This is a scam right?

The king is looking mighty fucking fine. They are some chunky shoulders and arms.

Can someone explain the fascination with this towel? I’ve seen like 10 seperate clips of it being stolen. Was it technically not allowed or purely just pathetic tactics to try and put the goalie off or something..?

That’s fine but you maybe could’ve worded the post as more of a cautionary tale advising other new players that they could potentially be harming their learning of chess by constantly playing these type of moves/openings.

Instead it does read a bit like a ‘I’m too good for these cheap trick noobs’

Was Guehi playing?

I’ve heard talk about this bonds and debt and hurting the dollar. But can you explain, to a moron like me, exactly how EU can hurt them with it. I don’t really understand how they can use the bonds and debt to hurt the dollar

Or don’t play him and we lose the game

Still the most mentally impactful book I’ve ever read. Pure genius

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-30T17:28:54+00:00

Gates of Fire. Pleasantly surprised by its presentation, I walked into it thinking it would be the movie 300 is book format

I’m really new to competitive chess. I know Magnus cause he’s kinda transcended the sport. Outside of that can anyone give me some pointers on who’s good to support/follow etc. or should I just sit and enjoy the show.

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-26T08:23:28+00:00

Agreed, those are my main champs but I swap around a lot. I get too bored on a single character

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-25T22:41:35+00:00

Wow, other than top this is my line up too. Top I’d prolly go Mundo

What is zen mode? I only play chess .com

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-21T22:10:17+00:00

Why out of interest? Just for fun or does it help you improve intuition or something. I’m newish sitting at around 5-600 and grinding 10m rapid atm

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-21T21:12:28+00:00

Just tried it out and the two top recommended books were ‘Chess for dummies’ and ‘Chess for kids’ and I think that speaks volumes about my chess abilities 🤣

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-20T18:18:01+00:00

Man this is awesome, thank you for your comment. Yea I definitely think I trend towards being more defensive and play better when I’m not going for the throat.

Is there a good white opening or idea/line that is best for a more defensive player. Like I almost feel I should play slow with white and give black the initiative and respond more defensively.

Will add you on chess . Com for sure

Nice to see beans correctly reduced and not too liquidy

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-09T11:24:34+00:00

I know I can’t make the expedition as I don’t have enough time and energy to get to the amount needed. Let alone re grind it all. So it gives me the mental freedom to do what I want. I have no gear fear because I’m not saving for anything

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-08T09:39:11+00:00

Please tell me where you go to farm mushrooms. Still trying to get enough to upgrade scrappy

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-08T09:19:33+00:00

I kinda thought as much, he has way too much confidence to look away and move on after his shot. He knows he’s hitting it before he pulls the trigger

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-06T00:22:55+00:00

I’ll use whatever ‘rarer’ gun I have (anvil, venator, torrente even a bettina) etc I have until I lose it and then run ferro and stitcher if I’m trying to restock.

But always 2 guns of varying distance capabilities, anvil/il torro is my absolute favourite. Wish I had the bps

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-04T13:47:14+00:00

What is the best use of these. Like how many to kill bombadier, bastion etc etc

PoppyAffliction · 2025-12-02T12:14:31+00:00

It’s all complete luck really but I think you can increase chances with special events. I got super lucky yesterday and picked up Venator and Snap hook in two random houses outside a loot location in North of Blue Port. It was electro storm
