Stuff Non-Chess Players Say

I'm not a fan of Chess960, but then again, I haven't played many variant games... I haven't heard about it much in clubs either.

Same, same. 

(PS I'm on a train right now hehehe)

Haha... I like how they're playing chess on a stool. 

Lol. Goes well with JayBo's post. 

And... penguins!!!!! 

Yeah that's pretty lame! I don't allow vacation time  I mean, why challenge someone (to any game) and then use vacation time? Whaaat. (If that's what you were talking about lolll.)

Speaking of variant chess... do you like playing Chess960? I know bughouse chess is popular in Chess Clubs but I don't hear anything from people about Chess960/Fischer Random Chess. Is it just a technicality that people don't know how to randomize the pieces at setup?

I'm playing one right now with Fantation. We decided to try it and so far im not even used to playing this style. This wrecks all the strategies out of me

Love the cartoon-anybody know the source? Are there collections of chess cartoons in book form?

Hmmm... let me know how it goes and if you recommend it. 

Thanks ackyou for answering my question re: the cartoon and for posting it

I think there needs to be more chess comics, more chess memes, more chess everything! Woo-hoo!

If I want to play correspondance chess at my club, do I still have to put a stamp on the envelope ?

So if I check my opponent Im not suppose to say check ? And if I have a check mate, I'm not suppose to say checkmate ?  So how do I win again ?

Lol...
