How can I get more Cubits without buying them?

Question

I was playing Chess Cube on Facebook and suddenly this popped up and I am not able to play any matches.

Why is this happening? Is there way to continue playing? (Other than buying the cubits of course.)

Answer 2

Chesscube is not free --

You can play a few games for free every day, but after that you need to buy "Cubits".

Answer 3

Don't play too many games if u don't have cubits or you don't buy them. Just play one a day for your daily bonus. You generate 100 cubits a day so 100*10 days nets you 1000 cubits.

Only play lots of games that you bet on if you know you are good.
