It wasn't as good IMO, probably because I've heard that same argument about stalemate a million times. But I guess it counts, and I hope he makes even more.

I feel like the higher rating you get, the less you can make humor that's not self-deprecating. You, Daniel, B1z, and Lightning all make your best jokes when criticizing your moves or something.
they aren't jokes...

It's just a hot take... but it has some truth to it... you can probably squeeze out 100 points or something.
But yeah, I don't know if people realize... for example Carlsen was over 2700 at age 16. He's in his 30s now. How much has he improved since then? Relatively speaking, not much.
i got to 2300 online when I was around 15, close to 16 basically
I have improved... not at all.

I do believe that Biz's blogs are convoluted
The secret is a lack of proofreading and pretending to have a conversation with someone while writing everything down word for word

I do respect the view chasing blogs, it's gotten you a blog of the month, and since you also post recaps, I think it makes you the most well-rounded out of the three. Although Lightning's NCP interrogation was the best recent blog out of you three.
That's a good point about Roger
I would do the whole view chasing blog thing, but I don't like the idea of chess views on here lol

Oh no it's wasn't even 1/10 as good IMO lol but still a little funny I hope
I'll do more questionioning NCPs eventually. The problem is, I'm not very social and I have few friends, so I'll have to talk to strangers to get answers lol

What's your hottest take on chess? Could be about top players or about the game itself.
A hot take is basically just another word for an unpopular opinion.
Ex. Lasker is the GOAT, Stalemate should be removed.
Feel free to debate with others!
3 minute blitz and under are the equivalent of puzzles
a hot take? well if you mean about female players, i think its a good thing not about looks or appearance but that female players are getting more into the game and having fun. the bad side i would say would just be the people with devilish intentions or acting toxic about them even being apart of the game calling them weak or something not nice. chess wise i really enjoy the botez sisters as they are awesome and really have done a good job they deserve it

no no, we don't talk about that
i dont judge female players for their appearance but rather love thier kindness and bravery like any other player here who wants to have a good time playing and maybe win a few games. chess is not about laughing at others or judging them based off a face, its about having good moments with each other in a well nice community and chess.com represents that. no doubt i believe that regardless of gender, race, or age chess has brought us all together and thats what matters cause in the end we all help chess get better friends
It was golden, and @Lightning needs to make more or we'll get @B1ZMARK to annoy him.
