What's the worst thing about chess? Should I convert to a more fulfilling game?

I highly recommend co-ed swimsuit wrestling

Correct me if I'm wrong and perhaps if read elsewhere (other than a Beast post, that is), but I believe this has already been incorporated into Welsh-rules chess?

Sans pool, of course. And the swimsuits are all long sleeved and pants. Furthermore, the co-ed tourneys are segregated into four (4) non-male and non-female brackets.

Edit: Clarification - The brackets are still co-ed genetically speaking,  but are now categorized by gender-expression:

1. masculine 
2. feminine 
3. neither (neuter)
4. both (androgynous)

Freecell is an awesome solo strategy game where every game is winnable.

i agree: the chess mafia will be very displeased if you leave.

how did you teach Rwandan kids to play chess in Welsh???

He teaches hyper-modernism and counter-intuitivism styles...which are distinctly from the Welsh school of chess.  See previous posts.

The worst thing about chess is all the blood noses!

Championship Hot Dog eating is very fulfilling.

 Is there a free online site for that too? Sign me up, brother!

 Dou you mean counter-intuitivismism?  ie the Welsh school.

Chess is fulfilling!!!

Yes, full of creamery custard filling.

And with crispy, flakey goodness on the outside.

I can't believe in your biography. How you can teach Rwandan kids chess with your online rating 1362? How the knight moves? Sorry, you are beginner. Also can't take seriously all this talk about conversion, there is nothing to convert from. Of course, if you like Backgammon you can play it as much as you want, but I would rather teach the kids chess.

Looks like we're running low on hooks and the reel is just about out of line. Congratualtions, Beast, you should be a fisherman - you have the gift for making lures, picking the best bait and definately for telling tales.

Rollingpawns.  Don't you think you're being a little harsh?  You don't have to be a grandmaster to teach chess.  The kids in Kigali are rated like 400 - 600 from what I heard and so he's doing them a huge benefit.  Plus they don't have food so at least they can play chess to take their minds off the problems.

When I tire of chess, I play strategy games like "Samurai Swords."

I just discovered, if you spin in a circle quickly for about 10-15 minutes and then read the forums you get a really wild perspective...........just thinking outloud...

Correspondence championship hotdog eating? Awesome!

Do you really need to prove your intelligence by coming into all of these threads and repeatedly stating that you get the joke?
