Chess is good for your brain.....I think??? lol
Is Chess Bad for your Brain?
Interesting topic by the OP. However the real question is how would a person know if Chess is bad for the brain ? I mean if a person started playing Chess and it is bad then it is TOO LATE after the games are underway ( ie: by then the camel already has his nose under the tent flap ).

Oh great, now we need to find chess players who've had sex.
! (Have you been nominated in the "Funniest Chess Player?" forum?!)

No. My low-key approach (and desire not to be muzzled) limits my usual style. About a year ago, I was much more outrageous. But a number of trolls pretty much ruined it for everyone.

Look, if you just Answer the 3 questions without being a Smarta__, they'll let you go over the bridge! (oh, I forgot, we all have brain damage, now.!)

Well it all depends really. There are a few cases of ches players really going crazy. But if you play chess, somewhat competativly, but mostly for fun and a few tournaments here and there, I think it is good for your brain. I started chess abooout, 5 months ago? end of december. But I have noticed my memory has increased, I can remember things easier. Plus getting good at chess at a decently quick pace has really made me feel great, like I have accomplished something in my life finally. So chess can be good or stressful, it depends on the person, how they are, how serious they are and how well they deal with preassure and failue.
Tonto right. Chess good. Like Ubik42 say 2 posts ago. Only sometimes MIL'S brain hurt after chess. Maybe MIL not doing it right.
