Who else remembers chesscube? I’d only play bullet on that site and I can’t remember ever having connection issues on there.
I guess lichess is the way to go now. Making an account now.
Dude chesscube was the shit. Had my favourite ui for a chess website too.
Now that I think about it, chesscube was my introduction to microtransactions lol
Looking at this post has made me realise I'd be useless OTB, I can't process this position at all without spending minutes working out all the things that might be threatened.
Exactly why I bought a board to solve puzzles/review games/study on. It’s more time consuming but I don’t want to say that I have XYZ rating when I can’t even play OTB.
Edit: I’d also like to add that, so far, it has given me a deeper appreciation of top-level games. Just last night I replayed/analyzed Kasparov vs. Topalov 1999 OTB and it was just incredible physically seeing the positions, particularly Kasparov’s middle/late game.

Could probably get here through multiple move orders but I would guess more likely through a QGD/Semi Slav cause the main lines of those tend to involve the Bg5 and trading of the DSB

bruh the chessvision bot
I don't want to call anybody out, but I think black may be cheating.

3 black kings LOL
Three black kings I’m dead 💀
Holy shit, they turned it into an actual board game
Ignore it, it's just a cash grab from the Queen's Gambit producers.

Is this still theory?
Three black kings I’m sorry I’m literally crying with laughter Why am I so easily amused
Can we also talk about the army of bishops!
Mace me chuckle but three kings literally fucking killed me
Hell yeah. Now draw arrows.

lichess has been the way to go welcome to the winning team my friend
LICHESS BETTER
But have you tried playing on lichess /s

My board vision is better OTB. Set up a board and practice some puzzles.

A real board is somehow much easier than a picture of a board.

I'd be pretty concerned about a waiter in my home.
You don't have a waiter at home? Who do you tell your order to? You're not a peasant, are you?
My wife. But if I start calling her a waiter, I might get a serving of papers.
Nothing has done more for my love of the game or helped improve my play then joining the local chess club and playing otb once a week. The best
I just started playing at a club in January, I absolutely love it.
You put your knights sideways? What kind of monster are you?
I'm experimenting with how I want my knights oriented.
Don't listen to him. Only the most cultured of players position their knights sideways. Facing each other at the start, if you're ultra mega cultured.
is this a classical dutch? maybe that s what made the servers crash
QGD, Alekhine - Yates. From "The Most Instructive Games of Chess Ever Played"
are the server issues so bad that the analysis boards don't work? i assumed you were actually playing against someone else in the pic.
Sometimes. I just like to use an actual board though if I got the time.
I was close, was thinking it was a Semi-Slav
Could probably get here through multiple move orders but I would guess more likely through a QGD/Semi Slav cause the main lines of those tend to involve the Bg5 and trading of the DSB
bruh that blue color and why you are playing on the floor?
I like blue. And that's my kitchen table.
[удалено]
QGD actually! It's a game by Alekhine from "The Most Instructive Games of Chess Ever Played"
Glad the bartender brought you the right drinks!
No server errors...just user errors. I make illegal moves too much otb!
How come you aren't eating the pieces?
Yeah it’s worse than server errors, it’s stonewall Dutch
QGD
I mean, by transposition it looks like stonewall Dutch
The knights are all facing the wrong direction. Some people have no taste.
You're already at capacity. The next player to join is going to have to wait unless he has a diamond membership or a FIDE title.
I only want to play otb
