I fucking love Chess. Had some great games with Ine last year, in her garden and on her trampoline.

 

I haven't got time to play at the moment though. Things are very busy and I'm barely finding time to even come on here. After the next few weeks, I could probably be able to give a tournament a go, although I bet I would suck arse compared to proper Chess demons.

Don't forget me! Seriously, don't! I haven't played chess with a worthwhile opponent in years!

 

That said, do we really have to create an account for this Yahoo Chess thingamajig?

I don't know another option. Facebook's chess.com account is pretty good. You can just join the chess.com website if you wish? If you can find a decent chess game client then go ahead :) I'm sure there's something out there.

You could go down the insane route and have like...Chess meet-ups across the country. Nay, Europe.

 

Yahoo will be fine.

 

This thread reminds me that I need to move my chess sets into my new place. I have a lovely Marble Set from Saudi Arabia. Smells like victory.

It's not a problem, really. I'll create an account and use it solely for this(these) tournament(s)

P.S.: I may say "Roque", instead of "Castling".

 

Or "Horse" instead of "Knight"

Or "Tower" instead of "Rook"

 

I like PT names better, really. I'll try to adapt, but if I end up using any of the above by accident, now you know.

Well I'm expecting to come dead last in this lol. I haven't played in a long time but when I did used to play with my dad it would never be serious. I don't even think more than 1 move ahead.

 

But fun is fun

11 playahs! I'm online all night. if anyone wants a game on facebook/yahoo then post in here/pm me and consider it a practice :) I can draw up a tournament, but it would mean 4 people would have to play 4 rounds instead of 3. Unless we can get 5 more people!

PT names?

 

Having played chess since I was tiny I what all of their names actually are but I've always called them as follows because I didn't used to know their names:

 

Knight = Horse

Rook = Castle

Bishop = Diagonal thing

Eenuh; the piece names confused me for ages :) Castle/rook is the only one with duality issues, and the knight/horse... well if you refer to it as a horse then everyone knows which piece you mean!

 

I'm going to consider the current players to be;
