which were so crazy chess.com literally logged me out in the middle of reading

a) i thought this was finished when i left but nope... seems that yall were playing bricks

b) will we do a march 2.0 and continue this somewhere else

c) chess.com conversations get insane nowadays

ig just a server wide bug

anyway, i thiink ethan said that "me, frog, samuel, d4, sampson are all fighting vs bricks on the sicilian" or something but im sure that they forgot about me lol

i literally play 1...e5 but i was defending the sicilian

Yerachmeal

I'm gone 24 hours and this forum goes from being page 10 to page 29? Someone recap what happened for me.

a gigantic argument between @ScrumptiousBricks

vs 

me, @SamuelAjedrez95, @TheSampson, @d4iscrazy, @Ethan_Broiler, @Sea_Turtie

about the sicilian

more like @ScrumptiousBricks breaking down as everyone refuted the dumb arguments

which, btw, reminded everyone of your arguments

and you left at the exact time @ScrumptiousBricks joined

maybe you werent gone, and instead were here on a second account

maybe not..

What's that I was seeing about a "bricks list" this page?

ok jokes aside sampson is just weirdly good, managed to turn the game from losing for white to 1-0 in 10 moves, almost bot-like

he also played like a bot in the second game and he was literally never worse, he also made a few odd moves which I found bot-like

88% accuracy at that length of a game is a huge red flag tho

Ikr Sampson defeated me

Accuracy rating for one game isn't a good indication of cheating. Even if it's 99%. Sometimes the best moves might be easy to find.

It would have to be something like 98%+ average across several games to be suspicious.

Magnus is looking pretty sus 🤔

Btw just a friendly tip no harm intended; I'm happy to help anyone: play 3. nd2 or 3.nc3 or 3. e5 in the french, not 3.bd3. Bd3 looks and is weird

Bd3 is actually perfectly legitimate. GothamChess likes it. But so does IM Alex Banzea and GM Niclas Huschenbeth. Even CFL made a course on it.

No we are not the same (notice that we have different ratings).

Maybe the computer sees equality. But it’s still practical and a valid option. The scotch gives equality, does that mean it’s a bad opening? No

" ruy lopez and scotch are the two ways for white to fight for an advantage vs 1...e5" - someone i think

White can still try to play for an advantage.

Scotch is just better tbh
