http://en.lichess.org/blog/VRsPQy0AAC4A-ucI/lichess.org-is-sold-to-chesscube-pty-ltdthe moment i read the headline i knew lichess would no longer be free.
I am quite heartbroken by this news, not all of us can afford it..
Man, this so-called 'Cubit' system sounds awesome!
those 752.000 sound even more awesome :)
I fell for this :(
I think you sort of dampened the impact by putting "april fools" so close to your first post, Dragon.
;)
Still, many readers of the original blog will be surprised!
I fell for it really bad I thought that my chess practice for tournaments is riuned
The moment I read the headline I remembered April fools. Thanks lichess!
I fell for it completely! I was thinking it might be an April Fool's trick but it's not yet April Fool's Day for me then I remembered the time difference. :S Great trick! :)
7 th point is the best! "Shut up and take my money"
I fell for it. I'm completely gullible. Moral outrage and righteous indignation were building in my chest as I read. I was getting ready to mount a futile campaign, proclaming loudly that selling the site is against everything lichess has pretended to stand for. And the facebook thing... for a moment, I was ready to leave lichess and never look back. Kind of reminds you of the value of the site, eh?
