Depending on the turn out we can organize an arena between periods.

How long until someone invents a butt plug that can be programmed with some of the most famous chess matches ever? Called "Check-mate", of course.

Sorry, that sort of information is for members only.

You could join. Then you’ll be in the loop on that and many* other things.





*So far there are no other things, but you never know. There COULD be.

I guess you didn’t hear about the World Cup Stacking Federation’s infamous “Krazy glue on cups” scandal.

https://lichess.org is free and has the same analysis features as chess.com.

Happy to start a team there too if anyone is interested.

Well, the world is our oyster. We have 6 members now (and growing…. Maybe). We could do a blitz tournament some time, you can challenge a member to play…. Looks like most of us are close to the same range of ratings, though I haven’t looked at all the profiles yet.

Not sure. I think it involves Bluetooth-enabled vibrating butt plugs somehow.

I think we should give it a day and see how many people sign up?

Also, disappointing that my gif failed above!
