chess games

new player looking for chess games.

Go to the waiting room on the left side of the screen. There you can either play chess with someone who is waiting for an opponent, or place your own request for a game.

Only games in tournaments can affect your rating. Sign up for a tournament (the simplest is a ratings tournament, with only four players) and it will automatically be started once there are enough players (acutally, the tournament program isn't running right now, so you might have to wait a week or so before a tournament starts.)
