I used to pay on Pogo. com but haven't played in awhile. Also played Chessmaster on Nintendo. Seems like everyone plays video games these days and don't play actual board games anymore. 😟

no my grandpa tried getting me into it like a decade ago so ik how to play it but idc for it one of the few times that old fart was interested in talking to me lmfao

It's been a while. That's something I'd like to get back into.

Not so good anymore (my kids beat me all the time).

I do, and have "played' for some time, but am not a good player like many I meet. I have a chess board set up in my living room and have tried to teach myself some opening, offensive strategies, that would be effective in play. I became interested again after watching a GREAT movie about a young girl who learned to play chess in the basement of an orphanage playing against the Janitor, and he helped her move on and up and she won a world championship against a Russian champion. I hope you saw the film also... I cannot recall the name of the film!

I think? It's been too long, so I'd need to know how to do it again.

Yes I can. I'm at about 850 at the moment in my scoring.

it was the second game my father taught me after checkers. However I'm not autistic enough to be good in this game.

Not at all, and I personally find it boring

Almost a 1550 rating, been playing casually for a while.

No, but if you hum a few bars I might be able to wing it.

I used to play a little. A friend taught me how to play. That was almost 30 years ago.

I can make legal moves. I can also blunder. What's your opinion of the Danish Gambit? Will it help me to win rapid games?

yes, I can. Won't win any tournaments though

Can you play chess?

  @Daniela1982 I have also played on Pogo, and it was enjoyable... Only won a very few times.

  @Bricealan Depends on what you were playing. I played cribbage a lot and I swear the games were fixed somehow because I got squat and they were getting 16 and 14 hands.
