역사[편집]

  • 1995: Chess.com 도메인은 원래 "체스 멘토"라고 불리는 체스 튜터링 소프트웨어를 판매하기 위해 캘리포니아 버클리 소재 회사인 Aficionado에 의해 설립되었다.[2]
  • 2005: Internet entrepreneur Erik Allebest and partner Jarom ("Jay") Severson bought the domain name and assembled a team of software developers to redevelop the site as a chess portal.
  • 2007: The site was relaunched.[1] The site was heavily promoted via social media.
  • 2009: Chess.com announced a takeover of a similar chess social networking site, chesspark.com. Chesspark founders Jack Moffitt and Brian Zisk had moved to work on a web search startup.[3]
  • October 2013: Chess.com acquired the Amsterdam-based chess news site chessvibes.com, which provided coverage for chess tournaments. It was founded and owned by Dutch chess journalist Peter Doggers in February 2006.[4][5]
  • 2014: The site announced that over a billion live games had been played on the site, including 100 million correspondence games.[6]
  • January 2016: Chess.com announced "v3", the two-year overhaul of its previous interface. The site introduced new features including computer analysis of games, and the chess variants of crazyhouse, three-check chess, king of the hill, chess960 and bughouse.[7]
  • June 2017: The 2,147,483,647th (= 231-1) game was played, which caused the iOS app to stop working for those with 32-bit Apple devices. This occurred because of an integer overflow problem whereby the number was too large to be represented in the number of storage bits that were used.[8][9][10]
  • May 2018: Chess.com announced that it had acquired the 3300+ Elo-rated commercial chess engine Komodo, then ranked 3rd behind Stockfish and Houdini.[11] In conjunction, the Komodo team announced the addition of the probabilistic method of Monte Carlo tree search machine learning, the same methods used by the recent chess projects AlphaZero and Leela Chess Zero.[12]

토너먼트와 이벤트[편집]

Death Matches[편집]

Death Matches were introduced in January 2012. They feature titled players taking part in a series of blitz games over a non-stop 3-hour period (5-minute, 3-minute and 1-minute, all with a one-second increment).[13] There have been 38 deathmatches, participants including the grandmasters Hikaru Nakamura, Dmitry Andreikin, Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, Lê Quang Liêm, Wesley So, Fabiano Caruana, Judit Polgár and Nigel Short.[14]

Titled Tuesdays[편집]

Titled Tuesday is a 11-round Swiss-system 3+1 blitz chess tournament held on every Tuesday.[16] Grandmaster participants include Hikaru Nakamura, Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, Alexander Grischuk, Dmitry Andreikin, Wesley So, and Fabiano Caruana.[16] The first event was held on October 28, 2014, with a prize fund of $500 and was won by Baadur Jobava.[17] The prize fund was eventually upgraded to $1500.[16] GM Hikaru Nakamura has won the most events with a total of ten tournament wins, followed by GM Georg Meier with seven,[18] Magnus Carlsen has won three of the events in which he has partaken.[19]

Features[편집]

Chess.com operates a freemium business model: main site features are free but others are limited or unavailable in some respects until a subscription is paid.[49]

Visitors to the site can play on a live chess server and correspondence style games, called "daily chess" on the site. Players may also play against chess engines (computer chess), and participate in what the site calls "vote chess", in which players form teams and vote on the best move. Additional features include tactics training, puzzle rush, chess forums, articles, videos, lessons, chess news, downloads, opening databases, groups, live broadcasts,[50] daily puzzles, team matches, online coaching and a game database of over 2 million games.

The company publishes a large number of articles on a variety of chess-related topics, including chess strategy, opening theory and history. Regular contributors include Gregory Serper, Bruce Pandolfini, Sam Shankland, Dan Heisman, Jeremy Silman, Simon Williams, Daniel Naroditsky, Natalia Pogonina and Daniel Rensch.[51]

Users can play a number of variants on the live server, including crazyhouse, three-check, four-player, king of the hill, chess960, Racing Kings and bughouse.

Chess.com has a policy against the use of chess engines in all forms of the game, except where "specifically permitted (such as a computer tournament)".[52] It utilizes certain proprietary techniques to catch players using engines in games and bans many on a daily basis.[53][54]

Subsidiary companies[편집]

ChessKid.com[편집]

Chess.com also runs the subsidiary site chesskid.com for chess players of all ages. ChessKid focuses on a child-friendly environment aimed towards chess improvement for beginners to club players. It also has a guardianship program in which parents and authorized coaches can overlook the child's progress over time, to see statistics about their progress in tactics or how many videos they watched so that they can give encouragement and tips on how to improve.[55] ChessKid features no advertising.

ChessKid.com has run a yearly online championship called CONIC (the ChessKid Online National Invitational Championship), since 2012 which is recognized by the United States Chess Federation.[56][57] According to David Petty, the event organizer in 2013,

The online component [of CONIC] makes it unique because, normally, national championships require the players to fly in and stay in the same place. We had to ask special permission for the tournament because it is a rated tournament and there is a much higher chance for cheating.

ChessKid has made agreements and partnerships with chess associations to bring the educational benefit of chess to children in schools. In 2014, for a trial period, all signups to the ICA (Illinois Chess Association) included a free gold member subscription to ChessKid.[55] They also have a long-term partnership with the NTCA (North Texas Chess Academy) which gives children access to online instructors.[58]
