I love the game, but I consider myself an average player. Most people I know don't like the game, so I hardly ever get a chance to play with anybody else, but I do have a computer chess game that I am ok at (I can beat the computer on the middle setting, at least!)

Yes

I can be good, but only if I'm not under any time limit. I like spending hours contemplating one move. It does 2 things--piss your opponent off, and allows me to work out every possible scenario there is and react to it.

Hello. I came to talk. I've been thinking lately. About you and me. About what's going to happen to us, in the end. We're going to kill each other, aren't we? Perhaps later. I just wanted to know that I'd made a genuine attempt to talk things over and avert that outcome. Just once... I don't fully understand why ours should be such a fatal relationship, but I don't want your murder on my ... hands...

Hey that's cool I thought I was the only one who played chess here. I also consider myself an average chess player. Although I almost beat the head of my chess club, but I made a mistake in the endgame and it was a draw. If anyone wants to play online or talk chess let me know.You can play online at us chess live.com for free as long as you register as a guest, or chess.net.

Chess rules,

Fundamentally my strategy and technique differ from those of most people I confront. You see where I learned to play chess we emphisized attack more then defense. I still have that idea to this very day. I to was at the higher end of my chess club, but alot of that I think had to do with psychological intimidation and fear of me. You see I knew the 4 move checkmate and other people didn't
