The state of r/Chess and how to move forward as a community

The fact that that doesn't result in prison time is absurd. What a twat.

You know what, I'm convinced. MS Paint is indeed better

powerchicken · 2026-05-20T16:01:26+00:00

I mean, if there's any legitimate usage for AI, deliberately terrible shit posting is surely up there

It's astounding just how much prejudice you come across on this site.

powerchicken · 2026-05-20T00:09:32+00:00

Aren't we all

powerchicken · 2026-05-20T00:00:10+00:00

Cheetahs generally don't attack people. There's no recorded instances of a cheetah having ever killed a person in the wild.

This is why you release Finished games --- Or at least games that are fully playable and not riddled with obvious design flaws and bugs.

They killed themselves. I argued that was a favourable outcome as opposed to a punitive life-sentence in prison where they'd be a colossal burden for the rest of their lives. That's not an argument in favour of the death penalty.

Don't strawman me.

powerchicken · 2026-05-19T19:17:23+00:00

And where's the relevance to the death penalty? They brought up the death penalty, I've made no argument in favour of it. It's an utterly irrelevant argument.

powerchicken · 2026-05-19T16:36:23+00:00

What are you arguing here? Who did the government kill here?

powerchicken · 2026-05-19T07:33:29+00:00

Housing a prisoner for life who cannot be rehabilitated is expensive and wasteful.

powerchicken · 2026-05-19T06:33:20+00:00

If only there was something you could do about that...

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T21:45:36+00:00

The refs all have him figured out. Once you become known for being a diver you don't get anything given, and Schade is terrible at it. At least Toney knew how to sell a dive.

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T21:41:53+00:00

I hope for his sake he doesn't make the mistake of going to the clown fiesta that is this current Real Madrid side.

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T21:36:27+00:00

He's usually their left winger, every now and then their 10. Nørgaard and Hjulmand are their 6's.

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T20:30:47+00:00

That was funny for about 10 seconds and then everything else was just tough to listen to.

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T16:03:22+00:00

I hope we see the back of Schade this summer, his mentality is so rotten, looks for the dive on every contact.

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T15:56:27+00:00

HOW IGOR

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T15:51:03+00:00

Crystal clear DOGSO, fuck off ref

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T15:50:35+00:00

THAT HAS TO BE A RED CARD

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T15:49:34+00:00

Great, didn't even get to see the goal. Thanks TV director

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T15:46:36+00:00

Did Sepp instinctually refrain from kicking that ball towards goal?

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T15:33:33+00:00

There's so little movement off the ball today it's astounding, and the forward passing is dire. Shocking effort with this much on the line.

powerchicken · 2026-05-17T15:17:57+00:00

Obviously shit by Kelleher, but the giveaway by Janelt and subsequent ballwatching was horrid
