I'm new to the site just 2 days old. and i think it's a brilliant chess site. BUT im not a fantastic player, i was just playing 5 games at once and it got a bit confusing.

so how about setting the timer for about 10 mins, then i won't have to go away paint the kitchen and come back before the opponent moves.

ps

i can only think 1 move ahead

"Live Chess" is being worked on, don't worry. You'll be able to play fast games with it.

Try painting the lounge as well, and by the way 'Camalot' is spelled 'Camelot'.

I am really painting the kitchen. and in my kingdom i will spell how i like. if you are the 8th excalibur(a mere copy) you should be nicer to your king.

ps arther is spelt wrong as well(its so nobody can have the same name)

I think it was Capablanca who once said something like "I only think one move ahead;but it's the best move"

I knew that.  Not a mere copy, and I wasn't trying to be funny, just a bit facetious. We must cross swords over the board sometime.

I can't wait for Live Chess, this current state of HAVING to play about 22 games simultaneously to keep a nice flow of making moves is, how they say in germany, nicht gut!

how could seeing only the best move in a position hurt your game...
Avatar of crippendorf
sacrifice the best move now for the best move at a later, more crucial stage thats how
