Back from WHERE?


All your posts just disappeared! When Chess.com had to put you in 'timeout' were you in Poland? That's the rumour...

Actually, I cancelled my account, because I felt I was getting nowhere. But then I found out I couldn't get a refund, so I got Eric to let me have it back. I've got almost ten months left to work on it, so If I don't get better, nothing more lost.

Crying is for making your opponent think that you made a huge blunder. In reality it's a planned sacrifice. When he/she takes the bait you crush them like a bug! It's even better when they feel a little sorry for you and you show them the error of their ways.

Let's be real, a plastic bottle of water is not going to help with human-obliterating robots.  The better idea in this case is to conserve oil, get on their good side; then you can be their Vichy government.


I think they made the robots(that are going to be responsible for the end of the world) that drink water. I've talked to many robots.


You've talked to spray-painted drunks pretending to be robots, I bet.

Oh, ...at the end of the world.


I'm not just talking about the last shift I worked. I talk to robots calling themselves "husband" and "wife", and they are definitely going to be the robots responsible...for the end of the world.


 Stepford wives?  Was there a Stepford husband, too?

Avatar of trysts

Not stated blatantly in the movie, but the husbands must have been robots to want to be with other robots! Unless I'm assuming too muchUndecided

Yes, you haven't quite comprehended the male mind, have you?

Avatar of trysts

I thought that was how I could tell between a male, human being, and a robot? Wrong?

From crying to robots. Laughing

Three laws of robotics by Isaac Asimov

  1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
  2. A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
  3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

What most people don't know is Isaac Asimov's Law Zero: A robot may not injure humanity, or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.

You see, when robots figure out that it's not good for one human to harm another - we become controlled by robots through telepathy. Mind control!Surprised

Does anyone here feel that they are being controlled and/or influenced by a robot? Tongue out

How does a robot do telepathy?

Why did you wanted to leave?

Avatar of Conflagration_Planet

The reason I gave above. I'm stuck at around 950 on the TT. I go up a little, then back down, but my average stays about right there, and won't budge.

You do realize that it's you that has to change, right? Your TT rating won't change all on it's own.
