Baseball and swimming are kind of the same though...

We can add them too,what say?

Checkers aren't a variant of chess. I don't see any reason why it has to be added in Chess.com

Yes let's add baseball and swimming. They are games as well.

This is a chess site and a checkers site would benefit from having it's own site. When I look at these forums, I'm looking for chess information. When I look at artilcles, videos, lessons, etc. I'm looking for chess lessons.

I do not want the aggravation of having to clance through checkers titles, etc. to get to chess stuff.

He is trolling us.Is'nt it obvious?

I'm serious I think chess.com could benefit from checkers and other chess variants.

Yes. Don't you see the resemblance? (sarcasm alert!)

Checkers is half the game that chess is.

BeepBeepImA747
It is a very similar game.
FM_Checkmate

What makes it so similar?

BeepBeepImA747
Strategy and tactics? 8x8 checkered board?
BetweenTheWheels

Yes but half of those squares, for practical purposes, aren't even there. Hence my previous comment.

I don't quite get what you mean?
