While the Chess.com wizards work furiously to bring Live Chess out of the beta stage (perhaps "furiously" is too strong a word), I thought we'd try a pop quiz:

How long has Live Chess been in "early beta"?

a.) Since "late alpha" ended

b.) Since Morphy played Steinitz

c.) It's not in early beta -- it's in MID beta

d.) Don't know, that's before my time

b

Older THAN the pyramids.

I would guess C, although the event in question did happen before my time.  I'm looking forward to Live Chess Gamma - it will be an improvement of the best!  That's like if Hank Aaron came back and started hitting more home runs.  He would be adding to his already-record!
