That New Chess Server

lichess for life..still tattooed on my chest. Nice try buddy.

#8 this is VERY true! How many times can you use the letter 's' in one website address???

My first thought on visiting their opening page: now those cash prizes are going to be a big incentive for anyone who happens to be developing an algorithm to make an engine play just the right side of human ... be interesting to follow developments.

I can't un-see it.

"with live commentary by Emperor Garry Kasparov".

I'm a huge fan of Kasparov's chess and his career...but he has some real boneheaded business decisions on his resume.

From LinkedIn: "The Company has successfully developed a sophisticated interactive chess supersite www.chesscoliseum.com allowing chess players around the World (600 million and growing) to play on line, follow broadcasts of the major tournaments and matches, including proprietary events, predict the moves with prizes to the winners (unique feature), learn to play and enjoy the game.

What was the point of OP? Show us a chess site straight out of the 90s?

I will stay with Lichess, I am also a platinum Chess.com member (for video content) I just wondered how this site might be received. At the end of the day from October it is just another pay platform to play chess.

I am open minded and will look, but my experience so far is far from supersite.
