psychic chess masters

Oh come on, ivan!  That's a soy sauce!

I cannot use my psychic powers for fame, profit or to inflate the negative egos of skeptics.    OK, I'm getting something ... you're thinking "bullshit".  If you would like to offer me a donation in a spirit of humility for my demonstration just now, I will graciously accept it.

Hold on now. This thread is about "masters" having psychic powers. You're only a Class B. Or...perhaps...that is going by your chess.com rating, and not your official USCF rating...

Hey, can't a fella try to make a buck?

Lol

Today's magic is tomorrow's science. Today's psychics are magicians.

Wow. Almost at 1000 rated here on chess.com. Only 1200 more points until I become a master, then I will become a psychic and can read minds and have X-ray vision, shoot lasers out of my eyes and be able to do a cartwheel at 200kph. Izzat cool or what.

I can't wait!!!

Based on my chess, I'll never be psychic.

Then why did you make such a prophetic statement?

BBC pranks 3 mediums:

Also mediums have looked into a famous Dutch murder case which was 20 years old. They had many different explanations. Recently the murder has been solved with a big DNA research -all mediums where wrong.

These days, psychics, Bigfoot and Nessie are being kept at Area 51 I believe.  I'm not sure if they have a chess set there anymore though.  I remember hearing that it got lost in the Bermuda triangle around the time that Kirsan Ilyumzhinov was abducted by aliens.  Or perhaps the aliens took it with them.  Kirsan said that chess comes from space, so maybe they came to take their set back.

I actually enjoy these troll bait threads. the lolz is where it's at. And where's AlCzervik and FelixPlatypus? I noticed Felix's nutty chesser thread got deleted. Perhaps we went too far?

So with that being said, we better be careful on this thread, lest it gets deleted as well.

I have been part and parcel to a closing of threads. Mainly "How fast can you get this forum locked?" It wasn't that fast. Troll threads are the most entertaining for me.

And yes it is prophetic that I can predict I will never be a chess master.

When I was young I was very much interested in supernatural things, UFO's and religion. Read a bunch of books and talked to my mom and dad about it (dad dislikes religion because of the strict rules he grew up with, mom believes in Maria as a protecting angel). Eventually, while reading these books and getting taught biology, physics and chemistry, I came to the conclusion that none of the things I read has been proven in any way. Not 1 miracle happend in broad daylight in front of 20 people while being filmed from 3 angles. As for UFO's: the top UFO searcher from Holland quitted his job because he came to the conclusion that the UFO's where always filmed by 14px-potatoes or sighted by people who where treated for mental illnes. Religion: highly improbable.

The only thing that I still somewhat believe in is: Twins being connected in some way. In some cases twins experience the pain or other strong emotion of their brother/sister. This hasnt been tested under strict conditions, but I believe it could be possible. If so there is an explanation for it, so its not a supernatural phenomenon.

Still, I dont exclude the possibility of a God/deity or something supernatural happening. Its just that.. it seems very shy of camera's and other objective things. By now something supernatural shouldve been filmed by safetycamera's or camera's on cellphones. But.. it's not.

Ubik42's guide to how to live a stress free life, while also being right and able to win bets against all your friends:

1. Adopt the assumption that all psychics are just a bunch of frauds.

2 That UFO sightings are either from the delirious, the hoaxsters, or (probably most frequently) people not trained in observation and jumping to conclusions.

3. Religion is a combination of early age brainwashing and fear of death (coupled with bad training in critical thinking).

Hasnt failed me yet.

Sounds legit.

I always thought as much.  I played a game of blitz chess once on a train from Cologne to Paris, and there was no announcement of any "Belgium."  Mikhail Gurevich claims to have lived there, but my theory is that it's sort of like Atlantis or Shangri-La.

certainly some budding psychic masters in these forums

I wish that i was a telepathic chess player,then perhaps I would become a GM.
