For the Newcomers
Login as guest. Type GUEST and no password
is required.
You can play or observe a game as a GUEST,
but usually it is recommended to get a HANDLE
name before you play on WING.
A HANDLE is a name you will be called on
WING.
First, decide the HANDLE name you wish to
use. A HANDLE name must satisfy the following
conditions:
(1) It should consist of alphabets (case-sensitve)
and numbers only.
(2) The length of the name should be 2 -
10.
(3) It should start with an alphabet.
(4) It is not used by someone else on WING.
To check if a handle has already been used
or not, enter the following command in the
input area (usually bottom of the window)
after you login. For example, if you intend
to use a handle 'David', type
find David
If it is not listed, you can use that name.
Please take note all handles on WING is case-sensitive.
Therefore, David, david, DAVID are all different
names.
To register a new handle, you need to provide
your E-mail address.
For example, if your mail address is david@abc-net.com,
enter the following command correctly:
register David david@abc-net.com
If you wish to register your name as well,
add your name as well.
register David david@abc-net.com David Oistrach
If you typed correctly, the server will prompt
you to enter the handle name and mail address
again using the CONFIRM command, like this:
confirm David david@abc-net.com
After doing so, the server will send you
a mail whichi contains the handle name and
password immediately, which shall reach you
usually within a few seconds, or in a few
minutes, depends on your mail server. When
you have the password, come back here again
and enter WING with your new handle and the
password. Now you are a member of WING!
See you on WING!
