I don't think our Chess game will last an hour, I played a few games of it when I first got the collection and typically, the games were decided within a few moves, for all the variations in Chess, a lot of games seem to go a similar way once you get past the opening four moves or so, I've found. I'm not even seriously into Chess, I just used to play it a little bit when I was younger, it'll be great to play a game with you though. Awesome. Thanks for making it work I've played a few games of chess in my life but it was pretty much just: "Ok, I know how each piece can move...here we go" Gonna be an interesting one, then 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best keep it to 7pm (UK time) less than four hours from now, that seems like a good time for a game of Chess, and gives enough of a buffer before Mario Kart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you mind hosting again? As always, I fear my WiFi may be a little too shabby to host a game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.C.G Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) Well, that was the most interesting game of Chess I've played in a long time. Good game @drahkon you played well. Chalk up another win for drahkon please. Edited September 24, 2020 by S.C.G 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Risky but it worked out just fine Back in school (when I played my only games of chess) I was a defensive player and...I usually lost Great game from you, too. You made it a difficult for me to go through with my tactics. I was scared at times that you'd also start to really go on the offensive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen-i Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 (edited) Good match there, @viceview51 Took a good 25 minutes. It got really tense near the end! For the others, I won. Edited October 2, 2020 by Glen-i 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen-i Posted October 8, 2020 Author Share Posted October 8, 2020 Right, week delay, but I'm sure you guys don't mind. Not like you had a choice. Here's the table. Next set of games will be up later tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen-i Posted October 8, 2020 Author Share Posted October 8, 2020 Chess is a game of skill and strategy, but not all of the games in this collection are as dependant on the player's wits. Some games err more on the luck side of things and this next set of games aims to get these over and done with. It's... Oh no! Luck based Minigames! Might as well just play Merry Go Chomp 9 times... This week's games: War, Takoyaki, Pig's Tail Each game will be played 3 times. Bracketing: @Glen-i VS @viceview51 @drahkon VS @S.C.G War Rules: N/ATakoyaki Rules: First Move - Random Joker - OnPig's Tail Rules: First Move - Random Penalty Cards - Forbidden 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
