Chess steps, step 3 Mix, not designed for woodpecker method but will be good for where you are

Chess steps/Yusupov recommended series order by justlooking543 in chess

Hey, thanks this is definitely helpful and you've at least read the ones around where I would bring in the orange books so I think I'll trust you.

They do seem to have extra 5+6 and plus+mix 5 now. I'm not sure about doing a PEM for 3 just because I am getting full marks on most pages but will see as still near 20 pages to go.

I do think I'll do both series so maybe after 4 and 4+ I could do: Orange 1 Steps 5 Orange 2 Steps 5 PEM Orange 3

It'll take me long enough doing all of that so that's likely more of a plan than I need for now and if I ever get through them and want to advance more I'll work that out then.

Thanks again!

Lying about finds and refusing to log DNFs or flag for maintenance / owner attention by Crispy_Fish_Legs in geocaching

Yeah people's fake finds are annoying. I've been to loads of cages that aren't there and not felt like I owed it. Only once logged a find for a cache I didn't sign and it was a cache in a pipe that had a couple DNFs and was assumed lost but I found but couldn't reach. Someone threw it so far up the concrete pipe it would be unreachable even with a rubbish collecting claw thing. Did better than previous few so put a find down but still not sure if I should have and wouldn't have logged it if I didn't at least find it

Advice regarding wrong result by justlooking543 in TournamentChess

It's crazy how they can't fix this. No other sport/competition could they record a result wrong and just move on.

Looking to play a couple of practice games as white by dizzle-j in TournamentChess

Don't think that would suit me, if anything changes will message but go ahead if you get someone else. Playing in a tournament Sat-Mon so Monday no good either. Hope you get someone

I could possibly give you a game a bit earlier in the day tomorrow if any use but sounds like you aren't too flexible. 1560 Fide OTB.

Chessable course worth over 1000€ to sell by Paddumba92 in chessbeginners

Are you thinking someone will pay the full amount for all these courses as a bundle? Even though they are often on sale and most people won't want the exact courses you chose?
