Chessgames.com is an Internet chess community with over 224,000 members.[1] The site maintains a large database of chess games, where each game has its own discussion page for comments and analysis. Limited primarily to games where at least one player is of master strength, the database begins with the earliest known recorded games and is updated with games from current top-level tournaments. Basic membership is free, and the site is open to players at all levels of ability, with additional features available for Premium members. Consultation games are periodically organized with teams of members playing either other teams of members or masters, including a former US champion and two former world correspondence champions.[2]
Members can maintain their own discussion pages, and there are features to assist study of openings, endgames and sacrifices. The front page features a puzzle of the day, player of the day, and game of the day, the puzzle varying in difficulty throughout the week from "very easy" on Mondays to "insane" on Sundays.
