Chess Researcher/Historian Needed!

God I hate old German script

You don't get to be the so called "good guy" for free. Everything has a cost. I see you through you like glass.

I'm Vietnamese. The kid who invented Ghettopoly is Taiwanese.

I speak the truth. I claim to speak the truth.

Ghettopoly sells because it speaks the truth. Negative truth, but truth nevertheless.

Stop name calling and dispute the truth I and the creator of the game speak.

The cost of being a "good guy" is doing the right thing, we should all be willing to pay that cost.

Ghettopoly costs too much.

You don't get to pretend to be a good guy without cost.

I am the good guy.

I speak the truth.

@blackplaysfirst defame chess (as in defamation). While there's whole Ghettoopoly game he has nothing to say about.

If @blackplaysfirst cares so much about Black people, why don't he donate to the

UNCF

1805 7th Street NW
Washington, D.C. 20001

You know, "A mind is a terrible thing to waste".

Oh, I can't spell the full name of the UNCF.

Chess.com won't let me. Chess.com will ban me.

Chess.com is racist, right here, right now.

You try typing out the full name of the UNCF.

I speak the truth.

Why is that?

Why does Ghettopoly costs too much compared to Monopoly?

Because the harsh truth is expensive and innocuousness is cheap.

I should trademark that and put it on a T-shirt.

Although philosophically, one cannot trademark the truth.

I thought it traces back to Renaissance Italy. Ebony was considered a "Lucky" material, so going second was the trade-off.

"Monopoly is a game of the captialistic pigs, kapitalisticheskiye svin'i (swines)"

That actually has merit as opposed to saying chess is racist.

4:45

And why is moving first an advantage?

I'll let you move first in rock-paper-scissors.

Sometimes moving first, you show your hand.

Boxing. There's a thing called counter-punching. You let the other guy punch first.

In tennis, I let the other guy serve first. So he can be tired first.

Let's go back to the beginning.

Where was chess invented? India.

What is chess?

It's Indians fighting Indians. In Ebonics, that's called "Black on Black crime."

Chess is Indian on Indian crime.

Chinese chess, Chinese on Chinese crime.

Shogi, Japanese on Japanese crime.

You can buy a beautiful American Civil War from the Franklin Mint. And Americans are honest about it.

The Civil War: Brother against Brother.

I speak the truth.

Call it for what it is.

The Franklin Mint has sold the Civil War Chess Set for years.

But brothers fighting against brothers is still available in a store near you.

Blackjack. In the game also called Twenty and One.

There are also Red jacks.

I like that. Wesley Snipes should star in a movie called Blackjack.

He starred in New Jack City. And he said, "Always bet on Black."

Blackjack.

Trolling is available here

I am not trolling.

I am telling my point in a comical and entertaining way.

The root meaning of entertain is to enter and to hold, contain, obtain, retain, detain.

I'm trying to get into your mind and get a hold of you.

@BlueHen86

I'm telling a joke, to explain a point clearly.

Everything I say is true.

Tell me something I say that is not true?

@lobster62 - that's interesting. do you if it was ever a hard and fast rule, or sort of an informal custom, or just a high-percentage occurrence? Also, do you remember where you read it? from what I understand, through the 1800s, players liked to choose their favourite colour, and to some who were superstitious it was a big deal. A customary tradeoff at that time could have been to cede the first move. But what if someone thought ivory was lucky and wouldn't mind going second? thanks for the input

@long_quach then why don't you go start your own campaign against ghettopoly, in a ghettopoly forum or discord group or wherever. i wish you good luck. stop trolling this thread

@wacky_woohoo_pizza_man I knowww.... i feel like it's so hard to make out the characters in old German script
