Hi there! I'm Jack.

I'm going to update this regularly, so check back whenever.

Disclaimers:

I am not going to accept your random club invite since I don't know you, and I'm already too busy.

If I don't know you, please don't send me a friend request. At least send me a message first, ok?

If you make a joke, and I take it literally, I most likely do get the joke, and I am not actually concerned. So please just keep rolling with it instead of pointing it out.

Facts about me:

I like chess. I've played my whole life, but only started playing seriously about March 2023.

I am a Christian, if you are as well, let me know, and we can be friends. If not, let me know also and tell me why you believe what you believe. I'm always happy to debate any subject.

I am #1 rated on villagers chess, (Edit: Not anymore, but I am still in the top 2 active players in terms of skill) and I do free coaching if you want to get better at it, also join the club www.chess.com/club/villagers-chess-club/join

I am a custom variants tester. If you'd like me to review your custom variant, feel free to message me. Include a screenshot and a brief description please.

I am the former world's youngest person.

I'm also in speech and debate, which is one of my favorite things ever, it has the best people and everyone is friends with everyone else. (I finished 98th in debate last year out of over 750 teams!)

I have 7 siblings. Yes, they are a handful, but it is a blessing from God.

Some Cool People:

@ant-x A great friend. He's good at variants, and he's so dedicated to his clubs, and those that he helps in!

@Johannian07 I couldn't make this without putting you on here, now could I, Johan? An amazing club owner, a very based debater (except when not) and quite good at roasting people to a crisp.

@Sliverdove My sister. Also my debate partner. I love playing variants with her, she's one of the few people who can occasionally beat me at villagers'chess.

@Bsrti The head of the variants server, we play together sometimes. He's the guy I turn to when I get too full of myself and beat everyone, I can't beat him at anything.

@ChessMasterGS A great CGA and a great friend. We test variants together.

@BN1208 Also a great tester (And now a CGA!) very fun to play variants with and chat with.

@imchesspro0390 Such a good friend, variants creator, and villagers chess player. I love talking to him and playing with him.

@Haoleyi This guy is just pretty awesome. We play variants mostly, he's also in some pretty cool clubs with me.

@ilo722 From the OG VC squad. And still one of the best players to ever play the variant.

@ArchEmperorSolev He has the most interesting life story of anyone I've ever met, he's very fun to play and also to talk to. (Why did he get banned?)

@AidanMckinnon A really cool guy. I know him from speech and debate, he beat me in the finals of our last chess tournament together after beating my sister in semis. (Update: I beat him once, and now he's scared to play me, claims we both know that he's better.) (Update: He continues to say it everytime we see each other irl.)

@Kingsgambit_Unknowngamer3 Sometimes the definition of crazy, sometimes a very bad chess player, sometimes a great friend. He always brags that he'll beat me and never does. I know him from Stoa.

@Jujulovestoread So cheerful all the time, and so friendly!

@BasixWhiteGirl She's probably my favorite person on OTF, she's always very kind and willing to share her opinions, even after she's been through a lot.

@Retrac1107 He's a great friend to talk to, play vote chess with, and he's currently the owner of the Rulers of chess.

@Max_Wolfe This guy is really funny, you should check out his profile, it's always getting better.

@GMchessminator Such an amazing person, he really seems to get me. He is also the owner of one of my favorite clubs, the Paladins of Chess! (He's banned now. And his club just isn't the same.)

@Select_Chicken Literally everything this guy says needs more than one laughing emoji. He's so much fun to be around, and to talk to.

@Coyote2208 A super encouraging friend who's always kind to everyone no matter what they think, and always ready to brighten up your day with God's love.

@SusieMacd04 Update: @ESE_04 Why did you change your username? Anyway, a great friend to talk to and to stay up late chatting with. So yeah, she's the source of much of my bad sleep habits.

@Ezraand07 Update: @ESE_07 This guy is always there for when you need someone smart to jump and and bring order to the chaos. Very logical and smart all the time, and a reliable friend.

@Emma_Lynnae Update: @ESE_09 What a great friend. I really can't begin to describe how awesome she is. But yeah, just like the rest of the notorious Todd gang. Be warned, all of you.

@Maethehuntress The 3rd member of the notorious Todd gang. Also the shortest. (Please don't kill me, Abby) She's also super fun to talk to, play Mafia with, and just about anything else.

@AlasseEstel You will not meet a nicer girl in your life. She is always so encouraging, wise, and responds perfectly to every situation that I see her in.

My Elite Absolute Bestest Best Friends Ever:

@Avabava10 I don't really know where to begin. She is one of the most friendly, encouraging, God loving girls I ever met. She declared war on me, so we are now officially frenemies. But I love talking to her, doing our role play game, and literally anything else CHT related. Ava, you are truly a gift from God. (Why did you close your account???)

@Dranyam00 He's a smart and interesting guy, we also play variants together. Sadly I don't see him very much anymore, but I'll still remember him as quite possibly my first good online friend.

@Morgoth_Belegurth No words are sufficient.

My favorite clubs:

https://www.chess.com/club/christian-homeschool-team This club is one of the oldest on chess.com, and it has the best forums ever. Especially the memes forum. It also has the BEST people ever. And I mean that.

https://www.chess.com/club/the-great-war-of-jack-vs-ava This is a war game club that me and my friend @Avabava10 are running, it's turning out to be a ton of fun. Join if you like war, but not if you don't have a decent amount of time to spend on it, it takes a lot of attention.

https://www.chess.com/club/king-of-the-hill-team-1 This club has a bunch of great people, and always has great events to play in.

https://www.chess.com/club/the-rulers-of-chess This club has some of my favorite people in it, and is great for unwinding. (Hayley's gone now. Sad.)

https://www.chess.com/club/the-club-of-debate-and-discussion Have you ever had the most brilliant idea to post a very controversial topic? And then you get a lot of push back and regret it? Well in this club, you can post those ideas, and have very good discussions and debate about them. This club has so many smart people to hash out your ideas with. Just a great place to talk.

https://www.chess.com/club/variant-lovers-club This is my variants club, join if you like variants.

https://www.chess.com/club/mafia-masters If you enjoy playing Mafia, or would like to learn, this would be the place. There's lots of great people and mafia games.

https://www.chess.com/club/villagers-chess-club A club for villagers chess, my favorite variant! We have tournaments periodically, and they are loads of fun.

Oh, and here's a great poem I got from @sealteamaquaa

in a field of yellow flowers
underneath the sun
bluest eyes that spark with lightning
boy with shoes undone
he is young, so full of hope
reveling in tiny dreams
filling up his arms with flowers
right for giving any queen
running to her, beaming bright
while cradling his prize
a flickering of yellow light
within his mother's eyes
she holds them to her heart
keeping them where they'll be safe
clasped within her very marrow
dandilions in a vase
she sees love where anyone else would see weeds
all hope is found, here is everything he needs
fathomless Your endless mercy
weight i could not lift
where do i fit in this puzzle?
what good are these gifts?
not a martyr or a saint
scarcley can i struggle through
all that i have ever wanted
was to give my best to You
Lord search my heart
create in me something clean
...dandelions...
You see flowers in these weeds
gently lifting hands to heaven
softened by the sweetist hush
a Father sings over His children
loving them so very much
more than words could warrant
deeper than the darkest blue
more than sacrifice could merit
Lord, i give my heart to you
Lord search my heart
create in me something clean
...dandelions...
You see flowers in these weeds
