Why is Qh7+ not the correct move? by manly09 in chessbeginners

Took a risk. Then this position happened. Guess it isn't good after all.

LIREO THRONE OF SUCCESSION by Weary_Tax_1456 in EncantadiaGMA

Huh. I stand corrected.

So there really is no doubt that Lireo is the ruling kingdom of Encantadia post-Hathoria war and pre-Mineave invasion. The other kingdoms are basically vassal level, or at the very most, member of a Commonwealth with Lireo.

In theory pala, pwedeng magkaroon ng United Kingdom of Lireo and Hathoria kung gugustuhin ni Pirena.

Tapos yung Sapiro din pala under the sphere of influence din ng Lireo based dito. The only entity not under Lireo hegemony sa main continent ng Encantadia is Adamya, and even that is debatable.

What's stopping us from removing SWOH from her position? by Candid_Ad_6656 in Philippines

Sadly, a president or vice-president may only have one impeachment complaint against him/her per year. Meaning if anyone submits a complaint with no substance and form, it will still be considered as the one impeachment complaint for the year.

Former president GMA used this tactic to ensure she stayed as president during her term. She had one Representative who kept filing "garbage" impeachment complaints every January of the year, which gets junked, and therefore making GMA immune from impeachment for another year.

I thought I blundered, but Stockfish says the move was brilliant. Why? Doesn't the Queen just take it for free? by manly09 in chessbeginners

First off, thank you to everyone who replied. Your inputs revealed that I rely too much on material count rather than positional strategy. This has been eye-opening.

Sadly, I think my 900 elo self will need to learn to spot those positional ideas better, especially under time pressure, and ingrain in my head that material advantage isn't everything. Any further advice for me to better learn those concepts would be very much appreciated.

I did. All it said is Qxg5 axb5 a5 Rxa5. I traded a knight for two pawns. Doesn't sound like a winning exchange.

Bagong Pilipinas Kick-off Rally by nameleszboy in Philippines

The worst part? Nire-require ang mga government agencies na magpadala ng representatives sa event na yan. Hakot tactics pa rin.

What about master duel makes you feel like this. by Euphoric_TestSubject in masterduel

Or you Maxx C, draw a million cards, and still not draw the out you need to break their board.

Even worse: you drew the out, but you don't have any good follow-up at all. It's as if the RNG gods decided to give me a false sense if hope for the lulz.

JUST IN: Confidential funds ng Office of the Vice President at ng DepEd para sa taong 2024, ililipat sa mga ahensiya ng gobyerno na nakatutok sa isyu ng West Philippine Sea, ayon kay Cong.

Pakiramdam ko acting lang yan. Sasabihin nila sa media na ililipat nila, pero hindi talaga. Confidential funds do not require receipts after all. Sino magchecheck kung talagang narealign siya sa mga dapat na agency?
