League table last updated: 50 minutes ago
Players are sorted by their league points, NOT their ELO rating.

Chess games can last for hours, days or even weeks. Time per move is set at beginning of game, for example '3-days'. Each player then has up to '3-days' to make their move during the duration of that chess game.

Your not limited to your own country. Anybody with an internet connection worldwide can login and be playing against you. So an opponent 4000 miles away could be attacking your King!

No dodgy chess software to download before playing. The game interface has been designed to run in your normal browser window.
