Player account settings area has now been named as "Control Panel". This can only be accessed from the top of "My Games" page. "My Account" has been removed from the main menu.
Various improvements have been made. Most obvious are; holiday control panel has been moved to this area, change of email address now requires email confirmation, seperate avatar and picture upload sections and additional pre-defined avatars.

From today, when a new member joins up and creates a new account. That account must be activated using an activation email we automatically send to that player.
The new player will be unable to login until that email has be received and the activation link contained inside clicked on.
An account not yet activated will be invisable to everyone else.

Password security increased. From today, all new members joining will have to select a password for their new account that's minimum 8 characters in length and must contain at least 1 numeric number.
Existing member's passwords will stay unchanged of course, but if they choose to change their password from their account setting, the new rules for the new password will apply.

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.
