Add me you two!! SomeDumbTrucker

I'm pretty sure I just played my own immortal game.
I DON'T THINK I WILL EVER TOP THIS GAME. Computer said it was flawless with no inaccuracies, mistakes, or blunders... I could have captured his queen with my knight... But my spider senses were tingling... And the computer agrees it was not a mistake to not capture the queen... And I didn't check mate him for about 10 moves... And the king walk is just epic. And the computer said I played perfectly... And the computer thinks 30 moves deep..


At this point I wouldn't mind if this topic got closed, I'm not asking it to though. But I'm pretty sure I'm going to go out on this note here, I've bumped it enough to get the attention I think I need. And I'm going back to silence. You guys need to send me a friend's request in game. SomeDumbTrucker.

Finally got around to adding a new volume to my Caro-Kann Mega Tutorial Vol 9 in the flesh.

Link to playlist with all volumes in order. This is a work in progress probably will be 20 chapters in all, with around 4 hours of material. (~1 Hr 50 Min currently)

I started up a new series, Even if you're not that good at chess you can definitely join in on these. Climbing the rated chess puzzles on chess . com. I've already made four videos, check them out here's the first one.

Does being good at chess make it easy to get a harem of cute girls? :wub:

All depends on your confidence level. I don't see any correlation. But I would assume if you come off as your world revolves around chess, that's going to be a major turnoff. I'm gangster with it though, so the ladies actually do like it. But I'm never the one to bring it up.

I used to be in a chess club in HS but I never got any good. Haven't really tried to play in 15 years or so haha. I play a mean game of checkers though :ph34r:
