"ICC is the most humorous and enjoyable club I've visited."
-- Grandmaster Michael Rohde
"Day or night you can log on and find an opponent. Unlike a chess machine,
your partner will play brilliancies and blunders, just like you. Oddly,
technology has put humanity back into away-from-the-board chess."
-- The Economist
"The ICC is the only place for me to practice chess with my busy schedule."
-- Grandmaster Maxim Dlugy
"An unparalleled meeting ground of global chess talent. Its 24-hour a day
availability will satisfy even the most hard-core chess addicts."
-- International Master Mark Ginsburg
