Karla is beautiful and valid.
>>550140432How does one properly analyze their games?
How come we haven't moved to /sp/ yet?
>>550140661OTB games, you're supposed to go back to where you think you made mistakes and try to come up with a better plan then check with engine. For online games, I would put then into the Lichess analysis and look at every inaccuracy, mistake, and blunder and try to understand what you should have done instead. Don't look k at every move. Just the bad ones and maybe ones you weren't sure about
In order to be a strong chess player, is it necessary to frown and look up at the ceiling?
>>550140659Karla was a guy larping as a woman online edition
>>550141435
>>550141909I don’t know that reference. Don’t you people like Candace Owen’s?
candace nuts
>>550142318like other anon said in the other thread i love crazy bitches, candace can grift to me all day if she'll be my black queenmaybe she can help identify karla as a man
>>550140805I got you>>>/sp/152492015
>>550140805we're waiting for candidates
>>550143206someone go and post there i dont want to be the first one teehee
>>550143206he's not gonna use it, he HAS to be the OP and shill his useless pile of links, it's a compulsion
>>550140667>>550142318>autists>immune to propagandalol
>>550143206Kek. Sweet.
i dont care about theoryi just wanna play moves that look fun
for some reason i thought sp had flags
>>550143206They nuked us :(
>>550145339I always castle opposite sides even when it doesn’t make sense for this reason
>>550143206>already nukedsee I told you he is the sp janny too, when he made sp generals they never got nukedhttps://archive.4plebs.org/sp/search/subject/%2Fchess%2F/
I mostly wanted to move to sp cause I thought the flags would help with the immense amount of samefagging here considering I'm two of the people here. I can only imagine how many of the people here (you) are.
>>550146981He must have absolutely no life at all.
>>550146981>see I told you he is the sp janny toowhy am i not surprised
>>550143206It is very funny that all the third world soccer fans mass report anything not related to their sport on there
>>550145339? post elotheory probably doesn't matter at your level
we should start a chess forum instead
>>550148771What if we post on the Lichess forums and identify ourselves with dog whistles
>>550148954soigoy lijannies would shut it down at any hint of funposting
>>550149075Such a beautiful day for chess. Happy Sunday guys.-Kev
>>550145339Go ahead, in fast time controls you can play without theory. I'm a consummate theorylet and still beat titled players in blitz and bulletWe do a little thing called "reasoning about the position"
>>550149075Teebeeeich funposting is what killed this site, among other things. Endlessly regurgitated postironic memetic garbage gets stale.
>there's like 3-4 whiny schizophrenic niggers that always suck each other off about how bad this thread is and make it unreadable>they regularly spam here instead of moving to /tg/ and just having their ideal epic threads therefor fuck's sake, mentally ill people just gotta ruin it for everyone else every time
>>550151010If I can't post about the evils of the jew or how much I hate jeets then the site is worthless
Let's discuss chessSomeone please redpill me on pawn endings. What book do I need to read to become master-level at these?
>>550151645The Holy Bible (NIV)
>>550151880I'm ESV supremacist. NIV has libtarded pronoun choices
>>550151645Dvoretsky (almost wrote Dostoevsky lol) endgame manuals
>>550151880>>550151918wtf kind of nerd shit is this i'd shove you inside a locker so hard your ribs would pop and give you pneumothorax on top of the asthma lmao
Does Karla count as a pawg since she’s white passing, but not white?
>>550151645>reading about chessEver heard of youtube
>>550153126Isn’t she Mexican?
let me guess you need "more"
>>550153823PAMG doesn’t really work
>>550154084What’s pamg
>>550151638This is the only reason I still frequent this godforsaken general. The quality of chess discourse is Reddit tier, but at least I don't get banned for making fun of jeets or writing nigger in my reply.
>>550151880Based.>>550151918Check out the NKJV. It's my favorite.
>>550146981Jannie’s on spee are complete faggots, wouldn’t surprise me a bit if he was amongst them
>>550155316Is the evil janny in the room with us right now?
One of these days I'll switch to 3+2 so I can learn endgames instead of conversion by flagging
>>550155837Probably, yeah. He’s reading these posts and seething that he can’t delete them
>>550157132How do you know he’s not a janny here?
>>550157840the thread doesn't look like this
found a guy with an even topsier and turvier blitz graph than minenaturally the poor lad ran into me on a downward spiral and got 6-0'd before he called it quitsI've been there pal, F (thanks for the rating though)
>>550158243Or he realizes if he goes full psycho again he’ll lose the general again.
>>550159706Watch out behind you!
>>550159434Bleetz is a fundamentally evil and psychotic game. Poor guy will probably end up in a mental institution within a year.
Chess is a sport more than it is a bideo bame
>>550160862hello how are you doing
Openers are overrated. A true genius can see through the chaos.
tfw high level players are spectating your games
Hypothetically speaking....what if I wasn't being nice in the chat?
>>550162463You two should play a match
>>550153880Reading it will make my pieces shoot lasers???
>>550162929He's way too strong for me. With Beary I can get some good games in, every now and then, but this guy is on another level. Unless he's drunk or about to go out and fuck bitches, of course
>>550162463you should play together, avenge your bongcloud lossyou guys are similar strength anyway
>>550164016Stockfish is a very powerful tool..
>>550164961You would know.
>>550164961Because you use it to cheat in case that wasn’t clear.
>>550164961Because you can analyze your games and learn valuable principles with its aid. Truly a golden age of chess
>>550164016Karla beat him 3-0
>>550166052how do we know that was karla? and not just someone using stockfish to test if he was cheating
>>550166187That actually kinda makes sense…
>>550166187Nta but I can confirm. I was there and I have a really good K-dar.
>>550166401also not that anon but i was there any one random guy said "hey guys thats karla trust me" and that was good enough apparently>>550166401oh look hes still here
>>550166187She self-identified to give her opinion that he wasn’t cheating, he didn’t know it was her until after
>>550166639I'll have to search for that post, any idea how i can find it.
>>550166827Just found the thread when it happenedhttps://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/90838178/#q90848437Appears you’re right, she didn’t self-identify and people deduced it was her. I could have sworn I remember her speaking to those games directly though, might have happened in a later thread
>>550166827So I found the guy who just randomly claimed it was her, as usual.
>>550168030It is her repertoire though, and having talked with her before I can say this sounds like herNot a stretch
>chess discussion begins>schizos immediately bring up fake e-celebs
>>550168314>We love catmixerHow does he do it bros
Hey! It's that dog someone posted in the last thread! I thought that was your dog!
>>550168449>Seething 1000 nonentity
>>550169286>>550168314All this nostalgia is making me want to drink and play chess against you guys.
>>550169971/vg/ is just reviewing the archives of /tg/‘s golden era now kek
Looking for a chudcel to play some 3+2 with. https://lichess.org/lqY8kXsA
>>550170486Gg I won't join the next one so someone else can join.
>>550168030Is the Staunton Cochrane a way of chudding it up and refusing to give Sicilian chads what they want?
https://lichess.org/9Wjf9pXgPlay white against my Dutch plz
>>550171810Will give other people time to join.
>>550171810https://lichess.org/AflA9fubNew link... closed the window lol
>>550171978Suss
>>550172829I've played memeteam before, he's probably underrated but not suspicious in terms of cheating
Suss
>>550172829it didn't look very suspicious to me, you're just letting the stockfish metrics get in your head
>>550174263It was too strong. He went from being a little worse and missing that I could win his rook to winning back the piece and raping me immediately. He also logged off immediately after. It’s suss and he should kill himself
>>550174498That combo where you won the rook was a blunder fyi kek
>>550175009Yeah because the engine said so not because it should have been a blunder against the likes of him. I’m saying it’s suss and you’re not going to change my mind, so don’t bother
>>550175267I'm sorry you feel that way
I’m sorry you’re a 1500 who feels the need to cheat in anon games KILL YOU ARE SELF
>>550175590He didn’t cheat. I know his real identity and I can tell you, you didn’t stand a chance.
>>550175717Kek
>>550175717You mean... Magnus himself on our forum...
>>550176095who? is that a speedrunner
He's a god gamer and if he loses, it's because his opponent cheated. Simple as.
>>550177905I haven’t seen an episode of summoning salt on him so he can’t be that big
>>550176801Magnus Magnusson, he has a formidable fide rapid rating of 1973 and there ain't no way someone from on here is going to beat him
>>550179163>stjepan tierLet's face it, probably stronger than Steinitz.

>>550175267lmaooo you're trasshhh, get fucked bitch
>>550186908I wonder what on Earth made him decide to play that opening. Why can't he just stick to one thing?Also, lol @ his time spent on Bc8
>>550186908What exactly did he miss in that position? I don't see a tactic for white, or do u mean he had a tactic in the last move that he didn't play?
>>550188220Yeah, anon worded it weird with the image, Stjepan missed a tactic for himself, not the opponent
>>550188220Ng4
>>550186908This guy is just wasting his life at this point. Does anybody remember he wanted to reach a certain lichess elo before 2026? He is simply not consistent, he doesn't have any plan to improve, he just going through the motions to see if something happens
>>550188220Nxd5, free pawn and discovered attack by blacks queen on whites knight
just got 2000 blitz with the bongcloud
>>550189413maybe opponent has Ne6 there though
>>550189441nice good work i bet you left a lot of people seething lol
>>550189441no one cares you fucking idiot
>>550189580Ya I think I'll see how far I can push it for rapid next.
>>550189626Hey can we relax on the insults I know you hate the guy but you’re getting really annoying.
>>550189413No retard, it’s Ng4.
>>550189815based engineless analyzer
>>550189769I don’t know bro it’s literally one psycho ruining /chess/ if you check the archive he’s always here, all he does is attack people.
>>550189923he'll die eventually lol
>>550189908Yeah but how can it be wrong (if you’re saying the engine disagrees)? The threat is to win a rook, and it’s indefensible. If Qd2 trying to protect the knight and “defend” the threat, still wins the rook. If knight moves, still wins the rook. White is just losing a piece. Nxd5 is not a move
>>550190197Because Ne6
>>550190268Oh
>>550190495So this conversation makes it clear that it wasn't a 1-move tactic like the original poster stated. More subtle because of Ne6 issues, which is why he played Bc8 to prevent that.
>>550191183Yeah probably so
>>550189975I don't really like that we have to wait for him to kill himself so that we have a pleasant general again.
>>550192747dont actually want the guy for the record

https://lichess.org/YYZPQ7VM>>550196857
>>550196857while i wouldnt go so far as to abort against him, he is actually even banned from the tournaments not really part of the 'club'
>>550196857https://lichess.org/NUhhjlwO
>>550197000quit aborting the games and fuck off isnt it your bed time soon pup
>>550197000Yeah because beary (who doesn't play anyway) is a schizo who's obsessed with catmixer.
>>550197000I played him like 5 times today and they were all friendly fun games. The only person who has been a bad sport today is the guy who cried about "cheating" in the Dutch game earlier lol
>>550197278hey buddy this has nothing to do with beary this is about the person aborting games
>>550197405no but beayrt seething is what led to him being banned in the first place because the mods took ghis side
I just think posting challenges is super important part of any team, just post the time controls and thats it, if someone joins or not thats it. Why would we tolerate a guy who has a track record of aborting all challenges from anyone just because what? hes obsessed with catmixer? dude youre the problem fuck off

Who's the Nigel Richards of Chess?
what's the best way of using lichess' study feature?am i doing it right? how do you personally use it?
>>550184964The thing about you is that you agreed to leave /chess/ if Chest proved that his account wasn't closed due to cheating. He did. Yet you're still here. Chest reopened his account recently so you can check again:https://lichess.org/@/seriouschestNo red "This player uses computer assistance" message on his profile.
>>550197572That's absolutely not what happened and you know it, catmixer. Beary/Chest barely browses this general nowadays after some guy stalked him and tried to dox him (was that you btw?). The reason you got banned is because zoombam doesn't like you and zoombam is the creator of the weavers team.
Did catmixer have a melty last night? I went to sleep and wake-up to 6 million of his challenges.
>>550221673It's not because I don't like him, it's because I think he cheats and whenever he starts doing it in the team tournaments, he basically drives the last few participating members out. Although his faggotry itg is tiresome, I would never ban someone based on whether I like him or not
>>550221673>Beary/Chest barely browses this general nowadayshow would you know that?
>>550222669Pretty easy to tell when he posts. He uses that anime girl avatar and he posts his games. Also when he browsed regularly, he would play in the weekend tournaments and Herders vs Weavers tournaments. >>550221981Oh, my mistake. Sorry.

Should we make a team in the Lichess 45/45 league? I know we used to have a league team, maybe we could do it again...
You casuals DO have your board set to 3d, right?
>>550231019I've thought about this too but assumed there would be no interest in such a long tc, I'd definitely play if we can make a team of at least 4 people
>>550231019Nobody wants to be part of this shit board’s team. Everyone here is rude. Kill yourself

>>550232390die pastebin tranny
>>550231019You're randomly assigned to a team in 4545 League anyways.The team we've had before was in the Bundesliga, which is blitz tc. There's also a rapid Bundesliga, but I doubt you'd get much interest. It's tough enough getting anybody to show up for the blitz league. Everybody prefers to discuss namefags and get into autistic slap fights over the exact same topics for the 10,000th time.

>>550235080Yeah, it's kind of weird to me, but the FAQ says they can try to match you with people you request if you aren't the same rating
>>550234330
>>550235449Yes, I saw that post after I sent mine. There's a chance, then. Gonna have to get a classical rating I guess. I could just bang out a couple of 0+40 games and get whatever rating the team needs.

>>550221352That was /tg/ /chess/ sorry.
>>550241524No, there was no specifying which board. It was /chess/ in general. Just admit you’re an awful person schizoing out and accusing everyone of cheating while cheating yourself.

You had the same obsession with 'casual challenges' and then you psychotically came up with some imaginary scoreboard for your record against namefags in the general despite all your opponents being anonymous but you're so smart you can tell who they are with 100 percent accuracy. Then when someone calls you retarded you spazz out and get really angry, trawling the archive, this poster is active between 4 and 12 and plays the french therefore it was him. Then you keep pretending to be new posters every thread so we would get like 3 new posters every thread and each one just so happened to be very interested in your story but no nothing about it. Then when someone tells it, you get really angry and use the archive to argue your case.And then even now, you can't plauy like a normal person. You are so strong and so smart you have to move your king on move 2 every game because otherwise you would be a 2700.
>>550241938Sorry it was on /tg/ written about /chess/ on /tg/.
>>550243792fuck off you stupid faggot, go obsess over something else
>>550243783Sorry you’re stuck here with me, I’ll post some more challenges later when I start drinking again. Do you want to coordinate so you’re they’re to abort them?
>>550243783>>550243792>>550243946>>550243981All me btw.
>>550240993surely reddit also support banning India flag since they are buying oil from Russia
>>550244463Wow big if true. Checked with my lawyer, I’m free to post here as much as you are sorry.
Hikaru’s kid was just born. The future rivalry between Carl-son and Kidkaru is on course.
>>550249242they'll probably just be spoiled rich kids with no real skills.
>>550251293So … like Magnus? (Implying chess isn’t a real skill)
10,000 ChessTempo tactics to build intuition
The Cat has been tracked to Canada. Mixing incoming.
>>550251293Out of curiosity I went to look how many children of GM became GM themselves, as far as I can find it only happened twice:Tahir Vakhidov and Jahongir VakhidovViacheslav Zakhartsov and Vladimir ZakhartsovInteresting that it's lot more common for the son of a lesser master/strong club player to becom a strong GM, could just be because there are way less GM in general, that plays a role for sure but I think there's more to ithttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chess_families
>>550254058That makes sense, an FM or IM would know how to train chess very well, and could instill it into their kid at peak neuroplasticity. Maybe a lot of people with the genetic potential didn't receive the coaching necessary as kids.I bet there are a lot of titled players with title parents too. I know Ben Finegold's son has a title, just not GM
>>550235080It's to make sure each team has roughly the same average rating as all the others. Wouldn't be very competitive if you had one team with 15 GMs on it curbstomping all the rest.
>>550253580I do like booba>>550254490Too bad Tate never got a title like his dad.
>>550243709>no (You)smy genius is wasted on you lot
If you go for Sicilian Dragon, King's Indian and all the other kingside fianchetto castle memes, what do you even do against a kingside pawnstorm, queenside castle and just full offensive? The queenside is so undeveloped that I can't do shit, any counterattack is way too slow. Once I realized this weakness I started to just destroy other people too trying to pull it off and no one really showed a good defense against it. I'm triple digit London chud btw.
>>550254490I'm still going to dream of a shonen style rivalry between the two kids. Hikaru's kid is a boy?
>>550256723You're generally supposed to attack on the kingside in the KID. I guess you mean if they castle queenside, then you can either tyr to pawnstorm on the queenside, break in the center, or still counterattack on the kingside. All are feasible depending on the position and whatnot.
>>550257197not c*tmixer btw, not every cat picture is him avarfagging, just most of them
>>550257197I do like this picture. >>550257514I don't know the last time I posted a cat picture, I miss the guy who was sharing his grey cat and another one. What happened to him?
Thoughts? I'd love to have it for book puzzle practice. Also imagine taking a chick home and then she sees the Epstein set lmao.
>>550257197Oh. Since the kingside bishop got the big fianchetto diagonal I assumed KID attacks on queenside. Gotta read more books. Just kidding, I meant watching more youtube.
>>550243709
>>550257996This is actually epic if its true. I want to see the full set, maybe its just the king and queen pieces that are like that.
>>550258324are these the bishops? at least his king piece looks like a chess piece
Ain't it funny that 1. d4 can lead to both the Drumpfowsky Attack and the Joe Biden London System
>>550258616"The ladies claimed they belonged to a chess club but wouldn’t elaborate on who the president was, the outlet said."Fuck, imagine one of them was a well known player.
If you're a jeet who plays chess and you're reading this, just know I hope you die while you're playing a game, you worthless cheating brown disgusting monkey.
>>550259301I think Dina would have been too young at the time for it to be her. But with Epstein you never know!
>>550259345
>>550258064The fianchettoed bishop affords extra protection to your king position so you can advance your kingside pawns aggressively.
>>550259739that's how i like to play caveman style
>>550259301It's clearly Humpy Koneru.>>550258064This is why people say the KID is an absolutely terrible opening for turboshitters btw. No 1000 is playing actual KID plans after shitting out the first few system moves.
>>550258616Wow these really suck. Its true the ultra rich have no taste. Imagine the quality of board you could get for 5k
>>550260701that kingside pawn push in the KID looks so spoopy, I am too scared to go for it
ACKhttps://lichess.org/XBBwTHKW/
>>550260761It's a power move, the pieces have the faces of actual people that Epstein worked with. Nobody cares about your $5000 madoka magica set.
>>550261087So play the slav.
>doing puzzles>see puzzle from a correspondence game>skip it
do you have a note and a pen nearby or otherwise a notepad software on another tab when you're playing longer gamesis that even allowed
>>550261257I dont know what that is. They look too much like action figures in my opinion but ya I understand its the power flex. I haven't seen the queen piece, imagine it was Ghislaine Maxwell. That would be too much lol
>>550261640apparently in big events youre not allowed to write down notes, which is kinda silly but whatever
>>550261497nah I just abort d4faggots
>>550262152based, but 1... f5 does exist
I don't think this is the way to use the study feature,it's very messy to look at which makes it hard to read
>>550257996Looks like dogshit. Dude was so fucking loaded he could've had a chess set made from the finest wood by the best artisan alive for the same price.
>>550262152Play the Dutch like a real man.
>>550264965I played the stonewall and people made fun of me here.
>>550265042They're faggots, don't listen to them. It's a great opening.
>>550265326I like it too. I think there’s one big meanie in the thread that hates on everyone. Anyway I think stonewall is most unsound version of the Dutch? Which one do you play?
>>550263972yeah "englund gambit" should be a whole study and the chapters should variations like "...3d6" etc to keep it readableto be honest I only ever bothered to do that twice and didn't get much use out of either study, bookmarking someone else?s study or a good youtube video is so much easier
>>550263869>>550264965>can't into KID>just play the accelerated KIDbaka
>>550265650Classical, but I also like the Leningrad a lot. Stonewall is great too though.
So funny how bad gookesh is at playing the board game called CHESS
>>550266165There’s a stupid trap I get once in a while, with a sac on h2. It’s very satisfying to play a brain dead opening and have people fall for it
>>550264757The files have just shown him to be a retarded reditor with bad taste. His art collection was trash of course the pieces would be trash
>>550266119I play the classical because I believe in king safety
>>550264757Personally, I like my chess pieces to have attitude. I am disappointed he didn’t splurge on the knight piece, as is the tradition with chess sets. I hope the FBI sets the pieces up for a picture so we can get a good view of how awful and tacky it looks.
Isn't it nice when your opponent never does anything and gives you infinite time to launch an attack.
what's better for improvement 2 hours of puzzles and 1 hour of rapid or the opposite?
>>550261257>$5000 madoka magica set.Oh shit, where can I get one of these? Asking for myself.
>>550268641Use those three hours to analyze and annotate a master game. Bonus points if it's in an opening you play.
>>550268676>asking for myselfnice try Homura
>>550267718nice filename haha
>>5502686411 hour of rapid, 1 hour of analysis, 1 hour of puzzles.
Anyone playing right now?
>>550266735>expecting a jew to have any taste for aesthetics
>>550273037>>550266735I paintings he commissioned of Bush playing with toy planes and of Bill in a blue dress are pretty based though
I like to attempt to play sound chess as White and dubious gambits as Black.
>>550273816that's cool what are the openings for this?
>>550259223I think it's funnier that there's a virus named Epstein-Barr and Jeff Epstein was hired at the Dalton school while Donald Barr (sci-fi author of juvenile-sex-themed "Space Relations" and father of then-future Attorney General William Barr) was headmaster there, and that William Barr, who was still U.S. Attorney General in 2019, oversaw the federal Bureau of Prisons, which operated the Metropolitan Correctional Center where Jeffrey Epstein died by "suicide" on August 10, 2019.
>>550275647Holy shit is this real?
>>550273985I'm not telling because you'll nitpick and make fun.
>>550275647>Jeffrey Epstein died by "suicide" on August 10, 2019.holy shit if I had to guess I would have said 2 or 3 years ago max, where does time go?
>>550249242it's common for the children of a pro athlete to not play the sport at all. Magnus and Hikaru both know that 99% of chess players make shit money and having to do it for a living drains your happiness and puts you in the social media spotlight. Once the parent has already gotten like $10+ million dollars from their career the children will just be happier free to do something other than chess and make more money passively free from stock dividends and other investments than they'd ever get having to play in chess tournaments.It's likely they randomly dabble with it to shitpost on twitch years later from time to time but focus their life on a more worthy or more fun pursuit (which is in both cases not chess)
>>550277954particularly because chess is hard work. It's not like a movie star where their kid could get millions for having a face vaguely like their dad and being fucking terrible for a week. Terrible children in pro sports simply wash out without ever arriving at the payday.
>>550277336You died in 2018. Your current experience is your brain going into overdrive and generating a massive amount of hallucinatory experiences before it shuts down completely from lack of oxygen.
if you watched the botez leaks, you're literally as bad as epstein because she was underaged in those videos
>>550159706It's not that. He doesn't have janny rights on /vg/. He does on /tg/ and apparently /sp/. Go to /sp/ now and he's made another /chess/ there, which will stay up until it falls off the 10th page. It will not be removed due to being off topic as the previous one -that he didn't make- was. pbt always posts with an Italian flag.
What time format do you guys want for Xmas team tournament? 3+2 blitz?
>>550280869Can you link it?
>>550282857Nice haha like that pic
>>550280869I'm still not sure pbt and the /tg/ janny are the same person even if on paper it would make the most sense and there is some evidence for itThe /tg/ janny HATES e-celebs to a totally deranged degree, like when "billy" tried to resurrect the tg general the janny couldn't stop himself from banning him for posting about dina or some other ewhore despite being against his best interestThe pastebin tranny on the other hand likes chess e-whores, he always post pics of them and has their youtube,twitch and even discords in his pastebin It could be that the pbt is a janny on sp but the crazy tg janny is some else and they just side with each other due to being "coworkers"
>>550283370I thought beary was the tg janny, wasn’t that proved beyond any doubt
>>550282857120+30
>>550280316That video was from last year and she’s fucking Zach Justice (a 30 year old content creator) in it lol. You’re making shit up
>>550283784No it's pbt
>>550285739Beary is the pbt or the pbt is the janny?
>>550283784>wasn’t that proved beyond any doubtNot at all, the only reason some suspected that is that he had originally stayed on tg when we moved to vg but there was never any proofIMO he seems too nice to be the janny and I vaguely recall he eventually moved here because he got banned there
have to work a bit will post challenges later if anyone wants to play
>>550285867>>550286027Karla is the pyt
>>550240993emil sutovsky is the FIDE president no wonder israel was never sanctionedFIDE is a joke

>caring about people who post with names on an anonymous image board
https://lichess.org/lIU7Cn403+2 in a custom position I want to try out
>>550243709Kek that’s a deep cut, well done
>>550243709Why do they use these shitty roll up chess boards that are impossible to get even and flat?It's not like a hard piece of plastic would be any more expensive.
>>550243709>>550256417Yeah it was a good meme and made me laugh. The original copypasta is great, idk if you wrote it but it's hilarious
>>550243709Imagine willingly setting foot on the continent of Africa.
>>550306325>Why do they use these shitty roll up chess boards that are impossible to get even and flat?more portable
>>550306325The mousepad style boards are great. Unroll flat, don't collect dirt and grime off the table, nice soft and squishy felt texture.Hands down, the best portable chess board style.
>>550306325There's a whole charity organization that sends them these shitty roll up boards. I worked somewhere that painted nice looking boards on the picnic tables and that worked out pretty good.
>well, in between moves, when I'm not glancing down your shirt... I am mostly thinking about bending you over like a dog
I'd take her silver fox of a mom out bowling on a date.
>>550314938double team them holy hot dog
>>550315191imagine taking it out of pia's butt and putting it in annas mouth
okay that's enough puzzles for the evening i am very upset about this onehttps://lichess.org/training/nkfUc
>>550315917what did you try? you just have to see youre getting to the queenside first
>>550316174i took the stupid rook
>Magnus on chess.com tries to make his theme look like default lichessLol anyone else notice this?
I’m really obsessed with seeing the whole Epstein set. He had a black guy for the pawns.
>>550316238Did you think it was winning after that? You should calculate out a win for puzzles
>>550263972To me it is fine. You’re not using it to read the notation. You play through the variations and see them on the board.If it’s just for personal use that is.
>>550317023>Epstein setwhat openings did he play?
>>550280316I guess einstein isn't so bad after all.
>>550321647In the article it said he didn’t know how many pieces were supposed to be on a chess board. I doubt he even knew how to en pheasant.
>>550318176shut up
>>550323362try and be nice to lower rated players
>>550321647Loli Attack
I just had this little situation after winning black's rook. Can the black king take the white rook as revenge?After white Ke2, if black king takes either the rook or bishop, the white queen gets there just on time on the h-file to checkmate.
it’s kind of sad when one IP is responsible for 70 posts.
>>550327647and it's sad when he's a namefag and we know exactly who it is
>>550328005who?
>>550328309c*tm*x*r
>>5503283094chan got rid of IP counter a long time ago. Must be talking about his own IP.
I just had the epiphany that your elo corresponds almost exactly to how many moves on average you make before you make an inaccuracy or blunder.100 elo = 1 move500 elo = 5 moves1000 elo = 10 moves2000 elo = 20 moves3000 elo = 30 moves
These 10+ posts where each had nothing but a lichess link seem botted. Someone should look into that.
>>550334642What makes them seem botted?
>>550335579Can you play shogi? It’d be cool to learn.
Thoughts on Aman Hambleton and Eric Hansen? I used to think they were based techno bros, but then I read something on here about Aman voting for some lib fag party and Eric being a legit homo. Any truth to those claims?
4chan got rid of the ip count because threads (like this one) showed 10 IP’s and it was freaking anons out to know they are talking with a bot.
>>550335786They both seem like normal bros I’d be friends with, I played aman on his stream once and got obliterated.
>>550335798I think they got rid of it because changing your IP is so simple it was pointless.
>>550335948Thanks anon, I agree. I really enjoy watching them because they both come across as genuinely normal dudes, which isn't something you can say about a lot of e-celebs these days, especially in chess.
>>550335948>>550336261Also cool that you got to play Aman. Got a link to the game? Would love to see it.
>>550336369It was a long long time ago, he was streaming on twitch and taking random challenges. I was watching his live reaction to how badly I was playing kek
>>550336369Have you ever played anyone well known?
>lost to 2. Qf3 3. Bc4 scholar's mate niggardry when playing the sicilian after 46 moves with -7 advantagefuck this gay earth
>>550336965That sucks, could you post the game? For educational purposes.
>>550334642how about you look into this*spreads ass*
>>550337135>>550315447Only if it’s Pia’s butt
>>550337095nah, i was on incognito mode playing as anonymous against a random person on lichessit's gone, sorry
>>550337370No regrets, I like to put myself in peoples shoes and try to imagine what they were thinking when they blundered.
>>550337527it was a bishop + queen checkmatelost in the middle of my own attack, failed to see that it was way faster
>>550337685It happens. At least it wasn’t a fools mate pattern.
the racism bans are lolrecently
>>550337762I pity the fool that falls for the fools mate.
>>550337995Racism can get you banned here? What if I just genuinely don’t like playing angainst Indians… and Jews.. and blacks… and pretty much anyone that isn’t white.
>>550338202there is one deleted post in the entire thread and it has nothing to do with racism, it's just the latest example of the pastebin tranny projecting, same with the posts about IPs
>>550338772Yeah the sudden posts about IPs and botting are super sus. What’s this guy on about.
>>550336575Kek, that's hilarious.>>550336894Nope, never. My first choice would be Magnus (for obvious reasons), but I wouldn't mind playing either of the brahs. I know they're just e-celeb GMs, but I've learned a lot from watching both of them in the past, so I really appreciate what they do.
>>550339553It was my dream to play Danya one day. Now it will forever remain a dream.
>>550339768:(
he's the autistic janny that makes and bumps the threads on tg and now spany time this general or the lichess team pick up in activity it makes him seethe since his general is so dead so he starts with those kind of lies and "no u"once you are familiar with it it's so transparent it's comical, he makes 70% of posts on tg so he says someone does it here, he bans people over nothing there so he says people get banned here etc>tl drliteral autistic screeching ignore it
>>550340124THIS JUST LIKE MY HECKIN STARWARSERINO
Did anyone else see that last reply get deleted? Was that the janny the same anon who got his reply deleted was talking about?
>>550340221Never mind, my browser was just bugging.
>>550340221no it was just me fucking up, deleting it to repost then fucking up again lol>tldrI'm literally retarded ignore it
>>550335728https://lishogi.org/learn
>>550340828Can we start a team?
>>550340124This is how I choose to remember him. He was always so transparent and honest. And he had a warm glow around him like an aura. Not to mention he was spooky good at blitz.
I think it’s super handy and crucial to the culture to have an archive… Come along everyone, let’s go back to /tg/
>>550343475
>>550343475every board has an archivehttps://arch.b4k.dev/vg/search/subject/chess/
>>550344338Oh
God I wish I was born as some rich businessman's useless son so I could just play chess all day without a care in the world. Being in the middle of a game is genuinely the only time I forget about all my problems. Besides working out, it's the only thing that makes me feel alive.
>>550343475>>550344429You can't be serious
>>550335786they're both left leaning. eric isn't gay but his brother is (he's talked about it on stream and his brother has joined the streams too) and he loves his brother so he's obviously not going to vote for right wingers or any party that wants his brother dead or imprisoned.
