Do you like to play Chess? It has become my main hobby, however I am not very good at it.
yeah chess is cool
I much prefer Checkers. I don't get why people don't like to play Checkers.
If only a woman's emotions were like Chess, black and white.
Yea I generally like it every once in a while, but playing against the computer gets boring after some time.
as I have said on these threads before it is a fucking stupid game that attracts low level thinkers and rain man spergs
I only like playing against the ai or old people, young chess players are dicks half the time.

they are though, 90% focused on black and 10% on white

Was amazing for my age group from like 6 to 11. Stopped playing. I'm garbage now. My pawn play is by far the worst part of my game.

No real reason to play the computer when lichess.org exists.

Somebody post that guy's FB pic. I don't have it saved.
Can you consistently get better at chess just by playing it and enjoying it on something like lichess?
Or is there a point where you won't progress unless you unleash your autism and spend hours each day studying openings and grandmaster games and all that boring shit.
>decide i want to be patrician and learn chess
>get a board and get my dad to play with me
>10 minutes in realize I'm too dumb for this
>flip the board over and start throwing pieces around

I broke 2000 within 6 months just playing but I'm chad thunderbrain YMMV.
>>26102350
you will get better playing but learning the basics will give you a huge advantage (I suck but I can beat non chess players)
>>26102350
It would take you a long time to plateau on lichess.org, and when you do you can simply switch to one of the more serious places like Internet Chess Cafe.
There are people who have achieved skill levels equivalent to a Grand Master by playing only internet chess.

checkers has already been solved.
Alright I have been playing a few games against the machine (on the lowest setting) on lichess after reading this thread this morning.
I'm really bad.
>>26102350
gotta read up about it.
I play on chess.com and have seen people play 100k games and still at 900 elo
I like to play Go, I'm fucking awful at it though.
>>26101178
I'm going to learn it one day
