Badboi(OD) 750 Posted February 27 Author Share Posted February 27 Since the poll is tied, we can split the difference and set it up for next Saturday at 3pm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chanter(OD) 40 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I'm interested in watching, rather than playing, if that is ok. I think I already have an account at the chess site, will have to dust it off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chanter(OD) 40 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 In addition to the chess tourney, is there any interest within OD in just playing chess recreationally? My health is bad to the point that even a friendly tourney might be to stressful, but a few casual games might be just what the doctor ordered. Any interest in some casual games?

I understand completely. On LiChess, they have correspondence game. I'm down for a game anytime and we can play slow, so it's less stressful. I hope your help improves. https://lichess.org/@/BadboiOD 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chanter(OD) 40 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 (edited) I used to be a decent amateur enthusiast, but was never a member of the ACF, so my former skills may or may not be up to providing folks with a challenge. Edited March 4 by Chanter(OD) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chanter(OD) 40 Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 https://lichess.org/@/VoidStalker666 is the proper way I guess of giving out my info on that site. I'll be back and potentially playing some after 5pm EST today, and am especially interested in slow paced chess games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JuJu(OD) 26 Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 (edited) OK I got those who posted followed, not sure if thats friends list or what. Ill be down for no time limit games, I should figure out how to actually play.. Back in the day we just played on the porch to pass time.. Now when I go to these sites they got 18000 Offenses/Defenses.. No idea where to begin. I do the Challenges/Puzzles but Idk if its because im always high or wat.. I just cant see "the path to victory" most the time. Edited March 5 by JuJu(OD) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chanter(OD) 40 Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Re the puzzles, yesterday I had managed to hit 1800, but then today my brain turned to mush, and I dropped all the way back down to the 1600's. Just played my first few games, and managed too win 2 of 6, so not as horrible as I feared, but much left to be desired. At least my worthy opponent wasn't bored out of his mind playing against me for playing so badly. 🙂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TOURNEY TOURNEY TOURNEY... DISCORD CHANNEL DISCORD CHANNEL/ CHESS SQUADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Yes Chanter already asked for a Discord channel and I created one this morning. It's at the bottom of Discord "Chess Club". I originally signed up for playing tonight but now I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it. We'll just have to see how long my appointment takes. Just letting you know I was flaking on purpose lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chanter(OD) 40 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I almost missed it as well, somehow my brain got fixated on the 6, and so I showed up at 5:30 thinking I was early, lol. Had a blast though, and got to meet everybody. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
