System requirements
The rating system
For each match an "expected" score is calculated from the rating difference of the two players (if the ratings are equal, the expected score is 0.5).This expected score is then compared to the actual score of the game (1 for win, 0 for loss, or can be anything in-between for multiple ends).
If the expected score for the player was higher than the real score, the rating drops, if the score is higher than the expected score, the rating is raised.
Formulae:

Where We is the expected score, and dr is the difference in ratings before the match.
The rating change is calculated from the following:

Where W is the score of the event, We is the expected score, n is the sum of the scores by both players.
The system is based on the rating system developed by Prof. Árpád Élő.
What does ≈ mean in front of the rating?
The ≈ sign means that you have played less than 20 games, therefore your rating is "provisional". The sign will go away after the 20th game.Ratings are calculated differently if you play against such players. The rating adjustment will be less.
If your opponent has never played a game before (denoted by ---) the rating change will be half of the normal. If your opponent played only 10 games, the rating change will be 3/4 of the normal, if your opponent has played 20 games already, rating change will be normal as described here.

How can I enter tournaments?
Most of the tournaments are only for subscribed members. Though occasionally there are open tournaments for everyone. Please check the tournament calendar for details.
If you are eligible to enter, all you have to do is attend the tournament room at the given time.
Removing ads
Any kind of advertising is annoying. Unfortunately it is necessary to keep viable a busy site like this.Since several people complained and requested accessing the site without advertising, it was launched a package of premium subscription services.
These are exclusive services made available to subscribers that pay a small fee of USD $25 a year.
Among other services, it is included the possibility to access the site without advertising.
If you are interested, take a look here.

Mogu li promijeniti početnu grafiku?
Možete promijeniti set figura tipkom F3 na Vašoj tikovnici,a tipkom F8 birate različite boje ploče.
Full screen mode
Full screen mode is only available for our subscribed members. To activate full screen mode, press the F11 key on your keyboard after you start the game. The game can be also resized to any size. Simply drag the corner of the browser window, and resize it to any size you wish.
Non-subscribed players can only use the zoom levels in the browsers. Zoom is usually applied in most browsers by pressing the CTRL and + key on the numpad simultaneously (CTRL - for zooming out, or CTRL 0 for default zoom).
It might also be needed to maximize the game window, which can be done by clicking on the small icon next to (x) in the upper right corner of the window or pressing ALT+SPACE+X in some browsers.
The resolution of the game will not change, it is simple image zoom, so the resulting image will be little more blurred.

Što je Informant Šah?
"Informant Šah" razlikuje se od klasičnog šaha u samo jednom detalju. Naime,bijeli pijun koji dođe do predzadnjeg (7) reda,može ostati PIJUN,ali može biti i promoviran u jednu od slijedećih figura: TOP,LOVAC,ili SKAKAČ. Isto vrijedi i za crne pijune na drugom redu (2).
Informant Šah je vrlo pogodan za igranje na internetu,s obizrom da je promocija vrlo jednostavna.
Ova se pravila trenutno primjenjuju u svim 10 minutnim sobama na FlyOrDie.
