Wesley was right about the Muslims.
if they released the draw numbers for 2500+ chess professional chess would be dead overnight

I pre-moved that comment
Rematch denying is weak sauceI block every opponent
>>569079598More likely someone will cheat in the rematch if they lost the first game. In anon games it’s almost 100 percent your opponent will cheat in the rematch
I sure hope he gets his Lego chess set back
>>569084547Atp im hoping there's civil suits against those Mormon cops
>>569084725He did kinda push it with the “harassing” and then they all decided it was a good idea to talk to the cops without a lawyer. I hope he didn’t open himself up to anything criminal. Those Mormons don’t fuck around
>>569085210I’m just saying he gave them free ammunition to use against him, not that I think what he did actually legally constituted harassment/stalking.
I'm going to chess club
I kinda prefer the 2008 Lego chess set that had minifigs as the pieces. It captures the spirit of Lego better imo. Unfortunately, it’s a discontinued product and appears to be priced at 6000 euros online. https://brickset.com/sets/852293-1/Castle-Giant-Chess-Set
>>569080443cheatmixer, I...
>>569090407What is White smoking?
It wouldn’t be super practical for playing but dam those minifigs look cool. Way nicer than the 70 dollar set posted in the previous thread.
>>569090904I like whites position here
>>569090619Why so serious?
>>569090407Damn gotta steal that from an old person

>>569095708slash are, slash websites that i felkl for xdDC:\Windows\System32\drivers\et
>>569090407that is a damn fine chess set. I normally hate figurative sets like this (Simpsons set, ugh), but this is charming. I like the choices for each piece, that it is kingdom vs. monsters, and that it has extra castle/dungeon decorations along the sides and at the corners.
I don't like how close to cracking top 10 hans is

>>569097002what was removed?

What was wrong with those posts I wonder? Seems like normal /chess/ banter. It’s what Bobby would have liked to see.

is there really no other anonymous chess space on the internet which is not dead besides this place?

good morning frens
>>569121862How are you fren
>>569122109i am well. just need to get past the frustration associated with losing games and failing puzzles. it makes it difficult to absorb new information and improve habits.
>>569122252Have you tried memorizing openings?
What happened to anon with the 2300 dad?
>>569122370no I've been recommended otherwise. my tactics are what kill me. but failing tactics puzzles its very easy to just see the answer and say "well I just didn't see that/consider that/keep calculating" and want to move on or see you could have saved a position had you considered a move and not change anything because of that which might help you in the future.but i did recently find myself out of theory and uncomfortable because of it, but its not the main problem with my play. my knowledge of the openings i play usually is enough to suffice. analyzing my games helped me when i was worse so i think i should do that more. i plan on getting a chess book from the library soon, not sure if i will study it enough to get much out of it though. here's to hoping. i do want to get competent enough at this game to feel like I'm not making simple mistakes. even though that probably will never come. how are you?
>>569123129I think you should wait for the tactics, memorize openings until you’re around 2k lichess
>>569123648oh well then I'll just keep doing tactics then im already there
>>569124346Do the opposite of what you’re doing
>>569125549why? what did you do to improve when you were weaker?
>>569096473Doesn't matter how close he is. He's destined to forever be a Duda tier shitter except that Duda won the world cup and Niemand won't win shit.
You can remove my post and ban me again you dirty janny, but you can't remove the idea. FISCHER WAS RIGHT ABOUT THE JEWS.
>>569133206Fischer was right about the Jews
>>569123129Maybe just take a break. I burned myself out, couldn't complete any tactics puzzles, I had to quit playing for a couple months
>>569113272Yeah, I've noticed this. It's either full of kids, Indians, Redditors, or trannies. I joined a few discords and they were all kids or people with trans flags on everything. Reddit is full of reddiors and especially Indians. The Lichess and Chesscum forums are full of the dumbest people you could imagine, and a lot of ESL jeets. I wish there was a place where you could chat about chess with normal white adults with a tiny bit of moderation to ward off all the schizos we have here. r/tournamentchess comes close, but it's more for technical analysis than general chat
>>569145517>place where you could chat about chess with normal white adults with a tiny bit of moderationThis was almost every online community before jeets gained internet access. Now there are none.
>>569145517Have you tried /tg/?
>>569145517>>569148426 (Me)I had the same experience when trying out other online spaces btw.>DiscordTerminally online freaks and zippertits.>ForumsThird world monkeys from the most obscure African/Asian countries.>RedditPlebbitors and streetshitters.

>>569149862No.
>>569149346It's even more schizoid and dead than this one and actively hurts the number of people in this general

>>569126373I played with myself every night before bed (sometimes in the morning too)
>>569166671E4, e5, nf3, nc6, bb5
>>569166761>Umm divvy? I use that to pee?
>>569166761bitch, you got some STANK on you fr
>>569166818isn't it better to test yourself against actual opponents though? they are what will introduce an element of what you might not already consider into the game.
>>569167546Learn to play with yourself, then you’ll be better at playing with others. I don’t recommend using machines.
>>569168295i guess so. you know I've always wanted to get to know and play with someone in real life. it's not the same when it's pixels on a screen. it's almost like playing with myself. and you know what people say about playing with yourself too much. it fries your brain, bullet match after bullet match. some people do it so much they can hardly play a game in over the board. they can only respond to input when it comes from the screen. i think I'm going to find one person and only play with them forever though. that way the games are more meaningful
>>569169984Mental illness, no strong player or coach recommends this. You need a vast quantity of new patterns injected into your brain to get good at chess. Your method fails at that so it won't work
>>569171035all you do is play with yourself at your screen every night, why should I care what you think? it's not moral to play with randoms who you will never meet again. you patzer. i bet you play hypermoderns
>>569171035Ignore the tagged post; it’s clearly from a guy incapable of getting up and motivated to play with anyone, let alone himself.
>>569169984>some people do it so much they can hardly play a game in over the board.I'm in the opposite camp. I had so much fun playing OTB over the years that I can hardly ever make myself play online now. The only reason I do it is because I can't play OTB every day.
>>569175065Over the bed will always be better
>>569175065How do you analyze though? I'm 1800s chesscum and I can't even remember a 10 min game well enough to go over it after, maybe only a critical position at the end
Alua ideal wife minimum 5 children

>>569178008shame about her lack of tits tho
>>569178008I’d like to play OTB with her if you know what I mean ;-)
>>569178241imagine aluas face on bibisaras body
>>569177465You'd be surprised how much more you remember when you play OTB. I also can't remember my online games once they're over, but for some reason I can recall a lot when playing OTB. Analyzing with other people in person is way more fun too. You learn so much when you get to hear their thought process, especially if they're stronger than you.
>>569178227C5
>>5691794822. c3
>>569179449Samefagging, but please give your local club a chance if you haven't yet anon. I promise chess is way more fun when you get together with other people you know and play it live. Even the blunders are fun when you get to laugh them off. Online you just lose your queen to some smelly brown kid from Mumbai and shake your head in disbelief as he spams crying laughing emojis. Where's the fun in that?
