Chess

[eli_gone_crazy]

So, Pix and I were goofing off. >_> and I like chess, so I bugged him into playing a game with me. and we found a server, so maybe you guys want to play? (be forewarned, I am horrible)
http://www.gameroom2000.com/multiplayer-games/chess.htm

It has a guest option so there is no need to register. ^_^

EDIT:
So, someone... I dunno who at the moment, but some awesome person found this http://multiplayerchess.com/

^^ this is a better option. the only problem is that the timer is set for only 3, 5, and 10 minute intervals. and free play.

I like to play chess, but I'm awful at it. I'll try to go there asap.

Welp, I asked once if somebody was up for a match... Nobody answered... Guess you weren't there. I'm up for it

[Sicon112]

I've already said I may drop by, but I've also already said that I have only played the game very rarely and am awful at it, so there is that. I'm sure I could get better with practice, but I don't really have the time to play it a lot.

Well, credits to Blur for linking me to that website.
I'm not sure if I should register though... But we can always coordinate the games in the chatroom, just PM someone with the room name and you guest number, like Eli and I have done. ^_^

Mmm, that irony tastes lovely.

I am also a horrible chess player, but if someone wants a match, let me know via PM or chat.

What he said.

[JackAlsworth]

I used to be decent, but then I took an arrow to the kn*BLAM*

...er, I mean, I stopped playing for a number of years. Always willing to pick up a game and get slaughtered by one of you guys, though.

>_>

<_<

I wanna play a round with you when I get back to Singapore, other half! Im terribad too

[Pixelmage]

On that note, if anyone can play Shogi, CONTACT ME AT ONCE.

What's Shogi?

[Pixelmage]

Facepalm aside...

Japanese Chess.
Get here to learn how to play it.

[Endless Sea]

I used to know how to play Go, but I've completely forgotten.

[RotavatoR]

Anyone up for a game? If I don't practice I'll never defeat gramps...

It's been a while, but it'd be fun to start playing chess against you guys again.

Sure, I'm up for it. How's saturday for you? Need a good time though :/

[narrativedilettante]

I'm not sure about next Saturday. I might be driving for most of the day. I'll let you know.

[RotavatoR]

That was a fun match. I overlooked a move so I gave up, which is a shame

Anyone else up for a game?

[IslaKariese]

I would, but you'd beat me in ten seconds flat. I have no eye for strategy, not to mention all the intricacies of the game itself. But hey, if you know any good books on the topic, I'd read up an get back to ya!

I've never read a chess book in my life. I've mostly learnt it by playing. Seems a lot less boring to me

Also I don't have much of a strategy either, especially not at the first half of the game. Wanna try sometime?

I wouldn't be much of a challenge. And how do you go about playing chess with an opponent over the internet anyway? Is there a site you're using?

[narrativedilettante]

http://en.lichess.org/ lets you start a game, and send a link to whomever you want to play with.

I'm not expecting a challenge And yeah, what Narra said. Eli also linked to something at the start of the topic

Winning an arm wrestling match against a two-year-old is nothing to brag about. Same logic applies to winning a chess game against me.

But if you wanna play anyway, I guess I'm game. When do you wanna do this?

Speak for yourself Noodle arms over here.

When do you wanna do this?

Hrm let's see... How's saturday, about noon your time? Should be 8-ish for me.
