Late tomorrow night (Sunday PST) we will be closing down the site for an hour or so while we make some of the biggest site updates yet! I'm not going to spill the beans on exactly what is coming, but I will say that there will be a few really cool new features and we will also be introducing site memberships. We could really use your help in two ways -

#1 - help us check for bugs and Report Bugs that you see after our release. 

#2 - if you love the site, then you could become a premium member and help us out a little bit :)

Thank you for your help making this the best online chess community!

Erik

Yes, I am the guy who started Chess.com (along with Jay, Igor, Piotr, and many others). I have 3 amazing daughters, one wild son, and a wonderful, patient wife! I learned chess when I was 8 years old. Since then I have been playing, studying, and enjoying it regularly. I prefer semi-open and closed positions that blow up tactically (like the Closed Sicilian, King's Indian, Glek etc).
