Today I created ten exercises from the last Blunder Tuesday Tourney. I played the Bongcloud defence and the Fried Fox defence (🩷🌈 UwU FOXEEEEEES 🦊 🦊 🦊 🦊✨✨🌈🩷). By using these openings and emojis, I was able to get a better middlegame and a winning endgame.

These exercises for all you care could be tactical or positional. I will not give you any hints, even if you threaten to vote me out in mafia. The solution can be a move which wins the game or saves the game, or perhaps it just wins back some material. Nah, it's probably just some move that does nothing but keeps up the fight.

I suggest you give yourself around half a day to solve the ten exercises. If you can, I recommend that you setup the position on your plasma core chess board.

1. Pawn Push-ups

2. Admiral Missed it

3. Keep Me in Check

4. Center Control is Overrated

5. Never Gonna Pin You Down

6. Solving is Also Overrated

7. It Might as Well be a Blunder

8. Brakes Failed?

9. Kings Can Control the Center too i guess

The last puzzle for today. 10. Were These Puzzles Really That Bad?
