chess.net over FICS. I`ve never had a problem with cheating there, and the I think their front end interface is better than any of the free ones I`ve seen that can be used to connect to any of these three sites. Actually, with regards to cheating, chess.net has the best policy I`ve seen anywhere on the internet regarding people who cheat by disconnecting in the middle of a game: they lose automatically, although if they re-establish a connection, they can resume the game and undo the loss. But I also only use chess.net as a place to play other players at my own level, or slightly above. I will admit that ICC and FICS both seem to offer more in the way of lectures than chess.net. And from what I`ve heard, ICC has more masters who play there regularly, so if you want to go watch masters play, it`s probably the best spot around for that. ---------
I love deadlines. I especially like the whooshing sound they make as they go flying by.
