Bonbon44 and kolotom are really skillful players. Don't know your Eli in classical chess but you feel positional game really great.
What about me, this is my second or third attempt to play Fischer chess and time isy main obstacle. Can't quite evaluate unfamiliar position, however I got a lot of fun. Really appreciate here's my soulmates who like to play chess
I (kolotom) have like 1600.
Don't you enjoy that escape from classical matrix? I also just started playing 960 and it seems more fun than regular ones.
Wish you joined us on Hivetalk, Bonbon was there too, we had good chats, too!
Play from smartphone, so it's alittle inconvenient for multitasking.
Thank you so much @itsTomekK, you revived in me the spark for the game after all of this years, with this wonderfully refreshing variant that 960 chess is! I really enjoyed it, made me remember the magic of the first games I played, when everything was discovery. Thank you for getting me acquainted with the site too, it's great! I'm now playing exercises there as puzzles. Love it. Thank you so much :)
Awesome, glad you enjoyed it! And @youdidplaywell !
LOL thank you :)
