Why are there two clocks? Is one to check the other? Why are they showing different times? They must be broken!

Non-chesser: Knights are better than queens becuase they can jump over things. Also, they can fork pieces. My friend keeps on forking me with a knight! So why don't you capture that knight with your queen???

Recently, " Checkers is so much harder than chess because us Checker players use at least 10 times the logic than chess players do, mainly because we have more pieces" from a kid watching a chess game of mine at College....

I played a game today and the person would pick up the chess piece, move it to another square, keep his finger on the piece while thinking, then put it back to its original square. But he wouldn't put it back on the same square. Happened like 3 times in one game. It was an honest mistake, but I had to play police and make sure his piece went back on the correct square each time he would do that! LOL. I thought about telling him that it would be touch move if it was tournament chess, since we have a club tournment this week, but I figured it was just casual chess right now. And it was nice he stopped by to play at all.

More effort could have gone into that "argument" if it was logic he was trying to use!

Today,

Little kid plays chess with our chess club... "Can the king do this?" And he jumps the king over the pawn, looking at us, waiting for an answer. "No, unfortunately not," one of our club members gently responded. 

SO CUTE!! xD
