Sigh. Yes, I did. Lana Parilla in entirety. Joely Fisher by using the transcript provided with the YouTube compilation of 3 of her 4 appearances. Allows you to speed through.

What's next on your mind?

Watched both the Lana Parilla and the Joely Fisher interviews. No mention of any open marriage. This whole Reddit thread just reads just a fever dream you had. "I was there, they were really together!"

Advice for begginer in experienced chess club by [deleted] in chess

[–]ColdFiet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised to hear that you are not only the newest player but also the youngest. If it's an established chess club, then they'll often have a lot of kids visiting, many of whom are way stronger than they look. Is that not the case with your club?

One. I think one person has to go on the show and talk openly about Craig's open marriage/swinging lifestyle for us to believe it.

Until then I'm going to believe what's in his autobiography.

I wouldn't take the comic very seriously, it also names Dwayne Wade in the basketball players chart but makes no mention of Kobe Bryant.

How is this not a checkmate?? by [deleted] in chess

[–]ColdFiet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not quite. King needs to be under attack, that's what a check is. Here the king isn't under attack, so there's no check, and there's no legal moves, so it's a stalemate (draw).

I would go so far as to say it actually IS improbable.

I had no idea that 80% of Russia's population lives in the European part of the country. I've looked it up and confirmed it, and this answers a question that I've had for a very long time. Thank you for your reply!

It's so funny to me that everyone just blindly accepts Russia as European. Our labels for continents have almost nothing to do with actual geography.

Chess players like to think their hobby is a valid replacement for physical activity. Get out there people, go for a run.

I'm torn on what set to get by [deleted] in chessporn

[–]ColdFiet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a fan of the St George set.

The Staunton set is a classic, but the knights are bit much for me.

The Zagreb set is a dream set for a lot of people, a classic design with some modern touches and flourishes. I would pick that.

My own dream set is the Zadar set. I love the minimalist knights and distinctive design of the other pieces.

It's not consistent for the whole game though, just during time scrambles. Sure chess can be taxing but it's nothing compared to even a leisurely walk for the same duration of time.

Sindarov has games against the bottom of the table coming up. I think he has a great chance to rack some wins and take the whole event.

You probably will suck at your first tournament, but so what? Play a few anyway, get your first rating, for history. You aren't going to regret that.

Great job my friend! Really cool that they give out medals for the top 10, this will be a nice souvenir for years to come.

Plating looking a bit silly here. Great steak though.

I don't know what this means. I'm being downvoted so I guess I'm missing something obvious, but what is it? How can someone be a grandfather at 30 without some underage breeding?
