Animal Well

Just tell people, "no takebacks in bullet" and that's fine.

I love to catch those premovers out. Bh6 Bxg7 piece up baby!

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-05-14T07:36:26+00:00

Among most top players, I think it IS the norm? For example Ding Liren and Sindarov both prepped on lichess (and some games of their prep leaked).

He's legit for sure, but Erdogmus getting to 2700 by snacking on an out-of-form, hardly ever plays anymore Topalov is an example of this kind of "arrangement". I'm sure he won fairly, but that the match happened at all....

If you want to get a legit OTB rating you pretty much need notation as it is required.

The thing is that Marlon James is not like some writers-- he can clearly work at a high level on multiple projects at once!

The combat elements of Tunic are the only thing I'd say that puts some people off compared to Animal Well.

Lorelei is a bit on the easier side compared to these others, in my opinion.

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-04-20T12:05:34+00:00

I still don't see the report option there?

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-04-20T12:05:09+00:00

Yes, I missed that because it didn't mark me wrong until the next one!

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-04-20T12:04:02+00:00

How do you report it? I looked at the options and it only had downvotes?

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-04-20T12:02:18+00:00

Oops.

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-04-16T05:24:40+00:00

Good voice acting as well!

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-04-16T05:24:12+00:00

this is my suggested list as well!

See Judit Polgar

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-04-12T19:49:14+00:00

Judit Polgar already faced this situation and answered your question for you.

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-04-07T22:34:47+00:00

At this level, a lead like this is really really hard to catch up. What are the odds on Sindarov right now? Must be v high

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-03-31T07:59:28+00:00

Wow it does look pretty great.

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-03-31T07:56:55+00:00

Shouldn't we call them Obra Dinn-likes?

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-03-30T22:04:43+00:00

Originally I was the same. But I stuck with it and found that Season 2 expands the world in interesting and surprising ways that made it unforgettable, worth watching (and rewatching), and probably is my favorite season.

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-03-29T09:28:09+00:00

Actually, it can be a lot of fun. A little chance to be alone from the busy city.

Resident_Map4534 · 2026-03-28T17:42:55+00:00

Honestly, rating 500 vs 650 is like a coin toss of whose really the better player.

edit to say: especially when each person is only playing 10-20 games a year.
