lcss$@ Join LCS! It is free! Have fun and improve your game! Advertise yourself, your needs/preferences and find your best ever playing/training partner! More info: "finger antiseptic".My alias. It is like lcs, but this one uses only tell/shout text. I'll decide where text will be sent: or as "shout"/"cshout", or as tell/xtell to channel/individual. Usage examples: "lcss t [user]": "lcss t antiseptic" or "lcss xt antiseptic": "lcss xt [user]", "lcss t [channel]": "lcss t 90" or "lcss xt 90": "lcss xt [channel]", "lcss !", "lcss :", "lcss it"
t0tell $m You are talking to yourself.Direct "tell" to yoursel and test the tell

How to set up an alias?
Type in main FICS console "alias", space, alias name, space, command that will be used when typed alias name and pressed "enter".
Let's say you want to say your last opponent "Good game" by typing only two letters gg.
To set up this alias type in main FICS console:
alias gg tell +o Good game
Press "enter", and your alias is set up! NOW YOU CAN TYPE gg an press "enter", AND YOUR LAST OPPONENT WILL GET A TELL "Good game".

Favorite FICS commands

moretime [seconds]
takeback [halfmoves]

Who would not like to have a move back in a long game after unintentional move when game just started(and all players have plenty of time)?..

Also it is nice to get each other more time, especially, when both players have similar digits in there clocks and the players enjoy the game, or situation is really complicated and pleases to be solved.


[The list is not finished. Any suggestions for useful and more notable(then generally it is) commands? ]
