FICGS Android APP beta version
The apps are now a bit different from each other:
- The Go app allows to easily replay the best games played at FICGS when there's no game to play (or when logged as guest)
- The other apps allow to play against a chess program (not too bad) when there's no game to play (or when logged as guest)
Hope it brings some more fun... To be continued.

FICGS restarts (2016 May 25)
thanks for all your work, i missed FICGS, was as guest in ICCF and chessworld.net during that time, but this is by far the best server :)

Guest account
The guest account is not a problem as there are several user modes (active, silent, inactive -> like the guest account), then instead of "cheating" maybe one could reasonably speak of "lack of fair play". You may be right as it may encourage it, however I'm convinced it would have real consequences in very(!) rare cases. Just my opinion, any others?
Garvin Gray (2009-11-04 12:20:13)
2 or 4 for me.
I vote for option 2. This could already occur, could it now?
1 and 3 open up all manners of pandoras boxes about cheating and probably worse and more likely, paranoia about cheating and advice.
This already could occur with people advising outside of this site, but I do not think this is something that should be encouraged by having a forum dedicated to it.
Also there would be no way to prevent a player in the game seeing the comments/analysis while they are a guest viewing unless only those who sign up to view thread can see said thread.

Garry Kasparov
One the video guests on Friday night's US television program, Real Time with Bill Maher, was Garry Kasparov who had been in New York (his family is still there for a while longer). Maher is a political comedian and most of his show revolves around anti-Bush humor. Everyone (including myself) was amazed at the knowledge (particularly of Middle East politics) and political maturity shown by Kasparov! In addition, he easily outdid Bill when it came to comedy, saying at one point that he was aiming quite a bit higher than simply being better than Bush. I wish we had him running for our president!

2 Thibault de Vassal:
Unfortunately, IGAME players are not understood here in correct way. Let me clear our position about names.
Of course I respect your idea of creating a friendly atmosphere on your cite by giving real names. If I will decide to stay here, I will play under my real name. But now I am your guest and would like to play under a nick-name. I hope, you can respect our IGAME customs. If you do not like my IGAME nickname Mobutu, let me play as Ivan.
By the way, a lot of information about IGAME players is available on our cite www.igame.ru: games, results, IGAME ratings and so on. Come and see, we do not hide. :-)
