I thought it was about learning the processes of victory!

I thought it was about learning the process of the principles.

TheGrobe

I thought it was principally about learning from the process.

I thought it was about learning the processes from the school principle.

AlCzervik

I'm particularly concerned about participation of the principled process, unless it's precariously peculiar.

   Winning at chess is not about learning the rules of chess; it is about learning the principles of winning.

yea you aren't going to win if you don't learn the rules of chess.. how you can say that learning the chess rules isn't about winning is beyond reason.

So ?????? - just how many Carats does a turd have to be to get into a Jeweller's window

winerkleiner

It has to be one special turd.  A turd so awsome history will claim it as unique and powerful!

Not to mention, beautiful.

Believe it or not, chess sets have been made out of dung.

I don't believe just anyone could become a super gm. The person needs to have the commitment of devotion, extremely high relevant aptitude, strong interest in chess, and probably much more.

This is not to say you can't do it. Perhaps you have all of the important factors needed to be a super gm.

Some threads are full of it, too.

Surprised

A lot of people claim anything is possible. But we have to remember that because "anything" is possible does not mean "everything" is possible. Ratings are based on how much ahead of the average players are. If everyone starts being a GM, then that would just mean that the standard of being a GM would go up.

winerkleiner

Sounds logical.

And principled.
