Hello everyone, ever had this brilliant game where you sacrificed your queen for a nice checkmate? Or when you actually pulled off a smothered mate, or a greek gift sacrifice that works? And then you remembered that you already used your free game review for the day (if you're just an ordinary member not diamond). Well, we've all been there. So I thought that since some of us have diamond for one reason or another, why not share this functionality? Just post the link of the game in the comments down below, and we'll review it for you! I currently have 1 week of diamond left, so I'll do it for this week. I can ensure your game will be reviewed in 24 hours¹. Just post the link below and it's reviewed!  ¹:After my diamond expires, well, either someone else has to do it or @Ale_Miranda have to gift me premium so I could continue to provide this service but anyways XD.

For white I like to play the Bishop Opening and Queen Gambit Accepted, for black I play Caro-Kann Defense and Queen's Gambit Declined would you recommend these to a beginner or why not?

Hi everyone, improvement forums are back! This time, this forum is dedicated to beginners at chess, specifically those who has a rapid rating lower than 500. At this level, I suggest you to not play traps or gambits and play Italian instead. Make sure not to hang pieces and capture opponent's hanging pieces and you're all set to cross 500! Feel free to post any suggestions for 500 and below players down below!  Also, for those who don't know, we have a game review service going on here:  https://www.chess.com/clubs/forum/view/game-review-service Could be a major tool for those who don't already have membership (which is most people). Alr have fun guys!

What's the popular anime waifu that you can't help but hate, fear, or despise? I bet there's a ton, but you're afraid to say it xD. You can feel safe to say all the hatred here, and you're not going to be lynched in the comments as in Reddit. (P.S: Only female characters allowed, if y'all want I can make an identical husbando forum.) For me, it's Kaguya Shinomiya. I'm similar to Ishigami is multiple ways and same for my view of Shinomiya. Share yours down below and have fun!

I'm really into historical fiction, and I remember watching an anime about Princess Diana's life. I had no idea who she was at the time. I just saw it listed as 'historical' on my anime list and I decided to watch it. Months later, talking with an ex, she mentioned something from her history class that reminded me of the anime, so I showed it to her. We were both surprised that Diana had an anime, apparently made because she was visiting Japan and was popular back then lol

I am current studying games of "My 60 memorable games" and one thing I want to say is that the analysis in many places is inaccurate. I just want to ask, is there any newer editions where we have a modern GM's analysis instead of the one Fischer gave? Or atleast any YT series where any modern titled player analyses all 60 games

I have strong opening setup for beginners and early-intermediates that is not liked much by engines but at the level I mentioned is fire. It is for black, and I myself had a good score with it. It actually is a setup, or a system Even if in many position white can take some slight advantage that would need strong positional understanding that at lower levels doesn't even matter. Also from personal experience I had a good winning percentage

Hello! I just uploaded a video in which white obliterates black's Slav defense with knight sac already in the 9th move! And good luck with the games!

10 topic, y'all choose the topic (determined by the most upvoted) and y'all try to guess, one topic have 10 tries. Everyone is counted collectively, so try to coordinate so you can guess it xD. For example: Topic: Favorite anime. Either 10 people each guess 1, or one person guess 10 or any distribution you like, I don't care xD.  Crazy, illegal, inappropriate, or non-guessable (such as my face, although a certain aspect of it is guessable) will not be accepted as a topic. Now start xD for those of you who want to know more about me.

We have finally gathered enough people, so let's goo! Firstly, a few things: Rules: No inappropriate or explicit content  All profanity must either be replaced with an euphemism or censored (eg using the characters @ for a, $ for s, ! for i, etc). Damn, crap, and non profane exclamations such as OMG, jesus christ etc may be written as is. Don't harass, mock or belittle anyone else, this is not a rap battle or diss competition.  Do not plagiarize other people's works, if there is evidence of plagiarism, your song will be deleted.  Do not use AI!! Same as plagiarism, if enough people think your song is the work of AI, it will be removed (details later).  Links are not allowed. See Participation section for more details.  Participation: Everyone can share their songs in this forum, there are no requirements. Please distinguish between a song, poem, rap, and spoken verse. Only the first one is suitable for this forum. You can share your songs one of two ways: Post your lyrics as text in the comment, or if you're a professional, embed the Youtube video in the comment. Links, downloads, or other formats are not allowed.  Please try to format your songs as best you can, with line endings, punctuation or other distinguishable delimiter.  Name your song!! This is important, creative artists have to give their masterpieces a name lol. Only post your songs in the comments. Please don't just say random things, troll, post memes, or comment on other people's poems. All non participation comments will be deleted. As for how to give feedback, more on that later. Voting (Feedback): Use the 👍 thumbs up emoji reaction to upvote a song. At the end of this contest, the most upvoted song wins! Use the 👎 thumbs down emoji reaction to downvote a song. Don't randomly downvote other people's works, only do so if they either violate the rules above, or are of extremely subpar quality (yes this is subjective but I think most people won't unintentionally produce a song that most people think is extremely bad xD). Use the 🤔 suspicious emoji reaction to indicate you believe the song is written by AI. If enough people put this emoji on a single song, and if I also think it is AI generated, it will be removed.  Use the 🤦 facepalm emoji reaction to indicate you believe the song is plagiarized. If enough people put this emoji, or if I can find an exact source of the allegedly plagiarized song, it will be removed.  All other emoji reactions are ignored and will not have any effect on the songs or the competition.  Winning: This contest will go for 10 weeks, alternatively after more than 100 people posted a unique song. The winner is the most 👍 upvoted song of all.  The winner will get an announcement declaring their victory, with the song and their name in the announcement.  They may also get other rewards, but this is not yet decided and requires the owner's approval.  They will certainly be referred to as Master Song Writer!! Hopefully you have read this far, and if so, have fun!! Btw if anyone have any questions, please dm me instead of posting in this forum. Again, this forum is song exclusive zone!
