I’ve been playing for almost seven centuries in earth years. Our planet had vastly different rules though, no en passant or castling. We used Cyborg rules but, ran out of expendable Blytherins captured from the 1-e4_d5 Galaxy to use as, what you call pawns. Nasty little buggers too. I’m just getting used to this earthly version since mind-melding is somewhat frowned upon by chess.com enthusiasts. Our current champion is an android named Maximus C. Nobody can match his grasp of Tenth Sense Perception and uncanny ability to appear almost nonchalant and robotic while destroying all challengers, AI programs, and anything popping it’s ugly head out of the worm hole.

I started playing when I was seven so basically five years. I took it seriously for a bit, won a tournament, played with my dad and stuff. Then, I quit chess for a while and started talking it seriously in November 2020.

I've been playing since I was 4, so I've been playing for about 7 years now, and I still don't know how to checkmate someone sad.png

Learned the rules when I was 8, won my second game. My mom never fully recovered from it, and kept a conflictual attitude toward Chess after that.

hum, interesting. My dad never complained about losing, but I always put winning positions for me against my dad so always won grin.png
