I used to play at redhotpawn. I don't play much standard chess any more but I still play chess variants at brainking.com.

I used to play hordes of chess, although it got too repetitive for my taste. And there's only so many moves I can look ahead when I'm drunk.

Argh, there are no Brazilians skilled in Chess... at least I dont know one... Me and my friends cant defeat a 400k program in the easiest mode

I will live in Russia for some years, then we can talk about this again :twisted:

I like playing Chess but am v.v.v. bad at it. My form tutor at school though is a big chess player (his rating is something like 150 for those of you who understand those) and some of his enthusiasm is rubbing off, I'm actually finding that some of it can be really facsinating like the other week he showed a group of us this opening called 'two knights tango' and I found I was really into it. Anyway this is all a bit pointless but jst wanna post something as I'm new to this site (and can't be bothered to do my Economics homework).

I used to play a whole lot of chess. I don't know why I haven't been playing it lately..probably too lazy.

I like chess, but no matter what I do, I can't seem to get any better...

chess rules!

I haven't played chess in a long time...Plus most of my friends are dumb :twisted:

The only one who can play is beating me something like 18 games to 10 :evil:

He's got a drinking chess board, where the pieces are double shot glasses, so when you take a piece the other player has to down the shot.

Has anyone played cosmic chess? You only get 6 pieces & you can have up to 4 player. You've got to try either take the others out or reach the moon in the centre of the board...

I am working on it, but i havent had time to do much lately, take a look - click on the link in my sig.
(the link takes you to the first post so click on the "more current" link (at the top of that post) and it will show what i have done so far.)
The concept is also explained in my first post, so read that too.

I cant figure out whether rook was joking or just stupid..

Cramill, I still think your chess map needs more of the essence of playing chess while playing risk involved in it.

Well, if you or anyone else can come up with a good way of how to do that, I may consider it, but I like it how it is.

Do you play chess?
