The SC chess set thread got me to thinking.
I love chess and I love SC. So I have to ponder if other SC players like chess too!
DO any of you play? If so you should make a (free) account on redhotpawn.com and play with me! Either way i would love to ask some seemingly simple questions about specific openings etc if anyone here is good at chess.
Poll attached for no reason whatsoever :D
I love chess! :D
I used to play it with my dad when I was little, but not so much anymore, so I'm not that great, especially with openings. I also have trouble actually giving a checkmate when I've all but won the game. :P
My account is Gradius. :)
I used to play some chess among other things at lunch randomly in HS when I didn't feel like going outside.
The thing is I didn't really want to "learn" it since then my friends who were most defienty not going to take the time wouldn't be fun to play with anymore ;d
So i've played a bunch but prbly still considered pretty bad. Sadly since those times are over I don't really have anyone to play with anymore and I largely prefer playing in person ( same with poker)
rarely play, although I know how.
As a child I came first in a Chess tournament, beating people 4X my age. But I haven’t played in years...
I like chess, but i hardly play it, unless i have a lot of free time in my hands. I specially like it's non-randomness, something that cannot be said about most games.
Same as Zabimaru, I came 2nd in the county tournament when I was 14. But have played less often since. I should pick it up again one of these days. :D
I play chess regularly online, and have glass chess sets both at home and at the office.
I think we should get a group together for tempest one night for the shinanigans of fun.
I'd be game. I think you should also accept my challenge request so I can redeem myself.Quote:
