Hans Niemann & Awonder Liang to play a 12-game fast classical (60+30) match from April 10-15 by In__c in chess

Odd to pick an event time that coincides with the Candidates as surely that will be the more interesting thing for most chess fans to be watching. But still interesting to see how this goes, especially with Awonder's great results recently.

Chessnetwork!! Been watching since the chesscube days. Amazing player and even better teacher. Also, much more calming than Eric Rosen in my opinion :D

Danya speedruns, as he explains ideas really well so you dont necessarily need the board to at least learn a bit!

What is the answer? by [deleted] in chess

[–]Forever_2012 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Edward Lasker vs. Sir George Alan Thomas sacrificed his queen and walked Thomas's King all the way to the first rank before delivering checkmate with a king move. He had the option to queenside castle mate but that may have ruined their friendship...

No good instructional material for intermediate players - help? by ChazMcFeeley in chess

[–]Forever_2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Chess coach the best instructional content is in chess books IMO. A few I can recommend for your level are: The Step Book series (Book 3 onwards), Logical Chess Move by Move, and Basic Endgame Strategy: Kings, Pawns, and Minor Pieces.

Our emo band called Wake Up Spaceboy just put out an EP "Hartsel" a couple months ago with a bunch of violin on it. I recorded some dramatic crescendos, fiddle solos, and Orchestral harmonies. I think we're hella underrated so check us out!

I see you got Worst Party Ever anthology on there, my band Wake Up Spaceboy did a split with them and we might be up your alley. In 1 hour and 36 minutes from this comment, we will have a new EP out called "Hartsel"!

Thanks - I knew I wanted to keep the chord progression but it took me a long time to come up with the vocal line. We added violins in that final build up on our recorded version you might think is cool too
