Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

JogWalker - I've updated your nickname now.

For everyone else... the chess.com nicknames appear in our league table (if you're on mobile, hold your phone in landscape). These nicknames link through to the profile page of the relevant player on the chess website.

Dio has (imo) improved noticeably since wanting to quit.

Not sure where I went wrong, as I selected Challenge on Goofee's profile and set up the game parameters - nothing seemed to happen when I clicked 'Play' (or whatever it said), so I made the mistake of clicking it twice more and then had three game notifications pop up in the top right corner.

Currently playing three games by the skin of my teeth. Slightly more stressful introduction than I'd hoped for!

Actually Funky there's a fourth game waiting for your opponent to make the first move!

Just take your time, no need to move quickly!

Crumbs. Well this is certainly a baptism of fire. I'm not even sure what levels of player I'm up against, though it might be better not knowing.

If you get in quickly, you can abort. Once moves are made, I think the only option is to resign.

Cheers SPR - I've aborted the 4th one that was waiting in the wings.

I'm still getting beaten, mostly. I'm being especially cautious in our current game as I have a tendency to attack way too soon and leave myself vulnerable.

Catching up on here, in the runners match my black game is going very well, whilst the white game is OK now, though I thought he was better earlier - he should have left his knight on c4 rather than take mine on move 18. I'm having quite a hard time in some of my fetch games though.
