I purchased the Grand Kingdom. If my boss will not interested to buy the other computer I will end up with two.
Okay, I can try to sell the first device on eBay, if needed.

I think they are not discussing it cause they all have it already and are content with themselves

Perhaps. In any case, I didn't play a single game against humans yet, as my main time control is Daily Chess, three days. I will soon start a tournament with one day. No time for other things.

I really wish I could buy a Grand Kingdom set. Although I am saving up so my dad can buy me the Hamilton Khaki Feild Automatic. It is cheaper and I have been wanting it for the past 6 months now....

I guess replaying the moves on a plastic board will have to do...

I always feel bad if somebody invite me to play in Square Off and I have to refuse. Because the idea is really to play against humans, I guess.

On the other hand, it is cool to play against the weak levels and see in which level you begin to lose.

Yeah I do that with stockfish

I never liked very much to play against engines.  I like more to play against old computers, from the 1980s.

I used to have a cheap board from toys r us. I think it was 2300 elo. I beat it up to 11 out of 20

I remember a strong player (IM, I think) who learned a lot playing seriously against an old chess computer and analysing the games carefully. No takebacks, of course, and trying hard to find good moves in each position.

Ich wäre daran interessiert und bin auch in der Schweiz.

Is it similar to Square Off?

Maybe I didn't get it right. I thought you had two square off sets, a grand kingdom set and a kingdom set and understood that you wanted to sell the kingdom to your boss. And I said, I would also be interested to buy the Kingdom and am also in Switzerland.

No, I have a Novag Adversary Robot and a kingdom set. Now I purchased the Grand KS and plan to sell the Kingdom set to my boss.

Okay, I googled it, it is a watch, right?

Would you be interested in selling ME the Kingdom set instead of your boss?

torrubirubi

Where do you leave in Switzerland? I am in Bern 

torrubirubi

I will first ask my boss,  and if he says no I can make a good price for you 

torrubirubi

Because I really would like to use it in my chess lessons,  and my boss will probably pay the full price

McGoohan

Okay, ask your boss, and if he says no, we'll keep looking. I am in Central Switzerland. Zurich would perhaps be a meeting place about halfway between us. Or postal delivery is certainly not a problem in Switzerland either. Then please tell me what your boss means.
