    TG Chess Club anyone?

    I can't believe TG doesn't ALREADY have a chess club! Being that we're a tactical community it would seem only proper.

    I was thinking perhaps we could use Yahoo Chess or some other similar online chess site. Perhaps even the latest edition of Chessmaster (I don't have it, but I do believe it offers online multiplayer play).

    Any thoughts? Suggestions?

    I just want to warn you all not to play with Dark Viper. He won the Oaklahoma State Title a few years ago, and was sponsored by Walmart and White Castle to go to nationals. He doesn't like to brag about it.

    I played a lot in high school too. I haven't played in years. My friend and I used to play on the internet chess club--it's called wild 24 there, but they also have the varient crazyhouse. I haven't used their software in ages, so I'm unsure if they still have that feature--I checked, they still do. The only problem is that while you can play as a guest, getting games going with a membership is much much easier.

    Let me know if you want to try and get a game of bughouse going DV: http://www.chessclub.com/

    Really? He should challenge Meat Drapes to a game on www.RedHotPawn.com

    Meat has beat me like 79 out of 80 games... I just want to see someone beat him!

    Dark Viper chastised me on TS last night for giving out his secret passion and for misspelling his home state (He's also Oaklahoma's Spelling B champion for '85, '86, & '87). Another reason why not to post when you've had a few beers in you. I wouldn't be surprised if he accepts a chess challenge should anyone desire.

    I'll play DV, only if I get to be on your team. I have played some pretty good players before though. The guy who wrote me a letter of recommendation for grad school was ranked third in England for a while. Then again, he kicked my ass a lot.

    Nothing Roach says is true. How could I have won a spelling B at 1 month old? I've never won any tournaments before, I just played chess as a hobby.

    What I hear is that the 33rd play chess in full LARP style on a big checkered duvet. They always fight over who gets to be the Queen.
    Peace through fear... since 1947!
