As a child, kco could hardly wait until December 24th to tear open his presents:
oh no this is crazy!!!
I do hope that poor Andy is doing okay at the Rest-home, his cousin Huey might stop by and give us an update soon.
kco's B&O:
--- Now that was a beautiful photo ( on page 7 ), I spent many years on the railway, that is to say on a full sized one tho lol.
Thanks for this thread !!! I'm having a big problem in my games ( NO, besides the fact that I'm one of the two players lol ). Whenever I'm busy getting my wall of pawns set up to block the other player along comes one of his Horsey pieces and just jumps over my pawns ! What is up with that ? These Horsey things seem to think that they are in the Olympics or something. I'm going to write directly to the FIDE head office. Enough is Enough !!!
--- And they are still doing the same thing !
wat most of u don't realise is that there is a minimum hand span required for playing chess, precisely for castling. u grab the king with ur pointer and thumb; and the tower with ur pinky and ringer although u risk pointing ur middler at the opponent. then u twirl ur wrist and there u have it - a dislocated wrist or castling properly executed. patzers ...
Spot on. This is why there is an initiative to set the minimum age of a player with FIDE ranking at 14. Younger kids don't have the requisite hand span.
Can't imagine the bunny used to write like that in those days. Little wonder he was banned.
And he's 2000+ in daily! Oh no this is super crazy that 2000+ doesn't knows what is castling and en passant
Is it? Or is it crazier that you didn't know he was joking?
I think you'll know en passant right?
--- Yup when I'm driving on the highway and I pull out and pass someone it is en-passant lol.
Btw I miss the time when people would do a funny thread thread like this here at this site.
--- Yep.
The running King move ! Ivanx00 gets my vote for the most innovative move of the year. I'll have to remember that one lol.
--- Mind you it is not a good move for older people, can't run very fast lol.
I am always cheerful when discussing time displacement. Still, I must say, if you're gonna be wrong about what day it is, at least you have the good sense to be early...
