About Me:

Hi, I'm Knightly, and I'm strong, fearless, and ready to take on any challenge! :)

Me at a chessboard

Chess is my greatest hobby, and I never turn down an opportunity to play face-to-face. I say chess is my greatest hobby because I have a few others as well. Along with chess, I also like to play business simulation games, make movies, create web pages, make CG animations, fly airplanes, go to the races, play with my dog, and eat Reese's Peanut Butter Cups!

I like chess, because it's like a super cool brain training tool! I like to keep my mind sharp for math class, but it doesn't seem to be working! I stink at math! But chess really has helped in my life. I've seen a significant rise in my I.Q. since taking up chess. I've been improving at a rapid rate, and look forward to being a really good player one day. My grandfather plays a strong game of chess, and we play quite regularly.

I play chess every day, and try to learn something from every game. I have accounts on several other chess sites, but Chess.com is by far the best, and I look forward to being here a very long time!

I also love to design and build 3D models. Visit my webpage called "3D Chess Sets" to see some of my work, and download chess related models, free.

The Facts of Life

Submitted by Knightly on Jul 2, 2009 11:13pm.

  If chess is life, like Bobby told us, than we can attempt to apply the facts of our lives to the chess board. Things that govern our daily lives will also appear in chess, and allow us to either greatly succeed, or dismally fail, depending on how ...Read more »
