I've always been a proponent of Queen Gambit.
Oh and when I was in my high school's Chess Club our motto was "When in doubt, push a pawn."

Taking a break from this next game in favor of the few Yahoo ones I played recently. Look forward to watching it, if anyone takes it up.
white's turn ->
Chess is one of those games that anyone who knows how to play it thinks they're good at it, a lot like poker.
Fascinating jord.
You're welcome to make a move.

No it's just something I've noticed and since this is the only chess thread I've ever seen in recent posts I figured I'd just say it here.
I'm poor at chess and mediocre at poker, it's just an observation.

mediocre at poker should be a verse in a rap.
I flow far from mediocre. And if we talking cards I will fold him with the poker.jord wrote:

I'll get back to you at the end of the day.
Unless someone else wants to take over before then.
You couldn't be more wrong. It's been my experience that chess players are usually fairly humble about their skills. In Starcraft terms, I'd be silver. Won't stop us from big talk before a game, though.jord wrote:

ig, jord. Make a move.
No one is going to hold it against you if you make a bad move and I'll hate to have a game between just two people.

oh didnt know we were playing. im in
its not letting me move them
You have to click on it and then click on where to move it.
Scratch that one the left board you can use the pieces to fill in the board. on the right board you only move one piece at a time until. Since it's early in the game I would use the right board.
You have to click on it first and than lick on where to move it.

No offense but going to school with the national jr champion (at the time) kind of puts ones chess skills into perspective.jord wrote:

I'll play you at total war. That's another one, everything thinks they're the best strategist on that game too.Macbeth wrote:

let's play online risk
Not really. I don't hear a lot of gamers (board, computer or otherwise) thrusting their mad chess skills into other people's faces. It's a damn humbling game.jord wrote:
