"After sitting out of computer chess for a few weeks I attempted to play in Infinity Chess’s Freestyle Tournament last weekend. I can not tell everyone how excited I was that a new chess server had come online, providing engine players an untainted place to play. (To be honest, I had become disillusioned with the wild west show being put on by Chessbase over at Playchess.) I had great hopes that Infinity Chess would be better."

I think people have to realize that this sort of thing is very common with anything that is new. It will take some time to iron out all the little bugs ... hopefully after that this site will become popular with Freestyle chess. Freestyle chess games are probably the strongest chess games played on earth.

Distracting people from platforms using other open protocols and let them pay for using the proprietary one? I'm always surprised how many people like it to pay more than necessary.
