We are playing the Hawaii Chess Federation in a Team Match Championship League (TMCL) contest (U1800). There are 30 players per side! Here are some highlights from this match: Ahmet (@adogan-70) found a nice queen sac in this position: Also @Cringenerd47 did some great sniping in both of his games:   Congrats also to @Ravi64chess for sweeping his opponent. @Ellias2013 made a great discovered attack to win the queen: @Ready_for_Challenges swept his opponent too and the game below was won with a pawn fork: This page will be updated as the match progresses.

I'm going to highlight some great wins by those who swept their opponent in the important TMCL match against Adelaide: https://www.chess.com/club/matches/1675699 First, check out our admin Jack with this beautiful checkmate after 69 moves (https://www.chess.com/game/daily/706496399 ) We all know Reznor is a great King of the Hill player. His opponent must have thought he was playing KOTH. Look at this checkmate near the hill (https://www.chess.com/game/daily/706496383):Check out Tavovsky playing against one of the Botez sisters on their alt account (https://www.chess.com/game/daily/706496447) Different game, similar 'fossilization' (https://www.chess.com/game/daily/706496443) AussieJohn56 won a queen by force against his countryman (see below) and got an easy sweep. Maohi_98's brilliancy (https://www.chess.com/game/daily/706496319), sac'ing a knight for a pawn: @ginip1 got this beautiful knight checkmate 'en route' to going 2-0 against his opponent (https://www.chess.com/game/daily/706496435) : Marcos_Galue had 3 brilliant moves in 2 games. Here (https://www.chess.com/game/daily/706496331), he brilliantly sac'ed his rook for a pawn. My good friend @Alfred42000 made a beautiful game-winning discovery: g JCHWarriorZero's rook sacrifice is the right way to get a queen: Borondo1981 captured a bishop with checkmate!

Hey everyone. Due to some recent skepticism on the eligibility of the attached Wikipedia article on my last blog post I have decided to make a prequel explaining why grass is so dangerous. To start this off, everyone should know that Dihydrogen Monoxide is one of the MAIN components in grass. Now, I have a screenshot of a picture explaining some effects of Dihydrogen Monoxide. I will include a link to the article where you can actually see with your own eyes that this is true.  I would also like to mention that Dihydrogen Monoxide is a major component of the HUMAN BODY.  Here is a link to the official article where you can view the eligiblity of this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihydrogen_monoxide_parody#History Thanks everyone and I hope this clears up confusion about my previous post! @ant-x

Once upon a time (aka yesterday), I was sitting in my room doing awesome things (aka cc and music). Then as I sat there doing my awesome things, 8 of my glorious friends burst into my room in a shower of golden sparks (my imagination) with beautiful (scaryyyyy) blades of grass in their hands. So what could I do? I had to make a run for it. I jumped out of the window like spiderman (just pushed in between them). So I ran. There was a big field (true) so I ran around it into the woods onto the other side. Unfortunately, I had been tricked. 3 of them had run to that side to cut me off. I was forced back the other way into the field unfortunately I was running out of breath. A few of the chasers had stopped to catch their breath but several were still chasing. Eventually they overtook me and pushed me onto the ground (grass). For a few seconds I managed to hide inside my hoodie but then it (the grass ahhhhhhh) touched my legs. For a minute everything went still. Then they all just walked away laughing. A few hours later I had come up with my superrrr complex plan for revenge. So yeah, it was really complex. Just throw grass at them. So I proceeded to do that. I don't think any of them cared.. Now I have a problem. I will attach a screenshot of the Wikipedia article about grass. It says you can get skin cancer just from touching it..

BWHAHAHHAHA

I'll start, everyone has been nice to me and lots of fun events.

Just to put it in context, she put an insulting note in the club before she left:
