  Okay i need some help with some info, are there any real life players who have titles or have ratings over 1800 fide? I know that mr aleman is 1780 ish but are there any titled players that come here often?
  Belfast Bishop,Pitbull what;s your pro rating and do you have any titles?Same question goes to all you "elite" chess players out there.

  Actually my ELO rating works out at roughly 2150. However this is nothing like GrandMaster Standard who tend to have ratings of about 2500 or more.
  The best players i've seen on GC over the last couple of years would be Belfast Bishop, Mughetti, Sir Durs and GM of Puppets.

  I would certainly agree with Mr Aleman Sir Durs GM of Puppets, and Mughetti are amazing players, however there are others.
  PS: Mr Aleman whats your actually BCF or ECF grading because I always see differernt things.

  My BCF rating which has just come out is 185... That equates to 2175 as an ELO rating. This is based on around 10 officially graded games in the last year. People like Nigel Short and Michael Adams are graded around 250.
  
     
  
  
    In my opinion....

  ...the best EVER at gamecolony would have to be KingLoek. He hasnt been here in years though. He is GM Loek van Wely who at the time was rated 12th in the world. Most GM's,IM's and what not, will not say who they are or what there elo is, he was very open about it. GM_Online is another real GM, Wrath_of_GM is another GM who has not been here in a long time. I guy named Financetto, which is just bad english for Fianchetto, was the first IM at gamecolony a long time ago.

  Ive met and played with Borat Sadgidev a retired FM, he's a nice guy and amateurs can be glad to know if they claim a scalp!
  I wonder if Zzona and the other 2900s+ are in real life super gms? that would be cool...   
  As for me...  My IM coach George Xie says my rating is around 1800-1850 which makes me a first category player. I remembered when I was around 1300 here and now im approximately 2100+! all in around 3 years. 
  This site is great to test out opening theories  for serious tournaments and fast games for fun 
  What I find though and Im sure some people will agree with me , is that this site is 200-300 points overated from their actual fide rating or national rating. 
  For example a consistent 2000 with an all time high of 2200 in 5 minute blitz would be 1800 -2000 fide ish while a 2000 in 1 minute will be around 1600-1700ish.
  Thanks to Indo Dro for the info you must be an old player here!
  I also notice (im just rambling here), that there is a physchological barrier of 2000 where some people find difficult to pass.Same thing with me though ive passed 2000 i remebered whenever i got close to the mark ( around 1980ish)I would shake like crazy and be nervous. I guess after you consistently get to 1900 you get to relax a bit and eventually do get over the mark.What im saying is, have respect for those who are 2000 they mastered the nerves! Also thats why some people will stop playing after they get to 2000, the nerves will rattle them.

  Is anyone here knows Monster? He is very good player too. I am first category in Serbia. But here I can play "free style", to test opening. And  category means nothing when you play serious. Like in karate...real "fight" ask from you to "survive" and category then means really nothing! GM-s show their strenght just then...
  
     
  
  
    When will be any tournament?

  Hi, I played bullet chess for years on here, 50,000 games in all. I have been up to 6 on the ladder and have beaten anyone on the ladder in bullet chess. after years of gamecolony i entered USCF and came out of my provisional period at just under 1800. I stick to bullet chess.

Play chess tournaments online
 
At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!. 
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!).   The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
