hElLo aLl, Lets discuss on some out of chess topic,I have a topic in mind which i had faced in Group discussion round of campus interview.. "Is money necessary to make money" I had chosen to argue for rather than for going against, i did that thinking everybody will go for against and i will get lot of people to argue..but sadly most of them went for for itself.. one girl had chosen against and the argument she took was on Dr.Rajkumar's ...lets c what u guys have to say abt. Thank you Shruthi(FLTLT)

Guys willing to be any of this two are welcome ...Just type in ur name and u will be assigned to lead a game For now will be assigning captains and vice captain on the performance in team vote chess .

Hello All, Many people in this site asked me abt why do we keep loosing inspite of having equal positions..I used to tell may be because u committed blunders in between..Well every time thats not the case..Here is a match i lost to on farely equally position , i had made made 2 inaccurate moves..and ya even my opponent had made 2 inaccurate moves..The reason for my loosing in farely equal position can be answered by one thought of Attack vs Defense..at one stage it looked good to me with Bishop vs Knight end game with rooks..Quickly my opponent got chance to be on offensive side and he thrashed me from there..my poor Bishop Couldn't get the power it needed..More will be explained in game..Take a look at this match. I hope this game made u learn something...Its the best game i have played till now..sadly didn't end good for me :-( Haan Please read today's Hindu news paper..There is article abt two Indian Pilots on there immediate rescue missions on Japan's tsunami hit..Its nice. Thank you Shruthi
