KokiriChild | 1,682 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 (edited) Anyone here a fan of the logician's game? I love it, but I am quite bad. Still, it would be pretty fun to have a group that can play together and try to improve. Just checking if there would be any interest?

Makar | 2,192 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 It's been a while since I've played but I'm up for a game every now and then.

Hammerfestus | 4,291 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I used to play a bunch years ago. I got really into it for a bit but at this point I’ve pretty much forgotten all my openings and defenses and stuff. Really rusty but I’ve started playing again a bit. I use chess with friends. 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/4218-vgs-chess-club/#findComment-94634 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearcat-Doug | 5,220 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 (edited) I haven't played much in the last few years. I was better at speed chess than regular games. I played a lot of 1 minute games back in the day on Yahoo and was ranked fairly high, but I was 50/50 when it came to standard chess.

noiseredux | 232 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I feel like a 51 Worldwide Games chess club would be super fitting for this forum. Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/4218-vgs-chess-club/#findComment-94863 Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS4 has a number of chess programs, like Pure Chess and Chess Ultra. Chess Ultra even has a VR component. I used to play scholastic and adult tourneys in high school. Was way more into chess theory than actually playing, though.

Mega Tank | 1,291 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I have an account with Chess.com and it is free. There is a paid version which includes a bunch of extras but it depends how much you really want to analyze your game. I get into spurts of playing chess randomly throughout the year. I prefer speed chess. If anyone would like to play I wouldn't mind a match here or there.

KokiriChild | 1,682 Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 I can make a topic in the tabletop club if people want. Also, Chess.com is free and tries its best to give you an estimated FIDE rating, which is pretty neat. 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/4218-vgs-chess-club/#findComment-96136 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammerfestus | 4,291 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Speed chess is absolutely my downfall. I can usually hold my own in regular chess but speed chess just sucks every bit of ability out of me. Usually won’t play faster than 5min a side because beyond that I might as well be making random moves. 2 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/4218-vgs-chess-club/#findComment-96301 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do better making split second moves than I do when I have time to think about it.

Gloves | 12,983 Administrator · Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 One of the earliest things I learned when learning professional chess was "never trade". The person who initiates a trade is nearly ALWAYS giving away advantage. Simply NEVER initiate a trade and you'll almost instantly find your game improving.
