Cup of Chess is Back!

Filed under: Cup of Chess Announcements

It has been a terrifically long weekend for the development team here at Cup of Chess. What was shaping up for an already packed weekend made a sharp turn for the worse when our production servers suffered from hardware failures this past Friday. On top of this, one of our developers had a root canal planned on Saturday, and another was off supporting a charity event (btw: please support the great folks at ACWP). Fortunately, the surgery went well and the “To Kids from Kids” event was a wonderful show!

Despite all of the activity, our development team burned the midnight oil and managed to migrate the entire service to another production facility. We are very happy to announce that Cup of Chess is back online!

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank the community for their kind words and support via email and blog comments. We strive to build the best online chess community, and we are grateful for all the positive feedback that is continuing to shape the site.

So, see you online!

Thank you for supporting Aid to Children Without Parents (ACWP) at our Seccond Annual To KIDS From KIDS Charity Musical Event on January 27th, 2007. We hope you enjoyed the event and hope to see you again next year.

ACWP not only seeks to make a difference in a child’s life but it is also our objective to offer the younger generation an opportunity to be more involved in the community and to reach out to other unfortunate children. Please help us to carry on with the tradition and continue to support ACWP in helping “One Child At A Time” as well as making a difference in the community. We welcome any comments and feedbacks from you. Please share your post-event thoughts. We will strive to improve each year.

despite my crusty comments especially regarding the disconnection problems, I certainly am enjoying the chess experience on cupofchess.com.

Not a bad app at all
one thing though
Why does the chat have to be so big
banner size would way big enough
could be under the game instead of over it
I do mean to be constructive and it’s not
like I do better or anything

New to site. Love it ! Sounds like the right moves being made to optimize every bodies experience.

Is chat a premium feature?

Can’t seem to activate. Any help/suggestions greatly appreciated.

Best regards…Bob
