A project conducted and concluded in the 4th of January, 1982 via the Institutions of Cassata (located in Beijing, China), worked on for approximately 9 years from 1973 to 1982, with 8 investigations being put into this research with approximately 783 participants, concluded that “nobody asked” about this certain opinion and/or fact. Multiple support was given for this project, about 3 million American USD dollars were put into the effort of researching this project. Our Cassata Institution Team has thoroughly worked day in and day out to find the result and the conclusion of this project. After all this work, we have decided that you are WRONG despite any of your opinions or any further evidence that you give us to prove that you are right. A further study conducted in 1977, 9th of Sepetember shows us that approximately 0 people asked about this certain opinion, when 56 other people were asking others about their certain opinion about the same topic that you are talking about. Global Peace Laws tell us at rule 1.82: “you may not force your opinions nor beliefs on other countries”. This applies HERE too, which is what we concluded in our study. You are forcing your opinions and/or facts onto other people. Which is why we concluded.. that nobody asked. I deeply thank you for understanding and I hope you appreciate out studies.

wdym what you said white has a chance to survive to i redirected you to message where white hung this

Bro this Indian guy let his time ran out when he was lost

[shrewd lily]

By the way, easy.

[grim edge]

That’s just a normal move

Idk why you’re flexing that

[shrewd lily]

Sacrificing a bishop, not pretty hard to see

Lemme show something complicated

[lime lava]

Imagine getting fowked

[grim edge]

Well you should be able to see the checkmate threat

[warm zodiac]

It's a good move. Depending on the level, it's tough to see.

[undone bridge]

Wtf I’m so scared rn I’m playing someone 500 elo below me and he isn’t making a move and I’m at 1 bar of connection if I lose 15 elo for bad wifi I

Dang I just found a goated tactic in a game

[wraith snow]

how is 500 intermiidate

[obtuse citrus]

why did bro resign

[vital magnet]

His pasta were done

[wraith snow]

Your still a begginer if your sub 1000

[keen parrot]

500 is what most ppl start at

[wraith snow]

I remmember being 500 i knew nothing back then i was around 8-9

[obtuse citrus]

i feel like beginner is until like 1200? but u could argue a lot of things

i just like 1200

[wraith snow]

yeah true

[clear sequoia]

Average rating is about 700-800

[wraith snow]

i think 1500 should be intermediate

[obtuse citrus]

lol

[grim edge]

Brilliant

How is this brilliant

[obtuse citrus]

i think 1400-1600 is still early intermediate

[wraith snow]

yeah

true

im only 1500

[nova verge]

If you wanna sky full of stars you ain’t gotta look too far

[wraith snow]

which is intermdiate

[obtuse citrus]

idk who but recently i heard someone say after 1600 strategy becomes like an actual thing

[placid oriole]

yeah 2000 is when you become a true intermediate

[wraith snow]

yeah i think so

[charred scroll]

i am questioning how do you even get that many inaccuracies and blunders

[clear sequoia]

1500 chess.com rapid is like top 4% of all active chess players. Very weird to say that the intermediate player is better than 96% of all players.

[grim edge]

I am bery nub

[obtuse citrus]

i mean a lot of those dont actually try to train

[keen parrot]

nah not really

[grim edge]

@clear sequoia how is this brilliant

[wraith snow]

Many people call me an intermediate player and im only 1400-1500

[civic temple]

Hello

[obtuse citrus]

you wouldnt say someone is an advanced footballer just because a lot of other people just play occasionally

[clear sequoia]

Absolutely, the vast majority's training consists of the occasional daily puzzle and watching TikTok videos.

But that doesn't mean those people should be neglected.

[obtuse citrus]

seems very reasonable

[placid oriole]

being ironic because 1600 being a early intermediate is crazy. What is 1800 then, a medium intermediate and 2000 being actually intermediate?

[brisk meteor]

okay google, what is en passant

[obtuse citrus]

what chess.com rating would 1400 fide be

[placid oriole]

I would say he's an advanced footballer if he can annihilate 99% of people

[mystic stream]

[grim edge]

@placid oriole how is this brilliant

[obtuse citrus]

i mean like generally

i know chess.com is higher but i have no clue

damnn

[clear sequoia]

For a move to be classified as brilliant on chess.com, there are three criteria:

1. The move must sacrifice material. Your move sacrifices a queen. ✅
2. The move must be good, although not necessarily the best. You are up a queen, two pieces, and a rook. Every legal move is good. ✅
3. You get more brilliant moves if your rating is lower than master level. You are roughly 1600 per your roles, so you get a bonus here too. ✅

[obtuse citrus]

i need some practice i guess whoops

[grim edge]

Alot of stuff in his position was under fire already so he couldnt think stright probably

man i defeated 10 2ks in blitz this week

incredible

this setting of -25 to infinite is the best thing

[clear sequoia]

I believe it's accounts who played at least one rated game in the last 30 days or something similar.

[random drum]

Hey doofus what do u think about pragg vs magnus?

[grim edge]

Pragg

ofc so i only face high rated players

[clear sequoia]

If everybody would set it nobody would find opponents …

[grim edge]

how did you think i gained 350 elo in 2 weeks lol

[grim edge]

does that make me advanced

[wraith snow]

-25 +200 is better

[grim edge]

pretty hard without it

anywhere in this discord to find a buddy to get better with?

[wraith snow]

I dont think so

[graceful lintel]

[placid oriole]

you made so many blunders that the game considered you "sacrificing" your bishop a brilliant

[grim edge]

true it took me months to even know its a option😭

[wraith snow]

I think anything under 1200 is begginer

[clear sequoia]

I think they're both great players, but Magnus is way stronger.

[random drum]

pragg making pressure on fabi and he is up one point. Broo

[wraith snow]

yeah

[obtuse citrus]

intermediate is always whatever level youre at

[random drum]

Yeah it is going to be amazing to see them in finals. It would be surprising if pragg defeats magnus loses but I am sure he will win

[grim edge]

its pretty funny it could lead to these matchups @clear sequoia

Get better

[wraith snow]

im 1500 and i sac my qeen thinking its a sac when in reailty its a blunder leading to checkmate in one

"If you see me back here I fell into temptation to come back unfortunately" that's what happened

[clear sequoia]

Ask in #💬〡improvement-talk .
Be sure to mention:

• What kind of training do you want to do (puzzles, games, books, opening preparation, just talking chess).
• Do you want to talk with a camera or just microphone?
• Which rating you are. Like I'm 1300, searching for somebody between 1200 and 1400. Make sure to have the same distance in both directions, do NOT ask for somebody between 1300 and 1500 if you are 1300.
• Which times fit. pro tip: Use https://hammertime.cyou/ for timezone-independent times, or at least least give the time & timezone. For example you could say I'm available on Mondays and Thursdays between <t:1692633600:t> and <t:1692651600:t>.

I think you learn most from people roughly your rating range. If it's significantly more than 200 points difference, then the opponent is just gonna be better at everything.

Hm

oh wait

are we talking about challenge or smth channel

[grim edge]

Hi not apathetic

[grim edge]

Oh yeah that very true!

[placid oriole]

thats how I learned to play better, when you play against better players you see what good positioning looks like and you learn to make fewer mistakes

[bright glade]

he right abt improvement tho

[grim edge]

Moiz

[dreamy siren]

You're right. I can't stand knowing so many people have gotten deceived so badly like this.

[random drum]

I like classical chess bcz It give me more time to think and I follow the advice that doofus gave me

[bright glade]

no

[clear sequoia]

It's really not secret, it's written in my profile status after all and visible.

But in the study groups, we want an atmosphere of focus. When we study in an open VC, inevitably people join looking for a game, wanting to chat, streaming themselves, or doing random inappropriate things.
In the private study group VC, everybody who joins knows the format, and is there to study.

it's a draw pragg got this one

[bright glade]

very

[grim edge]

its not a draw

i win in the end

[clear sequoia]

I seriously doubt it. You don't have a steady stream of income, lots of competition. And how much money do they charge per game, like 10 bucks?
Sure, you can make some money but I would strongly prefer a coaching job.

[random drum]

It is a classical tournament and they have blitz tiebreaks. players should prepare for classical , rapid or blitz ?

[placid oriole]

someone who's 2k rated started a chess school nearby me and he seems to be making a good amount of money. His main attraction is kids since parents want some free time

[random drum]

I don't like this rule

@clear sequoiaCan I become a gm only by playing classical chess?

[grim edge]

just wait till youre like 18

[clear sequoia]

Duck isn't titled though, but yes, 30$/h of coaching would be at the lowest end of what a coach makes. An FM or IM can easily charge 60$/h. Especially group sessions where you charge 20$/person can be very profitable.

[bright glade]

oh yeah i forgot that theres higher than that, duck is 2k, but that amount is impressive for me atleast whos never seen such pay in person

[keen parrot]

i found gms asking for 40 per hour, you just have to look outside of western countries

[random drum]

Nvm I can't be a GM

[lapis lava]

$30 an hour is a scam unless ur an IM at least

[random drum]

but still want to know

[lapis lava]

or any title

[hard gyro]

IMs/FMs charge 60$

[hasty iris]

for chess players yes but for parents to give their kids some babysitting + intellectual lessons

[placid oriole]

yeah $30 an hour seems expensive if you're 2000

[dusk sun]

But some are easier then other do you recommend some........

[lapis lava]

only in america

[clear sequoia]

You mean, without any puzzles or analysis? No, certainly not.

If you only ever play classical chess and not blitz or rapid: Sure, why not? Many GMs dislike blitz and rarely play it. However, blitz is helpful to get an understanding about many different positions, so you'll either have to acquire that knowledge on your own somehow (e.g. by reading books or analyzing master games), or you'll have a handicap.

[frosty fable]

tf does FM mean

blitz is also fun

[clear sequoia]

No, as a matter of policy I do no trecommend openings.

Makes sense

[keen parrot]

canty charges like 300, doesnt mean its normal

[bright glade]

extremely based

[frosty fable]

Danke

[bright glade]

opening principles >

[keen parrot]

if i start coaching i would charge maybe 25, which i think is reasonable

[dusty pagoda]

most people dont need more than FM

[indigo jetty]

@bright glade can we play a game

[frosty fable]

I still can't stop laughing about #😆〡chess-memes message 😭😭😭

[random drum]

Nahh I meant by blitz and rapid thing. but yeah got my answer thanks doofus

[torpid lintel]

Yes I guess I can still play that haha depend on what my opponent do

[bright glade]

no, and why did you ask me of all people as a new member of the server

[lapis lava]

i do $20/hr

[clear sequoia]

Minimum wage is about $15/h across countries. For one hour of good coaching there is usually at least one hour of preparation, communication, scheduling, bookkeeping etc. . So $30/h essentially equates to mininum wage. How can it possibly be a scam to charge minimum wage?

[bright glade]

whose alt are you

[hasty iris]

titled coach is good for 1200 CC and above and you can improve fast

below 1200 just get a random 1800 who is good at teaching

[lapis lava]

cause if you go to ICC youll find a serbian IM that charges $10/hr for coaching LOL

[hard gyro]

At one point, onions cost a fortune in India.

[hasty iris]

but then it's a serbian IM

[lapis lava]

only in the US do people think charging $30 for an hour of coaching as a 2k online blitz is normal

[blissful thorn]

hey, looking for a coach

[hasty iris]

2k players would benefit a lot from FM coahcing bruh wym

[placid oriole]

people in the US have different costs of living. 60k in the US is middleclass while 60k in serbia is rich

PRAGG DID IT

[hard gyro]

See, it's not a scam. It's just that different regions interpret the costs differently.

30$ is a lot in India, but not so much in US

[clear sequoia]

Yeah, but it's not a scam to offer a fair price.
That Serbian IM profits from a substantially lower cost of living. And honestly, having tried many such cheap coaches, their command of English, their caoching style, and htei rpreparation is often lacking.

[hasty iris]

the FMs u know must suck lol

[random drum]

Pragg vs magnus 🔥

[hard gyro]

Nice

Fabi must be heartbroken

[grim edge]

charge nothing

[random drum]

Pragg eliminated hikaru , arjun , fabi but Ik magnus is best so it will be tough

[hard gyro]

3 hours...

[hasty iris]

u said up to 2k on cc for FM coaching. i think even until 2300 CC it's still good to get coaching from an FM.

[random drum]

When I told you that Pragg will reach finals you called me mad for supporting player from my country but I was right haha

[brisk meteor]

hi! can anyone significantly higher rated than me (I am ~800 ) play one match with me and tell me where i can improve the most?

[hard gyro]

Did I? Lemme check one sec lmao

[hasty iris]

yeah do 100 puzzles a day and u will be 1200 in 2 weeks

[keen parrot]

its dumb to compare online ratings to titles

[brisk meteor]

not even kidding, i am doing like 100 puzzles a day right now. i have become a chess addict the last 2 weeks

[placid oriole]

stop playing 10 minute games and you will improve significantly 👍

[keen parrot]

i would say a FM is a good coach until maybe 2.1k-2.2k fide, depends on how good of a coach the FM is

[hasty iris]

ok i dont even have a FIDE rating 💀 how do i see if im suitable for coaching? bruh what u saying

[frosty fable]

& how is that?

[keen parrot]

an FM can coach anyone who doesnt have a fide, so your point is irrelevant

[random drum]

yeah ig

[compact mango]

when will be finals?

[brisk meteor]

how does noone wanna play me

[hard gyro]

Oh, that.

I didn't call you mad. I just said that Pragg has a long way to go, so you should curb your enthusiasm.

[hasty iris]

you probably missed the conversation cause u seem confused to what my point was

[compact mango]

when is finals?

[random drum]

tmrw game 1 and then game 2 day after tmrw

[lapis lava]

yeah sure ig some people really just think its just better to spend $300 hr for an american GM just cause he lives here instead of someone of the same level but 1/4 the price but lives in the EU

[compact mango]

alr

[random drum]

then tiebreaks

[random drum]

Yeah dw bro

[frosty fable]

Ayo what? Pragg won? What the hail??

[placid oriole]

because you will actually have time to think your moves. Short time games are meant for players who understand the fundamentals and rely mostly on intuition

[hasty iris]

200 a day and u are 1200 by the end of the week

[restive storm]

Pragg better beat Magnus

[hard gyro]

Yeah

[random drum]

Pragg eliminated fabi

[frosty fable]

10 min games work fine with me

[brisk meteor]

i will report back on sunday when i am 1200 rated

[hard gyro]

Pragg is just better

[placid oriole]

what's your rating and how many games played?

[frosty fable]

Ye, just had to double check

[restive storm]

Wrong
Fabi still has a third place match against Nijat Abasov

[random drum]

And Magnus is just best

[random drum]

yeah but bruh

[hard gyro]

For now.

[young gust]

need one player for an among us game anybody?

[pastel phoenix]

bro

Do bishops suck?

[restive storm]

Why bruh lol

[random drum]

He eliminated him from going to finals

[keen parrot]

this is why i dont play sicilian smh

[hard gyro]

But he's eliminated from going to the finals, innit?

[keen parrot]

30 moves of theory for a draw

[hasty iris]

good

[pastel phoenix]

Who agrees bishops suck?

[frosty fable]

Around 740 rn, not to mention I dropped from 1200 to 430 something &.... 435 games played (which I'm not so proud of..)

[random drum]

then maybe Indian youngsters in future but till magnus quits chess or dies. When magnus will die.It will be the most dark day in history of chess

[restive storm]

Yeah

[hard gyro]

They are snipers

[brisk meteor]

how can i not find anyone to play me in literally THE chess discord server anyone?

[pastel phoenix]

cc gave me a brillant for trading a bishop for a pawn

[restive storm]

At least he (probably) got the candidates spot since Magnus won’t play

[keen parrot]

meh im usually out of theory at like move 12

[proven thunder]

bishop on e17

[hard gyro]

Because you're sacrificing it. Doesn't mean that it sucks.

[random drum]

what do u think He will play ding ? nepo is there

[brisk meteor]

ignored again

[pastel phoenix]

but it loses yr advantage

[restive storm]

I’m always rooting for Fabi so I hope he does well

[hard gyro]

You can sacrifice a queen and get a brilliant move.

Does the queen suck?

[nova verge]

I am sitting at the dentist I can't play i am on mobile.

[pastel phoenix]

That's if you do that for mate

[brisk meteor]

good luck maybe some other time <3

[pastel phoenix]

If you do that like mine, it loses yr advantage

[random drum]

I like ding and magnus but yeah I will do support Indian players as I am Indian

[hard gyro]

No, you can just do it for winning material too.

[pastel phoenix]

From +9 to +5
