charlie comes across as a wee bit arrogant,I dont believe there is any 2100
player who would regard a 1905 opponent as a gimme. |

I take it you don't play. |
|
By:
To be fair I'd would consider a 1905 as a gimme up to 7 pints, 10 I'd have to think.

Please don't get me wrong I'm not a very good chess player (I don't have a title), I'm ok. I know a bit of stuff and I'm willing to help people.

do you have to call "check" when playing? I beat a mate the other day and didnt call check. But surely if he was any good
he would have noticed? I'm useless btw and just got lucky |
|
By:
i should say i didnt call check in time because he was check mating me and rushed his move
|
|
By:
You don't have to say check.

Thought I'd try Computer Level 3!
Played 1, Lost 1!  |
|
By:
Not sure enjoying it is the right expression..I would describe it as the FOBT (Crack cocaine) of the chess world. Just been literally playing it for 3 days straight against 11 opponents from around the world at the same time..just got beat by a rude Iraqi in a grudge match..fuming.
|
|
By:
give him a re match and wallop him lol |
|
By:
least our games were courteous
|
|
By:
Blocked him and his Algerian mate who was also rude and also beat me
 I'm sure the Union flag gives them an incentive. I've got you as a friend on there but it doesn't give an option to send a message. I'm down to 5 games at once now so need to finish those and back in work now for 4 days so hopefully have rematch next week when I'm off again |
|
By:

|
|
By:
just had a stalemate in level 4, and i had 2 queens 2 rooks
and i always forget about that the opposition cannot put himself into checkmate , he only had king and 4 pawns and i blew it |
|
By:

|
|
By:
I'm pleased that you all seem to be enjoying it. It is addictive, the more you know the more you want to know. Good luck to all of you.

played giggitygiggity twice online, won them both, not accepting game requests now.
Think he is trying to get more practice and his rating higher, which becomes addictive. |
