Is there any discord server for this site? If so, can you give me an invitation link?

Oh!  That's sad... Thanks for the info.

I only know about this one. It's for beginners but there are a few titled players and even a GM who shows up now and then.

Idk. Lol. May be he has look that is similar to Paul Morphy?  At least I find it similar. This character is after all extremely clever and strategical in the story. He can think many moves ahead and is always calm.

I'm impressed with google image search. Took me to Tower of God wiki and says: "Yu Han Sung . . . Despite his feminine appearance, he is actually male"

Haha the wiki is right. When I first saw him, I confused him as a woman. Wiki is so specific about it too lol

We should start a not dead one

llama

That one isn't dead, and last I checked it had 500 members.

Yu-Hopkins

Yeah, they immediately gave a hi. I can see a lot of active people are there. So, what have you been up to?  And which chess channel on youtube do you follow the most recently?   

Lc0_1

oh wow

I don't do much with chess lately. I guess I like to watch Svidler and Jan give commentary when top players are playing... sometimes I watch a random Akobian video from St Louis Chess Club because he's great (even though most of the stuff is aimed at players lower rated than me).

I would love to stream on discord but... Eh

I love Jan and especially his ramblings haha. Gotta love Radio Jan. Kek. 

And Akobian.  There was a time I used to see his videos all day. He is like one of my first teachers.

LcO is busy inventing new theories to crush Stockfish. No time for lowly humans.

People go bananas over Finegold's comedy tour (so to speak) but Akobian is like an actual teacher. It's like a free chess lesson.

Finegold gives some good comments of course, but he's mostly joking around.
