Playing Chess on FICS, Free Internet Chess Server - Associated Content

FICS is the best for free chess games with 'normal' time controls.

You need a client application to play at FICS, there are some good options. You can play from your browser (requires a Java installation if you lack it), or one of the clients they link to at the Free Internet Chess Server (FICS). I like Winboard, but many aren't happy using a client without a seek graph for instance, I never mind, I always used the console to begin with. Winboard isn't specifically meant for use with online chess servers, which I like, it also makes a decent default PGN reader and it can work in combination with Crafty..
Babaschess is pretty popular at FICS, then there's the quite similar Jin (I used it for a while before concluding all I needed was in Winboard) and I liked Jin, similar to both these is Thief.. If you've ever used the ICC (internet chessclub) software, Dasher or especially BlitzIn, you'll note the abundant similarities. If you can use one of these, you can use them all.

Yep I agree i used to pay for my servers with things like world chess network and ICC but now I just use FICS witch is just as good. I would say the only difference is you dont see as many GM'S playing. lol with me im rated 1550 on fics so i dont need to play a GM to get a lesson.


Good luck
Kristina

FICS ( registration is free)
ICC (I think you can try it for trial)
chesspark (you can register for trial)

There's :: Play Chess Online, Blitz Chess and Speed Chess and InstantChess.com - Play Chess Online (Cup of coffee compatible) too

maybe you can try gameknot.com
you can either find blitz chess(ten minutes) or 3-14 days per move...Even though it has still some deficiencies, it worths trying
