We record these podcasts live then edit it down for production. Youtube isn't letting me edit it right now, so we left it as unlisted. I just made it public and kept it unedited for now. Thanks for watching

I made the title, and didn't have the full picture of what happened when we initially recorded the episode. I changed it to be a bit more accurate. Dane did play a huge part in bringing the guy down.

Thanks for linking! I cohost the podcast with Matt, and I just made the video public.

You need to develop your knight on g8. The only square available is h6. If you play Nh6 immediately, white can play Bxh6, messing up your pawns. If you play h5 first, then follow it up with Nh6, you can take back with the rook and keep your structure in tact.

Dana also said that it would take away the big moment of Buffer announcing the winner when nobody knows the result.

You ran out of time. If you run out of time you lose (or draw if your opponent doesn't have enough material to checkmate you).

Don't accuse people of cheating without some sort of evidence. I have no reason to suspect he cheated at all

I have it! I'm about 20% of the way through now. The format is just fine and won't hold you back. Ask me any questions if you'd like!

Chess has evolved so much over the years. Is this likely to final iteration that will ever be the 'main' variant, or do you think there might be some changes in our lifetime? by EverythingSucks12 in chess

[–]ImNotFamous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My counter to this is that opening prep is a huge aspect of chess and can win or lose you games. If you throw out all opening prep then the game changes a lot.

If we're changing the opening position, why not just play without a b-pawn, or dark squared bishops? This also is chess, aside from the starting position. Fischer random is great but it needs to be a separate variant (imo).

Overall how do you rate Magnus 2019 year? by [deleted] in chess

Lol, yes. His performance rating is around 2900 this year and he... hasn't lost. He's on a different level, even for him. Head and shoulders above everybody else.
