tygxc the fact that your argument that chess is a draw doesnt even depend on the rules of chess should be very obvious that it is flawed.


Think about it. Obviously the rules of chess define the game itself. However, perhaps you're missing the important context. MARattigan has made lots of spurious arguments about small potential differences in the rules regarding repeated moves (that obviously cannot affect whether it's drawn) and 50 or 75 moves rules etc, which can affect it. However, most sensible people aren't interested in 50 or 75 move rules and are only concerned with the inherent nature of chess as described by the movement of the pieces and the board size. In this context, things like 50 move and 75 move rules can be considered to be add-ons, which don't affect whether chess is inherently drawn. tygxc is without doubt a silly person indeed but regarding this, if this is the context he's talking about, he's right.

ngl the stuff with u and the rest of the squad is just who can be a bigger dingus over semantics.  

you know as well as I do that I wasnt referring to just rules like the 50 move 'rule' 

MEGACHE3SE

dont try to pretend like u werent instigating mar, he do be kinda bruh, but their arguments werent really bad.  it was mostly just semantics/syntax that yalls argued over.

MEGACHE3SE

like the battle of agincourt might be a bit off topic

MEGACHE3SE

at this point everybody (regular) except tygxc is kinda trolling, you and me included.  tygxc's thought process is so convoluted that he probably thinks that he is doing some sort of service.

Your perception here is because all the arguments (including all of yours, I should point out), have been covered half a dozen times each in the previous 400 pages.  Tygxc was also refuted by everybody in another thread before this one even came to be.   

For myself, I only engage Tygxc every few weeks.  Just often enough to try to keep newcomers like yourself (that don't read backwards through the posts very far) from getting sucked in by Tygxc continuing to post his garbage uncontested.  As you can see, this doesn't always work out.  So here you are, reinventing the wheel yet again.

"including all of yours, I should point out"

im not surprised. 

MEGACHE3SE

"tygxc was probably referring to the 50. Move rule and to rules like it. How do you know he wasn't? " 

because he didnt refer to any rule  or collections of rules whatsoever in his post.  I recommend you actually read the posts instead of trying to spark a flame war

If only each of you were to blink out of existence.

Ian_Rastall

I really do mean that. The world would be better off without you.

Ian_Rastall

No, it's true. This world is buried under the weight of people like you. Your existence is a burden.

This might have more bite coming from someone that mattered to me.  Ponder your own worth before you pass summary judgment on groups of people.  Have you contributed anything on the forums?  Nothing that I have seen.

Ian_Rastall

It's okay, though. It needs to be said, btickler. The best gift you could give this world would be to never move or speak.

If you ever get depressed, at least you understand why. You deserve to feel that way.

Physician, heal thyself.  Having a bad day?

I'm looking at the sum total of who you all are. You truly are all a waste of life. There is no other way to put it. Just shut this thread down. Whatever it takes.

Ian_Rastall

My God, just cease to be. Just leave this world alone.

Ian_Rastall

It doesn't matter. One of you will hear me.

Ian_Rastall

Consider it the shotgun approach.

You realize that you are the one coming in here and reading it, right?  It your choice...or are you helpless to stop yourself?

I suspect if you were to objectively compare your life to others here, you would come up short.  Ergo the bitterness.
