Chess

remember it is three days per move. It doesnt have to be speedy unless you want it to be

Ive made first moves in my tournament games but it keeps returning me back to the start when i revisit the game. What am I doing wrong?
Edit: wasn't pressing the tick button. Sorted

Just about to cross the line against @doubleodavey. Close for a long time. Wish I knew how to progress mid game, we spent a while felt like being too scared of losing to try and win.

GG @duncs

@moocher, good game.
Made a few to many mistakes when I decided to go for the win.

Was close - you could just as easily have been victorious

Maybe play you again in the final of the tournament :)

Loving this tournament.

So much fun once a game starts to get spicy and you ignore all the others for a bit.

Last night's with moocher was very tense. It shouldn't have been, but hey we all make mistakes don't we?

cracking tournament this

group 2 are smashing it

my browser loves @DethBeard moves the most. always seem to be more rapid than others. brutal but always with a hint of dethwish

good games guys. top stuff

Really enjoying this!

I've had a mixed day. Could have taken down one of the big dogs but threw my queen away.

Great fun though

I`m very much enjoying it. Lots of games to keep track of and a couple if silly mistakes creeping in when playing too early in the morning.

Another brilliant game against moocher.

Well played.

Games are more brilliant when you win them. But, yes it was good fun.

silly mistakes creeping in when playing too early in the morning

I call my 1am errors late at night silly mistakes, but I guess technically it is early morning too ;)

Wow you guys are smashing through the games ... sorry for my slowness to respond to moves, anyone up for spending an hour or so solidly playing a game this evening, after 8?

I've applied to join the hallowed ranks of the chess.com group.... as I'm tired of getting beaten by my 7 year old and wouldnt mind getting beaten by someone else

compodepanda? You’ve made the cut...

yay! i think....

I'll give you a game.

Sorry! Just saw this and the request on chess.com

Maybe over weekend?

Sure. I gave it ages of time between moves so just play as you like!

ah - cool, thanks. Used to seeing 5 and 10 minute games (7 year old on chesskids.com!) didnt realise

That's a lot of quick games some of you are playing.

I'm finding that my chess ability comes in waves, I seem to do progressively better if I get an advantage. It is easier to think clearly when trying to press an advantage than defend against one.

when covid is done, we could organise a bike ride to a country pub where we play some chess together and drink beer.

that sounds like heaven.
