how strange
And Yet MORE Silly Rules In Chess lol
By the way AndyClifton someone posted some photos in a thread yesterday and claimed that they were pictures of you. There was a family resemblance to your avatar.
Thanks for the recent posts.
I see that we now have a thread in the forums that considers Chess as therapy and also one that asks if Chess leads to insanity. It is interesting to speculate if Chess could be called therapy ( or perhaps Chess creates the need for therapy ? ). Several well known Chess players have been rather unstable and one could ask if they would also have been unstable without being involed in Chess ? Then again is it a coincidence that I have posted these questions in a thread that has the word " silly " in the title ?
Why is there anger in stranger?
A better question:
there's anger in danger,
But why no danger in strangers?
Thanks for all of the new posts.
I see that nobody has taken an interest in my Chug-a-lug Chess Match idea ( back on page 6 ). Well we all know what Swingers Chess players are, I mean finish a Game and it's off to the nearest Pub to get plastered lol. I do think that we need to be more creative tho to get more people interested in Chess.
Someone has a thread on the go now because they want to be Congratulated after they win a Game. Well it is nice if your oponent says gg after a Game but a lot of people here just want to play without chatting at all. Mind you we could take a survey and if enough people need to be Congratulated then we could ask Chess.com to add a new feature. After a player wins a game his Computer could blare out a recording of The Double Eagle March and the Monitor could show a clip of Fireworks going off ( indicating that the person who won is truly a Wonderful Human Being ! ).
Instead of congratualating the winner -- how about the first eight bars of the winner's national anthem?
Yeah I know (I was being whimsical).
