Team chess!?

What about we find ourselves opponents, play with private messages and post the final results (or interesting positions) from times to times?

Blimey! I go to the kitchen to make some toast - I come back - and suddenly it's all Big Time Chess Championship Stuff.

I didn't join this forum to do chess, I joined it to show off my Rolex Submariner.

By the way, Southampton Football Club beat Doncaster 2 - 0 today, I know, because I was there.


(Love you! - and good luck with your Chess. Carl, honestly mate, I've had a few and well, you know, ...)

There will always be room for all of the non chess playing, soccer watching, sub wearing members over in the love-filled environment of the TRF's cheese club.

Look, people are sending me PM's now, about going to websites and doing chess moves, then, other people are sending me PM's about Cheese, which is alright - I like a bit of cheese, but then, out of the blue, someone's sending me a PM about wanting to buy my Sub - and that's the limit - 'cos it ain't for sale - not for any money.
Because if I did sell it, I wouldn't be able to come on this forum no more would I?

Cheese - I can handle,

Chess - Yep, good, bring it on, Knight to bishop,etc,

Selling the Sub - NO WAY! You know who you are - Don't ask me again or I'll tell Dalip.


(316lad, attempts to shut down his computer, fails, and crawls off in the general direction of his bed, safe and happy in the knowledge that he belongs to the finest community of folk on the internet.)

B8 - B6 Knight.

316lad laughs out loud and then collapses.
Only a few moments later his snoring threatens to lift the roof tiles from his house and send them flinging off into the night sky.

Carl?

Carl?

Are you there?

I think he's sleeping now. Maybe it's a good time to 'buy' his sub. He won't remember a thing when he wakes up. Make it quick so you can go back to playing chess, ok?

And don't slam the door, either. That will wake him for sure.

This is really random. But I really thought the thread title was TRF's Cheese club.

Wow! Wait a minute! What's that!

Little update: To be a bit more serious, I think Wes's idea is very good and I propose his website as our way to play.

If anybody wants to challenge somebody else on the forum, I recommend you to use this chess website and play by sending you images. In the end you could post up the final position of the pieces in this thread, same applies to interesting and very nice moments of the game!

Have fun ladies and gentlemen!

My 10 year old daughter is starting to beat me with consistency, more so than I'm beating her. A bit hard on the ego, yet at the same time, I'm so proud.
