Statistics
To show the number of players in the club, their activity, you can find some statistical values here:
| Type |
Value |
| Number of active players: |
108 |
| Number of running games: |
118 |
| Number of moves yesterday: |
83 |
| All incoming email messages: |
4085678 |
| All outgoing email messages: |
6360159 |
A player becomes inactive if he/she is not playing in any game, does not have a pairing request, and sent his/her last message to the server more than 100 days ago. At this point he/she is temporarily removed from the players list, inactive players do not count into the above value.
Running games are those which have both players, have already started, but still didn't finish, so which are currently in progress.
Yesterday's moves are those which were taken from yesterday 00:00 until today 00:00 GMT.
All incoming messages are those, which were sent by the club members to the server from somewhere the beginning of 2002.
Outgoing messages were sent by the server to the players, also from around the beginning of 2002.
If you like to play chess, playing many games simultaneously, if you like to think your moves when you have time, and it doesn't bother you if your games last several weeks, then you are welcome to join
the club.
And here you can find some rather interesting than important statistics about pieces' activity in all the games since Jan 17, 2003:

Chess Tournaments
Modern chess tournaments began in the 1840s and the first international tournament was held in London, in 1851. Strong international tournaments were still quite rare and in the 1880s a master would have been lucky to be able to play in one reasonably strong tournament a year.
By the 1890s, however, a master could enter many strong tournaments throughout the year, and the prize money offered at tournaments made it possible for masters to have a professional chess career.
Nowadays there are many strong tournaments for masters and grandmasters, but there are also a huge number of tournaments for players of every strength. Weaker players today have the chance of improving their play by taking part in such tournaments, which are very competitive.

Logs
Logs record the important things, since sometimes we play many games simultaneously, and earlier things can also be important later.
Every move, setting, result, etc. are recorded in logs, these events can be retrieved from them later.
