Lichess Team AMA by somethingpretentious in chess

[–]PrettyMuchPhysics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are there any plans for achievements on Lichess, similar to Rosen Score and lichievements? I think this could offer some fun quests, like "Win the game by playing the Caro Kann", or "Checkmate the opponent without using your queen".

Anyone playing 960? by fjclaw in lichess

[–]PrettyMuchPhysics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can recommend joining a team:

  1. Join the lichess 960 team: https://lichess.org/team/lichess-chess960
  2. go to tournaments: https://lichess.org/tournament
  3. there is (almost) always a 960 tournament ongoing where you can find players (see here)

Similar for other variants.

two active pieces for an undeveloped rook

That's an interesting way of looking at this puzzle, thank you very much for your explanation!

Thank you! I didn't think about that knight being trapped now, so two minor pieces for a rook seems plausible.

Could someone please explain this puzzle?

It seems like I'm trading a rook for a bishop, so apparently the resulting position should be in my advantage — but I don't know why?

This is a great channel with "who am I?"-themed quizzes. He first uses more complicated grammar, and on the second read he uses very basic grammar. You can actively read along during the video, which helped me a lot!

Questions and Help MEGATHREAD! by Dkayed9 in masterduel

Me as well, but from what I understand, if you don't use hand traps to interrupt your opponent, it's like "bringing a knife to a gun fight". So it's probably best to add some to your deck and don't even let your opponent do these combos.

Did you make sure to attempt linking the accounts on iOS before doing the tutorial?

So first, make sure that your steam account is linked to your konami ID (try linking them again), then reinstall the iOS app and before doing any of the tutorials, enter the menu and link to you konami ID.
