascript
  --- i.e., nothing to install and works on most smartphones and tablets
  --- i.e., "instant play" (no refreshing or opening new tabs/windows)
  - Play Humans or Bots (p4wn and Stockfish)
  - "Undo Move" and "Offer Draw" options available
  - Personalized Player Pages to keep track of Ratings and Ranks
  - Private Games (useful for teaching)
  - All games are Saved - Reviewable and Downloadable in PGN format
  - Chatting allowed Globally, In-Game, while Spectating, and while Reviewing
  --- offline and private chatting also available

Please feel free to leave comments/criticism either here, in the chat windows, or the forums (http://www.funnode.com/forums). Thank You!

Based on the provided feedback, many improvements have been made over the past few months - check out the changelog for details: http://www.funnode.com/news#changelog
