8 bit is cancer to the eyes

[median saffron]

BRO WHAT

8 bit is my fav

[uncut fable]

Imagine Capablanca reviving and seeing the 8-bit piece set

[graceful lintel]

My honest reaction after drewing in this position (I was white)

[graceful lintel]

Ong ded caht

[clear sequoia]

But I'll give you that 8bit is also pretty terrible.

[keen parrot]

why do the pieces have eyes

[grim edge]

They’re looking at me funny

[clear sequoia]

How else would they be looking at you without eyes?

What’s wrong with brilliant move algorithm

[severe oxide]

gives brilliants for simple sacs that require minimal calculation

[clear sequoia]

It's great as it is to motivate beginners. Very hard to make an algorithm that captures the essence of what humans call a brilliant move.

For improvement it's completely irrelevant.

[grim edge]

What if I paid them £100,000 to change it?

[keen parrot]

ill pay them double to keep it

[grim edge]

What if I pay them £400,000

[clear sequoia]

When? The last change I'm aware of was in October 2022, I believe.

[compact mantle]

Yea is that a problem?

[severe oxide]

they changed it to make more money

[keen parrot]

i collect 20% from chess.com for helping bargaining the price up and go on with my day

[dreamy siren]

Imo before it got changed about 2 years ago the algorithm was really good for it

[acoustic mason]

That long? Yikes I've been stuck at my elo longer than I thought. I really need to start improving

[grim edge]

Ok but now they’re my brilliant moves

[compact mantle]

That’s just your own interpretation of the term brilliant

[dreamy siren]

Well it shows that it misrepresents true brilliant chess. Something being simple and brilliant at the same time doesn't make any sense sense brilliant means something very impressive which would mean hard to find which contradicts it being simple

[acoustic mason]

The differences in interpretation is exactly what the problem is

[severe oxide]

such a difficult move to find 😱😱😱😱😱 so difficult and took me so much calculation

[compact mantle]

True brilliant chess isn’t defined by one person

Everyone has their own perspective

[keen parrot]

this is a pretty cool prep brilliant ngl, this whole line is sick

[acoustic mason]

[dreamy siren]

Well there's a clear inconsistency with game review because the coach bot says that the move wasn't easy to find so clearly they're trying to act like brilliant still means not easy to find while also having an algorithm that calls moves in tactical patterns they themself rate like 500 on puzzles

[acoustic mason]

Tldr

[umbral wind]

STOP LEAKING

[compact mantle]

Yeah, still let the people believe what they want, I don’t care if the website is giving you two perspectives of how to look at ‘brilliant’ moves

[keen parrot]

they dont know...

[dreamy siren]

I dont think it's good for the people to believe the misinformation I believe for their own good it's better they know the truth

[umbral wind]

After Qb3 is Bxa1 just forced?

[keen parrot]

yep its the best and only move

[acoustic mason]

There is no truth when it comes to brilliants. It's subjective

[compact mantle]

I respect that, but I think we truly should not care as everyone enjoys chess for different reasons

Not everyone aspires to get good

[acoustic mason]

If I were to play a game right now and make it to the endgame alive, that alone would be a brilliant move. It all depends on the context of the players/game

[compact mantle]

Some people just enjoy the validation of a computer’s evaluation system

[dreamy siren]

There's more reasons beyond just getting good. That can be one of the reasons but I feel like there are many potential negative problems with the brilliants algorithm and people believing them

[grim edge]

Yall recommend me music while playing casual chesd

[keen parrot]

if it was for getting good starky would be better

[grim edge]

Whats with this guy and brilliant ai system

[acoustic mason]

Exactly! I joke about my elo alot but I truly don't care about it. I enjoy playing at the level I play at, and find it goofy and entertaining when I get my blunders labeled as brilliant. My enjoyment from this game is a completely different experience to a lot of players

[dreamy siren]

Here's some reasons 1) I see someone get deceived I generally just think the right thing to do is to help the person realize they've been deceived 2) out of respect and fairness for anyone who plays equally or more impressive chess but doesn't get brilliants simply cause their moves didn't involve sacrifices 3) so the game of chess doesn't get tainted. The true beauty of all kinds of chess beyond just sacrificial chess people should learn to appreciate the true brilliance in 4) so people don't fall for the marketing scheme and buy premium based off the false idea that brilliants are super meaningful and worth it to see if you get them after every game cause in reality they're meaningless 5) If people keep sending brilliants there's likely to be people who are actually mean about it and bully/make fun of them for it (which isn't what I'm doing because what I'm doing is telling them the truth in a nice and civil way) but some people in the chess community just attack and bully people for sending brilliant moves rather than being helpful towards them which I don't want to happen to anyone 6) if someone really fell for this just by seeing a blue circle with a double exclam and a quote from a machine telling them they did something brilliant that's a sign that they're susceptible to being taken advantage of in general and they may get taken advantage of and deceived in a more serious way one day if they don't learn to be a lot more careful about what they believe and trust

Bro is getting help on an IQ test

I requested chill chess music reccomendation not sweaty halo gameplay music😭😭😭am sorry

Just trying to help the people realize the algorithm is flawed for their own good

Halo gameplay music? What?

It aint that deep

[dreamy siren]

Ok usually they know that but that doesn't refute any of my points

[acoustic mason]

There is but it's hard to put into words. Best hint I can give is symmetry

[primal fern]

Wtf man this is not a place for religion discussion

[compact mantle]

It refutes the point that ppl think they did something they didn’t

[acoustic mason]

Even that hint is terrible actually. Idk how to explain the pattern I saw

[acoustic mason]

But I wasn't that star thing

[toxic valley]

I have no idea why my opponents are this bad

[grim edge]

Try this

[dreamy siren]

They think they played brilliantly whatever that means when in reality they just made a basic calculation that happened to involve a sacrifice more often than not

[keen parrot]

dude stop doing the mensa online iq test, that shit aint worth much more than writing the number 180 on a piece of paper and saying its your IQ

[acoustic mason]

Unsure on that one but F is closest to what I expected

[grim edge]

What💀I'm not even taking I'm just posting the question

[compact mantle]

Yes, some uncommon finds like those are being encouraged

[grim edge]

Nah it's not f

[compact mantle]

Ppl look for tactics more bc brilliant evaluation exists

[acoustic mason]

Also, yes. IQ tests are cringe. The puzzles are fun, but the concept of the test overall is cringe

[compact mantle]

Probably that’s why lichess has players who play less for tactics

[toxic valley]

Who turned queen into witch

[acoustic mason]

B was my second guess but I dont see the pattern

[dreamy siren]

From what I've seen they try to make sacrifices work that simpley don't work in hopes of getting brilliant more so than it having a positive affect. I see them playing hope chess sacrifices then asking why it wasn't brilliant

[grim edge]

Nah not that

[acoustic mason]

I give up then

[grim edge]

Ok

[compact mantle]

Well that’s part of them, but not all

Also, if those people enjoy it, why not allow them

[dreamy siren]

I've given many reasons already

Also @compact mantle let me ask you... do you think they'll realize the algorithm is flawed eventually?

[compact mantle]

Most of them do

[keen parrot]

guys the hecking algorithmo is flawed!! we need to inform the NPCs guys

[dreamy siren]

Ok so most of them would've learned either way meaning they'll be disappointed at some point so with the enjoyment comes eventual disappointment so it's really not all that good in that way either

[grim edge]

You're a skibidi npc from ohio

[compact mantle]

No they won’t be disappointed bc they don’t care

[dreamy siren]

I thought we were talking about people who enjoy the brilliants. If they enjoyed it they obviously care about it

[compact mantle]

Yes they care abt it showing up, not the level of brilliancy

[manic nova]

A

[grim edge]

anyone wanna play bullet?

[dreamy siren]

That doesn't make sense though. If someone knows the algorithm is flawed and doesn't represent brilliant chess properly why would they care about them? It just doesn't add up

[graceful lintel]

There's so many sources of happiness that don't involve getting deceived

The thing about it is there's so many ways to get happiness that don't involve getting emotionally manipulated or deceived...

in chess itself

From simply winning games
A nice steak of results
A nice upset win
A nice game in general
Among more

And just in life in general

watching a funny video
Watching a movie
Going to an amusement park
Hanging out with friends
Among many more...

And I've explained why I disagree. Like for example smoking cigarettes makes people happy but I think overall it's not good in the grand scheme of things. Similarly I believe that even though brilliants make people happy in a moment it's not good in the bigger picture

[acoustic mason]

Jesus are we still arguing over brilliants?

[dreamy siren]

Huh??????

[digital phoenix]

side quests

[acoustic mason]

I'm saying there's no harm in brilliants. It's exactly the same thing as getting an achievement in a game. It's just a dopamine rush, nothing more to it. It's just a computer saying "yo that was cool well done". Game review rarely gives constructive feedback anyway, regardless of the badge assigned to it

[keen parrot]

side quest: find 100 brilliants

[dreamy siren]

I've explained multiple times what I think the harm is with these brilliants

[acoustic mason]

I know

I'm saying I don't agree

I'm not saying it's specifically a good tool. I personally think it's useless (like game achievements) but they don't cause harm. It's just something to make you feel good

[dreamy siren]

You aren't my teacher so idk why you're asking me this nor do I want to even entertain it

[acoustic mason]

And ignorant mario players will think collecting coins is the main goal of mario games

[dreamy siren]

Ok but I've explained why I believe they cause harm so make counter-points to my arguments as to why they cause harm cause just saying they cause no harm is unproductive in getting your point across to me since I believe there is harmful aspects of it

Tbh I think if 2 players rated 500 for example.

500 A: plays 1,000 rapid 15+10 games and analyzes them all with the engine itself not the game review and just explores the lines with stockfish itself to analyze and try to figure out stuff they did wrong and analyze ideas

500 B: plays 1,000 rapid 15+10 games and only uses chess.com game review and the features within it and never uses the engine itself to analyze

Id estimate that by the end of those 1,000 games 500 A is minimum of 500 points rated higher than 500 B

[dreamy siren]

Obviously not it was an educated guess and just an estimate. Do you want data to backup the idea that if you teach a kindergarten class that 2+2=10 that they'll believe that 2+2=10? Or do you think we can just know that based off logic?

[primal mirage]

what?

On chess.com, what’s your account?

can you believe him

[primal mirage]

london on top

[grand shore]

at least he is laughing

[umbral wind]

True at least he’s happy

[dreamy siren]

The guess is based off the fact that with game review they'd just get a bunch of arbitrary adjectives and vague quotes programmed for the coachbot to say to them while the person who uses the engine itself will actually be able to see the line that was best and explore different possibilities and see what the engine says which is a much deeper dive into getting the truth out of your analysis of tour games

We need a very specific scenario and no foul play at all. We need 2 people both 500 and willing to do it without breaking the rule even once

[zinc hound]

Brilliant moves on chesscom misrepresent reality often. The way the algorithm for brilliant moves works is that it pretty much calls moves that are a sacrifice that is at least fine brilliant even though in reality they often are like 2 or 3 move calcutions that aren't hard to find in reality. The fact to the matter is some sacrifices that work aren't that impressive to find and some good moves that aren't sacrifices are impressive to find but chesscom doesn't represent that properly at all. Please don't become another one of the thousands if not millions who has been brainwashed into believing this stuff. I don't want you to get confused and have your chess suffer as a result. ™

oh okay

[acoustic mason]

I think I recognise it from a copy pasta so idk what the actual origin is tbh

[fierce pivot]

@thorny lake here are my notes for you
-engine in the middlegame gets mad at you because you left your d pawn hanging but considering white was kinda stupid and kept playing on the a file you can get away with that, but thats where your mistakes and inaccuracies are
-playing bd4 didn't gain you much, you're not even pinning his knight, just threatening it and leaving your bishop in a vulnerable and horrible position in terms of movement

[keen parrot]

i remember it being a white dude who forgot to switch to his alt on twitter

[fierce pivot]

i pressed enter too early oops

[keen parrot]

but I'm not 100

[acoustic mason]

Oh right yeah I think you're right

[thorny lake]

here the best move is to take the knight but in some cases best move is bh5

[keen parrot]

The bishop doesnt really belong on g4 imo

[umbral wind]

exchange caro and Bg4?

[keen parrot]

f5 better

[umbral wind]

vimun knows

[thorny lake]

hmm aight

[umbral wind]

oh i thought you meant pawn f5 nvm he doesnt

[keen parrot]

Why the f5 pawn?

[raven dock]

now whose bonglord

[grim edge]

Am back what did i miss

[keen parrot]

not much

[severe oxide]

@grim edge

[fierce pivot]

-then you took that knight, it is an equal trade of material but it doesn't really gain you anything gameplay wise. you could've played just fine by activating your rooks instead of that trade off
-he left his f pawn hanging and your rook could've taken that for free on move 20 but oh well
-moves 21-28 are great plays so no notes there
-move 29, you just gave away your pawn and allowing his pawns to make advances onto your other pieces
this is your blunder of the game (you also gave him a great move by taking with his h pawn)
-move 35 was lovely, that rook move is very precise :)
-move 37 king move was also great for all your pieces involved and making your pawn able to promote later
-move 44, kc4, right on top of his mistake and giving yourself a positional advantage as well

.. 2400 and 2700 elo are huge differences

[zinc hound]

man im 570 but not to brag i almost beat the martin bot

[fierce pivot]

huh you're 1300

[keen parrot]

i would say the gap is like 200, i should easily be in the 2500s rn

[acoustic mason]

If we're all flexing, then I got Martin to stalemate me once

[grim edge]

It was satire.

[fierce pivot]

man i remember losing against that thing once, shameful

[grim edge]

Sis i got martin to checkmate me and i habe the pic as proof..but no image perms

[acoustic mason]

Skill issue

[fierce pivot]

like a week after i started chess, i didnt know you could have pieces stick to the king if they were defended. so when he did that i was :0

[zinc hound]

martin like never misses m1 or m2

[raven dock]

why you aint then? you dont play much ?

[acoustic mason]

Yeah stalemate is more impressive for martin tbh

[keen parrot]

i was in a bad mood and dropped like 100

tbh i might get it back today

[umbral wind]

vimun is normally mid 2500's

[grim edge]

Why dont u get a tittle if ur 2100 rated in fide

[fierce pivot]

play a game with me its free elo

[umbral wind]

i dropped to 2590 once doesnt mean thats my rating

[keen parrot]

cause you need 2200

[upbeat viper]

Title is 2200

Ye

[grim edge]

Isnt there a tittle for 2000

[zinc hound]

[raven dock]

[zinc hound]

Chess is sexist

[grim edge]

I have a chance

[fierce pivot]

nah it makes perfect sense that way

[acoustic mason]

I'm not even joking. I struggled to actually lead him into it (as in, he stalemated me, not me stalemating him)

[raven dock]

you didnt have any chess account before this one?

[keen parrot]

"ill cashapp you 30$ rn if you resign

[acoustic mason]

Can you give the answer when you submit. I'm genuinely curious

[raven dock]

yeah I am just built like that

[fierce pivot]

considering the race of the people and the cars and the plants id say zambia or niger?

[keen parrot]

both dont have geoguessr footage

aka google street view

so that narrows it down by a lot

[fierce pivot]

oh yeahh idk what the ordeal is sorry, are we playing full out geoguessr or are we just looking at pics or

[acoustic mason]

Niger does I think, but not sure on zambia

[fierce pivot]

rwanda maybe?

[keen parrot]

nigeria has

[acoustic mason]

Im sure I recall seeing Niger on one of those flowchart things for metagaming

[fierce pivot]

nigeria does yes

im very good at asian/european geoguessing but otherwise i am very down the drain

[grim edge]

WHAT

[fierce pivot]

i creeped out my ex bf leading to our breakup because i geoguessed all his travel photos down to the T

[grim edge]

Oh mb

[nimble niche]

the host loves giving unofficial coverage rounds

[grim edge]

Heard it wrong

[acoustic mason]

No you were right, I was mixing it up with Nigeria my bad

[keen parrot]

yea, but i still dont think those countries have any coverage at all

[acoustic mason]

Nah they don't I looked it up

[fierce pivot]

which also lead to me geoguessing spain in one of them, finding exactly where he was, and also lead to finding the place he was with the girl he cheated on me with 🗿

[acoustic mason]

Yeah this was just buried in my files I haven't played for a while

[fierce pivot]

@keen parrot wanna know the funniest part

[keen parrot]

what is it

[fierce pivot]

before our relationship even started he told me i looked like that girl. so i hated her from the beginning and told her to back off, but he chose the rich girl that had a nice house in spain over the palestinian girl, so i guess fair play lol

[keen parrot]

hes just an asshole for that tbh

[fierce pivot]

he really is man it was very upsetting. 2 years for nothing, and it made me start chess lmao

[keen parrot]

now u gotta get better than him
