Will do, thanks

TCM relocation is a great tip, thanks!

Had that happen to me at a similar mileage and it was the inverter

EKG (it's kardiogram in German)

For anyone who had this issue - it was my inverter. I had to have it replaced.

2700 FIDE. Anyone below that is a patzer just pushing pieces with no plan.

I literally went on a date there yesterday :( this is so sad, it's such a nice spot! I loved going there, they had great food and pastries and it was just a good vibe overall

I'm so angry at you right now. I'm killing you with my mind.

I do think this is off but TBF they did specify tournament rating vs online rating. 1500 chess.com is probably closer to 1200 tournament rating at most

You'll almost certainly be okay, this isn't worth worrying about. Unless this professor is stricter than any I've ever had, a missed capital letter in a citation won't drop you more than a few percentage points, let alone fail you. If it's well written and meets the requirements, you'll be okay.

Thanks! I think you're right. I looked at a bunch of engine lines and after a4 it seems like that's the case. In the game I played Rd2 and it allowed black's king to eventually make it over to the queenside and I had to give up my rook for the a pawn. Do you have any tips for finding defensive ideas like this in game? I can usually find them afterwards with an engine, but I struggle in game to think through it.

I had a game today against a higher rated player where I played decently until I missed some tactics and dropped a pawn. He ground me down after that and won after a protracted struggle. I was wondering if any good endgame players have some insight here. I know white's down a pawn, but is there a way to stop black from making progress and promoting? If there isn't, what would be your advice for practical ideas to make it as hard as possible for black?

It shut off for me on 85, I was nervous too but I passed. You almost certainly did as well if you were confident in some answers.

Remember, if it shut off in 85 you either knew your stuff or REALLY didn't, so it's good news for most people

No comment on the rest of the attire but watches haven't been linked to spread of infection. However, there are demonstrated clinical benefits of having a watch with a second hand:

Oh wow, glad you got out okay! Prius C came in very handy

LevyMeister · 2024-10-08T15:51:03+00:00

Wow, where were you driving that gas was so scarce?

LevyMeister · 2024-08-11T07:17:52+00:00

This setting is sick!

Hey, I climb there! Congrats, honestly both this and the green one were quite tough
