Gtg bye

[neon pond]

bye

[solid schooner]

bye

do we all agree on Nd3?

@peak plank NO ENGINE THIS TIME

[peak plank]

im not dw

[solid schooner]

I think it must be Nd3

[compact mantle]

Qg5?

[solid schooner]

or g6 first

[solid schooner]

nice one

[neon pond]

g6 loses the knight no?

[solid schooner]

but there is f6

[solid schooner]

yea idk

[compact mantle]

Yeah lemme see how that ends up

[solid schooner]

the knight is hanging

ok Nd3 must be our first move

DO WE ALL AGREE?

Y/N?

[robust mirage]

y

[solid schooner]

+1

[abstract mantle]

https://tenor.com/view/markiplier-fire-fnaf-3-ending-hospital-disaster-gif-1976739374427047349

[neon pond]

i dont see what white can do after nd3

[solid schooner]

+2

we need 1-2 more votes

@compact mantle @peak plank y/n?

[robust mirage]

bro just do it

[solid schooner]

on Nd3

[neon pond]

lol

[honest drift]

Obviously nd3 lol

[neon pond]

damn

[compact mantle]

I think it has to be sound

[robust mirage]

@solid schooner whats ur elo

[solid schooner]

2230 cc

[compact mantle]

Im expecting Re3 maybe

hxg first also works

[solid schooner]

Kg7 only move

[honest drift]

Kg7

[compact mantle]

Ye

[neon pond]

only move

[robust mirage]

take

[solid schooner]

guess what

[neon pond]

wrong? x.x

[compact mantle]

Re3?

[solid schooner]

lol

[compact mantle]

Oh lmao

[honest drift]

F5 then

Play f5

[compact mantle]

Or f6

Nvm

[honest drift]

My puzzle rating is 2450 I should hv solved this

[solid schooner]

this is 300 rated puzzle

i am 3400 in cc

[honest drift]

Nf4 wins

[neon pond]

Rg8?

[honest drift]

Ur worse then me lol

[compact mantle]

Yes Nf4 looks good

[solid schooner]

maybe

here

[neon pond]

not a free rook?

[solid schooner]

you are down a queen cant trade

Bf6 sounds good

or Ne2

Rd8 ideas are also present

[neon pond]

what after bf6

[solid schooner]

Kg8 i assume

[compact mantle]

Rd8 seems most logical

[solid schooner]

yea

but at the same time it is a puzzle

[compact mantle]

Ra8-d8 ofc

[compact mantle]

It is a lc puzzle tho

[solid schooner]

true

[compact mantle]

Might bot be too crazy tactical

[solid schooner]

lets calc first

Rad8

[compact mantle]

Qe3?

[honest drift]

Rad8 too slow

[solid schooner]

i was thinking that

[compact mantle]

White’s move?

[solid schooner]

but it is logical because it is lc puzzle

[compact mantle]

You have a clear threat

It’s concrete

Why is it too slow

[solid schooner]

maybe Bf6 first Ne2 and then Rad8?

[compact mantle]

Bf3 you mean right

[honest drift]

Yeah I had 2500 there currently 2450

[solid schooner]

yea

[compact mantle]

Bf6 seems weird

Ah okay

[compact mantle]

But that is the same, but with less tension and move order ideas

[solid schooner]

yea

but move order mattera

[honest drift]

This one is hard

[solid schooner]

yea lol

[ancient zodiac]

my head hurts, I can't beat Soccer Magnus

[honest drift]

Nxe2 seems correct

[compact mantle]

Like Ne2 immideately is also strong after Rad8 instead of Bf3

[honest drift]

By intuition

[compact mantle]

Maybe

[solid schooner]

Bf6 and Rad8 are logical

[honest drift]

It's not rad8 first

[compact mantle]

Nxe2

[honest drift]

Too slow

Nxe2 by intuition looks good

[nimble niche]

Rf3 Rxc3

[solid schooner]

i think it is 2 versus 1 on Bf6 vs Rad8

[compact mantle]

Re3?

[solid schooner]

so i am playing Bf6

[honest drift]

Nxe2 probably

[compact mantle]

Nah the other guy said Ne2

[solid schooner]

ohh alright

lets calc

[honest drift]

Nxe2, rad8

[ancient zodiac]

Hey, how did you beat soccer magnus?

[honest drift]

Maybe good

[compact mantle]

I didn’t

[solid schooner]

the move order is soo idiotic

[honest drift]

Go nxe2

[solid schooner]

Nxe2 Nxe2

[ancient zodiac]

You can't?

[honest drift]

Has to be it

[solid schooner]

Rad8

[compact mantle]

I haven’t found out if I can

[honest drift]

Or bf6 first for some reason?

Bf3 I mean

[compact mantle]

Bf3+?

[honest drift]

OK good

[ancient zodiac]

Just try for once

[solid schooner]

now here it gets confusing

[ancient zodiac]

And so that you can help me hahahahaha

[honest drift]

I got 1 right

[compact mantle]

I could, why?

[honest drift]

Rad8 tho

[compact mantle]

Seems logical

[ancient zodiac]

I am having a hard time playing against Soccer Magnus

[honest drift]

Rad8, qc2 rxf2?

[solid schooner]

agreed

[honest drift]

Go for that

[compact mantle]

If Qe3

[solid schooner]

Rf2 now?

[ancient zodiac]

I am able to beat those first-two magnus but the third one is too much for me

[honest drift]

Then rdd8

[compact mantle]

Bf3+ and Rde8

[honest drift]

C pawn doesn't allow any checks

[compact mantle]

I see

[honest drift]

Rxf2

[solid schooner]

ight

[neon pond]

take f2?

[compact mantle]

Ohh, what’s it’s elo?

[ancient zodiac]

Is this cheating

[solid schooner]

guess what

[neon pond]

...

[ancient zodiac]

1,500 elo

[compact mantle]

We’re solving puzzles hehe

[solid schooner]

we solved it! for the first time

[compact mantle]

Ah okay

[honest drift]

I'm so good

[neon pond]

wooo

[ancient zodiac]

Awww

[honest drift]

I solved it easy gg

[compact mantle]

Nice one

[solid schooner]

what to d....

[honest drift]

First move a 600 can tell

[novel moat]

There aren't really other options

[ancient zodiac]

I have already played 20-25 games against Magnus Soccer but it seems like I can't really beat him

[compact mantle]

I think the way to beat 1500 bots is play solidly, don’t try to play too sharp variations out of the opening and keep your pieces guarded, take space and let him make mistakes by putting his pieces in bad spots and giving away pawns

Of course one of many ways, but that might help you the most

[solid schooner]

do we agree it is not Ra2?

[ancient zodiac]

What should I do if there's a 2 pawns facing in my 2 pawns at the center? Should I take it?

[novel moat]

I dont understand Ra2

[ancient zodiac]

I notice his in-game pattern is repetitive

[solid schooner]

my instict is telling me Bc3

[solid schooner]

it is NOT Ra2

it is keeping the rook safe

[compact mantle]

If you can calculate it through, leave the pawns there let him take

[novel moat]

Yeah I don't know why it needed to be said out loud

[ancient zodiac]

I thought you'll be on disadvantage if your opponent takes control at the center?

[solid schooner]

some might want to save the rook

@honest drift @neon pond you guys are silent so far

[compact mantle]

Well if he takes you take back, developing a piece, or putting back a pawn in the centre

[honest drift]

I was attending my class

Send puzzle ima solve

[ancient zodiac]

Okay, brilliant

[ancient zodiac]

thank you

[compact mantle]

Best of luck!

[honest drift]

Bc3 looks good

[ancient zodiac]

Thanks!

[solid schooner]

yea that's what i was also thinking

[compact mantle]

I agree

[solid schooner]

guess what

[compact mantle]

Bc3 looks tasty fr

[solid schooner]

INCORECT

[compact mantle]

Nooi

[novel moat]

Bro how is it Bc3

[honest drift]

Yeah OK I kinda felt it was weird

[novel moat]

You can all do better

[honest drift]

You aren't doing anything tho

[novel moat]

[compact mantle]

Jt works if he takes c2 yeah

[ancient zodiac]

Pawn d4
Horse f6

What to play next?

[solid schooner]

lol

[ancient zodiac]

I'm white

[solid schooner]

lol we all looked at the sae line

[compact mantle]

Do you know any opening theory?

[ancient zodiac]

He suddenly change his opening dudeee

[solid schooner]

the move is

[honest drift]

Maybe just b2

[solid schooner]

Rd1...

[ancient zodiac]

I just know the king indian defense

[honest drift]

Rd1 tf

[ancient zodiac]

Which is hard to developed

[novel moat]

That's dank

[honest drift]

I saw it it looked stupid

[compact mantle]

And for white?

[compact mantle]

Or are you black

[ancient zodiac]

I'm white here

[compact mantle]

So I suggest going for either c4 or Bf4 here

[honest drift]

Rxe2 maybe

[compact mantle]

On move 2

[honest drift]

Rgxe2

[solid schooner]

that's the most logical

[ancient zodiac]

C4 pawn?

[honest drift]

Yeah it has to be that

[compact mantle]

Yes

[honest drift]

Qc7 wait lemme Calc qc7

[solid schooner]

there are no other moves either

[ancient zodiac]

He played G6

[compact mantle]

Qc7 is interesting

[honest drift]

Oh qc7 doesn't work

[solid schooner]

it doesnt

[honest drift]

Cuz of re4

[compact mantle]

Well you know that opening right?

[solid schooner]

Rd6 right?

[honest drift]

OK play rgxe2

[compact mantle]

Nc3

[solid schooner]

oh i meant Re6

[honest drift]

No rd4 defends

[ancient zodiac]

Pawn d4
Horse f6
Pawn c4
Pawn g6

[honest drift]

Re4 I mean

[honest drift]

Play rxge2 and it is correct

[solid schooner]

Re3

[honest drift]

Hmm ok

[solid schooner]

is what i think

[ancient zodiac]

Bot's opening?

[compact mantle]

Nc3

[honest drift]

Yeah re3 looks winning

[ancient zodiac]

What is N?

[compact mantle]

Yeah unless he goes d5 now

[solid schooner]

knight'

[compact mantle]

Knight

[honest drift]

Yeah it's re3

You eventually queen they can't defend

[solid schooner]

incorrect...

[honest drift]

..

[ancient zodiac]

Pawn d4
Horse f6
Pawn c4
Pawn g6
Horse c3
Pawn d5

[compact mantle]

Qd4

[normal hatch]

Grunfeld!

[compact mantle]

No way💀

[normal hatch]

cxd5

[ancient zodiac]

Am i doomed

[normal hatch]

Nxd5 Na4

[compact mantle]

I don’t know theory in gruenfelt

[normal hatch]

Take the pawn

[novel moat]

Grunfeld my baby girl

[normal hatch]

With the c-pawn

[honest drift]

Qf3 ?

[ancient zodiac]

He takes mine too

[compact mantle]

Then play e4

[normal hatch]

With the knight?

[solid schooner]

Qf3

[honest drift]

Yeah qf3 gg

[compact mantle]

Lmao bruh

[normal hatch]

no, Play Na4!

[normal hatch]

You never know bro

Qxd5

[honest drift]

Qf3 they can't attack our queen, rook is pinned , knight is pinned

[compact mantle]

I put this in chat yesterday lol, caught unity’s dumbass

[honest drift]

Qf2 doesn't work cuz ng4

[viscid jacinth]

Hi

[honest drift]

I'm having fun today solv8ng puzzles

Bunking maths class tho

[ancient zodiac]

Pawn d4
Horse f6
Pawn c4
Pawn g6
Horse c3
Pawn d5
Take
Take
Horse c3

[novel moat]

Puzzles are basically math

[ancient zodiac]

I'll take his horse?

[solid schooner]

dms pls

[ancient zodiac]

Oh, I'm sorry

[novel moat]

How does horse go to c3

[normal hatch]

Believe

[novel moat]

[solid schooner]

Qh6 right?

al of us agree with Rg7?

[honest drift]

Qh6

[compact mantle]

Qh6 Rg8 Rg7 Bf5 Rh7 Bh7 Bd3

[solid schooner]

yes

[honest drift]

Easy

[solid schooner]

LOL

LOOOOOL it is not Qh6

[honest drift]

Wow

[compact mantle]

No way

[random drum]

u are ass ran

[solid schooner]

grunfield

[normal hatch]

Only one move

[random drum]

no way

[ancient zodiac]

What's a grunfield

[compact mantle]

bxc is theory

[normal hatch]

Grunfeld is the opening

[honest drift]

Queen sac then idk tbh

[normal hatch]

Take back the pony

[solid schooner]

Qh5 was the move

[honest drift]

OK this one was too hard

[random drum]

Horse = Knight and in chess we write it as "N" if u put knight on f6 square then Nf6 if take something on f6 square then "Nxf6"

[honest drift]

Ima dip

[compact mantle]

Why doesn’t Qh6 work

[solid schooner]

and it went..

Rxc3

[random drum]

opening

[honest drift]

Cuz bf5 counterplay

[solid schooner]

Bd3!!!

[nimble niche]

Qh5 mentioned

[random drum]

anyone wanna play blindfol in chat?

[honest drift]

Wayward incoming

[random drum]

I'll play with white

[solid schooner]

Nf5

[novel moat]

Qh6 Nf5

[random drum]

1)e4

[compact mantle]

Ah ofc

[solid schooner]

these are 3000 rated puzzles

so dont be shy to calc 10 moves ahead

[compact mantle]

I hate this

[solid schooner]

yea looks stupid

g3 g4 or Kf3

[compact mantle]

You guys have the same first instinct of g3?

[random drum]

@ancient zodiac https://www.chess.com/terms/chess-notation check this out for notation

[solid schooner]

yea for some reason

[compact mantle]

Ah yeah Kf3 might be too slow

[solid schooner]

but at the same time

[compact mantle]

Bc he creates a passer on the h file quickly

Or we have f3 idk

[novel moat]

You could play f3 to prevent ?

[compact mantle]

Yes

[honest drift]

Kf3 probably

I'm trash at endgames if it's wrong don't blame me

[solid schooner]

haha

we gotta calc it is not hard

just takes a lot of time

start with g3

[honest drift]

G3 looks wrong idk why

[compact mantle]

Kb5 prob

[novel moat]

g3 Kb5 or Ka4 i don't think we're getting anywhere

[solid schooner]

idk why but Kf3 feels natural yet wrong

[honest drift]

Is it wrong?

Kf3 to me seems like the only move

[compact mantle]

We can’t play g3 bc we can’t take on f3 then

[solid schooner]

didnt try yet

[honest drift]

Plau kf3

Trust me

[compact mantle]

I think it’s Kf3

[solid schooner]

ok

L guys it was not Kf3

[compact mantle]

Kb5

[novel moat]

[compact mantle]

I think he might make a passer

[solid schooner]

it was g3 should have listened to me

[honest drift]

OK

[compact mantle]

If Kf3

[honest drift]

I told u I'm trash at endgamez

[solid schooner]

it was g3

[compact mantle]

Damn🤣

[solid schooner]

Kb5

and then....

guess the move

[compact mantle]

I mean Kd3 is forced yes

[solid schooner]

lol kf3...

[compact mantle]

Huhhhh

[novel moat]

Pawn race ig

[solid schooner]

not even that

[compact mantle]

Bruh I rejected this 5 mins ago💀

[solid schooner]

afterKc4 it is Ke3

there was no way anyone would have found this line

after Kc3 it was f4

[compact mantle]

You wanna take and push the f pawn

Yeah ofc

[compact mantle]

But I mean giving black the passer is stupid 💀

[solid schooner]

do we all agree on f5?

[compact mantle]

Probably

This one seems easy

[novel moat]

Hmm

[solid schooner]

f5 h4

[honest drift]

F5 ig

Stopping ng4 forever

[compact mantle]

h4?

[honest drift]

E3 now

[compact mantle]

e3?

Bruh

[solid schooner]

idk about that

[compact mantle]

He’s not stopping anything

[solid schooner]

based on previous puzzles

[honest drift]

E3 gg

[compact mantle]

U can queen for free

[honest drift]

This one is concrete trust

[compact mantle]

How do you stop it

[solid schooner]

no

[honest drift]

He can't stop promotion

[solid schooner]

there is Nf7

he can i think it is Kf6

[honest drift]

Nf7 u just kf6

[compact mantle]

Kf4

[solid schooner]

Kg5

[compact mantle]

Why Kf6

[solid schooner]

Ng5 sry

[honest drift]

Kf6 he can't come back in time

[solid schooner]

he can

[honest drift]

Oh yeah

[compact mantle]

e2 Nf3 lol

[solid schooner]

it is Kf6

i think

agree?

[honest drift]

Yeah kf6 first maybe

[compact mantle]

Why not Ke6

[dusty urchin]

Get your queen back

[solid schooner]

good question

i think it is g5

[honest drift]

Go kf6

[solid schooner]

g5 might be problem

Kf6 and puzzle ended i was right

[compact mantle]

Could be

Nice

[desert nimbus]

is this a draw?

oh Kf6 nice move

[compact mantle]

Black wins

[desert nimbus]

yea i see

[solid schooner]

gold coin game vibes if you know you know

[compact mantle]

Haha Qxh3 shocking the audience

[solid schooner]

lol

[novel moat]

gxh3 and worry later

[solid schooner]

it was Qg3

[honest drift]

Gzh3

[novel moat]

[desert nimbus]

free horsie

[compact mantle]

Yeah I remember

[honest drift]

What r these puzzles

[novel moat]

I see a free horse I capture

[desert nimbus]

exactly

[solid schooner]

they are 3000 rated ones

[honest drift]

Gxh3 what d9es black play

[compact mantle]

Rd4

[solid schooner]

yea

Qh6 ideas dont work

[digital phoenix]

Qg5

[solid schooner]

so maybe Rf1?

[compact mantle]

Rd1?

[solid schooner]

he is joking

[novel moat]

[digital phoenix]

what

[compact mantle]

Oh🤣

[digital phoenix]

oh yeah theres check

[desert nimbus]

chat gpt

[digital phoenix]

but why would u do that

[novel moat]

Qxf2

[compact mantle]

For mate

[solid schooner]

Rf1 give me other ideas?

[digital phoenix]

rude

[nimble niche]

Qf4

fork

[compact mantle]

Chess is a rude game

[solid schooner]

give me other good ideas

@honest drift Rf1?

[desert nimbus]

Rd2?

d2*

[compact mantle]

See Rd2 seems solid

[solid schooner]

intesesting idea

[compact mantle]

But it’s passive

[nimble niche]

Re2 indeed

[glossy radish]

eat the goddamn rook

[lyric brook]

Qb3+ ? idk

[desert nimbus]

:(

[compact mantle]

Puzzles are not passive

[solid schooner]

nah

[compact mantle]

9/10 times

[solid schooner]

lichess puzzles are

[compact mantle]

Fair

[nimble niche]

take the rook promote and Qh6 maybe

[compact mantle]

Rd2 is what I’d probably end up playing in classical

[solid schooner]

you are onto something

[desert nimbus]

Qxd8 and Rf7 at the end

[solid schooner]

no but Rf7 is there

[novel moat]

But taking the rook and then promoting cant he play dxe3

[solid schooner]

yea

[desert nimbus]

my first instinct was that but ...

there should be a forced sequence

[compact mantle]

It hasn’t fully been rejected

[solid schooner]

DEBATABLE

[nimble niche]

how about promote first then take the rook

[solid schooner]

the ideas that are rejected are taking the rook and Qb3

[compact mantle]

Seems good actually

[desert nimbus]

we are not in time though

[compact mantle]

But Rf7 still

[desert nimbus]

Rdxd8

[solid schooner]

promote first Rdd8 yea

[desert nimbus]

and then?

[solid schooner]

maybe Rd2 actuallu

[compact mantle]

Rxd8

[desert nimbus]

Qxd8

[compact mantle]

And Qe5

[desert nimbus]

interesting

[compact mantle]

No more Rf7

[desert nimbus]

Qd1+

[compact mantle]

Kg2

[desert nimbus]

Qf3+

xD white resigns

[compact mantle]

Whoop

[solid schooner]

what's the conclusion

[desert nimbus]

idk Rd2 xD

[novel moat]

I just can't believe the solution would be that slow

[desert nimbus]

I didnot find it

[desert nimbus]

yeah it's weird

we are missing something

[honest drift]

Was agk

Afk

[desert nimbus]

oh wait

we are idiots

[compact mantle]

d8Q Rdxd8 Qb3?

[desert nimbus]

in that Rf7 line

[compact mantle]

Idk

[desert nimbus]

takes and then Qxh7+ is winning

[compact mantle]

Oh ye

Wait how did that line go

[desert nimbus]

d7d8Q Rdxd8 Rxd8 Qxd8 Qh6 Rf7 Rxf7 Kxf7 Qxh7+

this should be the line

[solid schooner]

so d8?

[desert nimbus]

idk which first

[compact mantle]

Qh6 Qd1+

[solid schooner]

rook or queen?

[desert nimbus]

should be promotion

[novel moat]

But Qh6 Qd1 and you lose

[compact mantle]

Your own thing

[desert nimbus]

you donot have that

[compact mantle]

Why

[desert nimbus]

wait

uh im a idiot

[compact mantle]

Yeah I do

[desert nimbus]

ahhhh jess

[compact mantle]

That’s why I was so confused

[grim edge]

so called "free thinkers" when :3

[compact mantle]

How we got to the Qh6 idea

[desert nimbus]

is it Qb3+ Kh8 Rf7?

in that line

after promoption takes and takes

[compact mantle]

Why

[desert nimbus]

idk seems good atleast

[solid schooner]

tf this is a real puzzle

[lyric brook]

Rxd4, exd4, Qe8, (Rxe8, dxe8+ promotion to a queen, Qf8, Qe6+, Kh8, Qxh5+, and white is winning.) Qf7, Qxf7+, Rxf7, d8+ promotion to a queen, Rf8, Qd5+, and white is winning.

[compact mantle]

Can’t he just go Qe8

[lyric brook]

hope those are some good ideas

[desert nimbus]

nah

idk

[compact mantle]

My final vote is Rd2

[solid schooner]

Qe8 really?

[desert nimbus]

oh yeah

[solid schooner]

Qf2

[compact mantle]

Bro forgot abt his own king

[icy wyvern]

chess

[desert nimbus]

how about Qxf2

[solid schooner]

yea lol

[desert nimbus]

after Qe8

[solid schooner]

yea

[desert nimbus]

it's mate in 2

[solid schooner]

repetition at minimum

[lyric brook]

welp. i didnt see the mate. wasted 10 mins on that haha

if the mate threat wasnt there, it would have been good for white

[solid schooner]

nah it would have been a draw

white's winning

[desert nimbus]

yeah Qxf2+ is annoying

[solid schooner]

Rf1...

[desert nimbus]

how would you win after that

[solid schooner]

idk it is lichess

[desert nimbus]

atleast we have a draw

but Rf1 seems way passive

[solid schooner]

it is always one side being better

[desert nimbus]

wdym

[compact mantle]

What if it’s Rxd4 and Qg3 eyeing Rb8 trade and Qc7 to promote

[desert nimbus]

Rd8

blocking pawn

[compact mantle]

Rb8

[solid schooner]

damn i love this puzzle

[compact mantle]

To trade and Qd6

[desert nimbus]

yey and i just push

[solid schooner]

it reunited the whole cc chat to solve it

[compact mantle]

I can take the d pawn while protecting my own

I always return Qd6 after I take it

[desert nimbus]

you mean first trade rooks

[compact mantle]

Yes

[desert nimbus]

and then Qxd3

hmm

[solid schooner]

i am off the calcs

[desert nimbus]

Qg5?

there is Qg5+ Qc1+

[compact mantle]

Yeah I see, shit

[desert nimbus]

IF you block i take your pawn

[compact mantle]

Qg3 maybe

[desert nimbus]

i take pawn

wait

[compact mantle]

You can?

[desert nimbus]

no

[compact mantle]

Ah okay

[ancient zodiac]

My mom stole my phone when she saw me smiling while I'm looking on my phone, I'm like it's not what you think mom 😭

[compact mantle]

Maybe from Qc1 Kg2

[desert nimbus]

wait

[solid schooner]

lol

[desert nimbus]

there is Qc1+ Kg2 Qc3+ double attack

[compact mantle]

You’re losing though🤣

[ancient zodiac]

Here's the latest

[solid schooner]

the fact that you have a mom caring that much for you is nice

[desert nimbus]

after Qg3 Qc1+ Qc3+

[compact mantle]

Qc3?

[ancient zodiac]

But there's just a one piece difference

[desert nimbus]

checking white king on g2

[compact mantle]

That’s a lot of material in an endgame

[desert nimbus]

am i bozo in that position?

[ancient zodiac]

Can I still beat him?

[desert nimbus]

i take your pawn next

[solid schooner]

how about we give up and check the solution

[compact mantle]

Last time I checked c3 is not on the same diag as g2 ngl

[compact mantle]

Oh c6

[desert nimbus]

sry

[ancient zodiac]

What should i do?

[desert nimbus]

lol my sleep schedule is messed up

[compact mantle]

Yeah ig that makes Qg5 work

[desert nimbus]

im just blind and drunk rn :/

[compact mantle]

Resign ngl🤣

[desert nimbus]

yep

[ancient zodiac]

I'm feeling optimistic that i can win

[compact mantle]

Inprove your knight

[desert nimbus]

[solid schooner]

[ancient zodiac]

Where is that specifically?

[solid schooner]

[ancient zodiac]

Here

[solid schooner]

we lost too much time to throw it way

[compact mantle]

That’s your plan to find out as a chess player

[desert nimbus]

Yeah

[digital phoenix]

id trade the rook instantly

[ancient zodiac]

Can you just help me for once

[desert nimbus]

and then

[compact mantle]

But I’d say e4 is a nice square

[solid schooner]

ok so we all agree on Rd4?

[digital phoenix]

if pawn takes

qb3

[desert nimbus]

ok then

[ancient zodiac]

I have no queen

[compact mantle]

Try and get the knight to e4

[digital phoenix]

[solid schooner]

[desert nimbus]

[latent pebble]

[ancient zodiac]

Here

[glossy radish]

seriously

[torpid lintel]

Getting on 2000 is a long journey!

And yes you can improve.

See the post I made here a long time ago#💬〡chess-talk message

Make sure to also look here #1040028251965358121 .

So play opening principles.
Use your time. Generally longer time control are good for improvement. Like 15/10 or 10 mins games . Use your time there.
Do puzzles. You can spend 5 to 15 mins on them. If you still did not find the right answer feel free to make a guess. If you got wrong. Analysis the puzzle. Look why your move was wrong? And why it better?

Analysis the game if possible do it with a coach or other players. We also analysis games here #1039982616159465595 .
Good luck!

[digital phoenix]

what is that opening

[ancient zodiac]

I don't know either

[digital phoenix]

e5 probably

[torpid lintel]

Hi v

[glossy radish]

[torpid lintel]

[glossy radish]

hi mohit

[compact mantle]

Transpose to a french

[torpid lintel]

[compact mantle]

c3 and pray to god he doesn’t go d4

[digital phoenix]

Nf3

[compact mantle]

Probably the more accurate move

Actually

Nf3 allows Bg4

Then he gets a really good french

[compact mantle]

w

d4 now

[ancient zodiac]

Am I winning?

[compact mantle]

M5

[digital phoenix]

d4 works yeah

[digital phoenix]

a really good french wont do anything

[compact mantle]

c3 was inaccurate, but so is the bot

[digital phoenix]

now nf3

[compact mantle]

Easy, we’re back into theory😎

[glossy radish]

i will soon i promise

[ancient zodiac]

What is n again?

[digital phoenix]

knight

[compact mantle]

Knight

[glossy radish]

ain’t no way you’re 1k

[warm spindle]

Youre actually insane bro. Go outside for like 5 minutes after this match.

[torpid lintel]

Okay v I believe you :)

[digital phoenix]

5 minutes is generous

[compact mantle]

Don’t need notation to play the game

[ancient zodiac]

He ate mine

[torpid lintel]

Who wanna play chess with me?

[digital phoenix]

[solid schooner]

Cheating

[compact mantle]

[warm spindle]

[glossy radish]

how are you doing in school

[digital phoenix]

uh not good

[ancient zodiac]

What is cxd?

[warm spindle]

fullsend

[compact mantle]

Do you have a specific study you’re interested in?

[glossy radish]

average test scores?

[digital phoenix]

i can get into medicine but not the best uni for that matter

[compact mantle]

c3xd4

[warm spindle]

why does that matter

[digital phoenix]

because

[warm spindle]

is the uni name more important than the essence for you

[digital phoenix]

the uni i want to target can get me to practice in australia

[torn leaf]

A wild cow has appeared!

[warm spindle]

mmm ok

[glossy radish]

come to america

[digital phoenix]

ew america

[glossy radish]

don’t go to aussie land

[torn leaf]

Cow says hello.

[digital phoenix]

land of the million genders and allat

[ancient zodiac]

His queen isn't moving 🥳

[warm spindle]

dont do that the american unis are filled with lobotomites

[compact mantle]

The better uni can provide better products to study the subject

[grim edge]

Hello

[glossy radish]

erm what

[weak cairn]

shut UP

[glossy radish]

real

[digital phoenix]

i still need to do national language exam and i dont want to do it in the first year of med school id die

[desert nimbus]

D:

[carmine arch]

oyo

[torn leaf]

Cow doesn't understand why human bad at conversations

[glossy radish]

you’re interested in med school?

[normal hatch]

Holy Cow!

[warm spindle]

Not always, also "2nd rate" unis in the U.S. can do the same. At the point most studious people are whether or noth you go to a top uni becomes more of a thing for prestiege.

[ancient zodiac]

What should I do next?

[glossy radish]

resign

[torn leaf]

🐄

[normal hatch]

🐮

[lilac wadi]

Isn't this cheating?

[torn leaf]

Cow likes this human

[carmine arch]

Nc3 or Bd2

[ancient zodiac]

I'm against Soccer Magnus

[lilac wadi]

Mb

[ancient zodiac]

Mb?

[compact mantle]

They really do have a different curriculum 9/10 times. Every uni has their own way of doing things, and sometimes it might not suit you. Better to find out before than after you’ve been signed in

[warm spindle]

Why would a BILLION dollar institution with far reaching alumni not have the ability to do this?

[lilac wadi]

Still why you asking beat him yourself

[desert nimbus]

How did you learn the language of cow?

[compact mantle]

Bc there is competition between universities

[warm spindle]

Yeah, but that's not really a thing that seperates Top Unis from other Unis universally

[ancient zodiac]

Leave me alone, do your own thing

[torn leaf]

Cow learned it from other cows who taught him the ways of the cows

[lilac wadi]

Okay if you say so

[compact mantle]

It changes in the way they suggest the students study

If that does not suit the student well, they fail
