I think it's referred to as 'hope chess.' Make a move and hope for the best. I mean, I generally have a little bit of a plan but it's also very difficult for me to think more than 2 or 3 moves ahead. I just can't visualize it in my head lol. It's a little reassuring knowing that this is the case for the vast majority of casual players.
Then you got the fucking super GMs playing 5 people simultaneously while blindfolded keeping track of all the games in their head at the same time.
I recall hearing that Magnus has like 10,000 games just memorized, and I saw a thing where they just showed him random chess positions and he could recall what specific games they were from. -

Heard. I think I play too aggressively and impatiently nowadays. I used to be more defensive and take my time setting up solid positions, more or less playing it safe and simply waiting for my opponent to make a mistake. Now I just want to make something happen and look for the "kill-shot" as soon as I can, which often gets me into trouble. I need to go back to my roots. -

Depends on the time format. But, for the most part, I guess I would say I'm about average for anyone who plays semi-regularly but doesn't study chess at all really. Maybe even slightly below average. I make dumbass blunders all the time.

Originally posted by Kawkasian It's a numbers game, in that you have to go regularly…a 1 time visit is more than likely going to result in disappointment…but if you go several times a week that's when you find the golden egg.
I would just get chummy with one of the employees and give them a list of what to look for, slip em a few greenies on the side. Could even just have them wear a go-pro on their head all day and have a live streaming connection to your work computer so you can just see what they see at all times making sure you never miss any GOLDEN EGGS -

Coincidentally upon waking today I see the ground covered in this year's first snowfall here. IT HAS BEGUN.
speaking of snow and shit, if you ever want to punish a kid, just make him clean up a winter's worth of dog shit after the snow melts in spring time and there's about 500 piles of wet soggy dog poops laying about -

2023-10-27 at 12:25 PM UTC in if you met a mentallkyill girlI've got the greatest shits. Nobody produces fresher, steamier shits than I do. I look at my shits and say, wow, this is remarkable. This is unlike any shits we've seen before. And people love them. They can't get enough of them. They gobble that shit right up.
