Bxc4+ [Social] [Forming]

Post by NoSurvivors »

We are a group on CC that loves to play chess! We will have a ladder (ranks 1-10 at the start, hopefully more will join us). Anyone is welcome to join so long as you enjoy the game of chess! This will be a closed group, only because we would like to keep track of those who enter, so we can add them to the board :). We will play chess at http://www.chess.com

Haha, sorry, I should have been more clear.

On another note, even though I enjoy chess and have been playing for quite a while in my life, apparently I'm not that good. I've lost my first 3 matches and am now ranked in the 800-900 range.

Maybe I should just stick to CC... :lol:


Also, shouldn't this probably be in Callouts under the Create/Join a Usergroup forum? It's not really a clan, is it? Just curious.

Right on, I won't feel so bad now...

Also, have you been drinking? Your text leads me to believe that perhaps you have... Either way, drunk posting is the best. :P

I go to irl chess club twice a week and rating has nothing to do with your enjoyment of chess. This group is for people who enjoy playing, like yourself, regardless of rating. I can envision there being threads about strategies and stuff on how to get better but there's no way I would be part of a chess group that was 'elitist' or only for people of a certain rating, as that in my opinion goes against the spirit of what chess represents.

Remember the 1 competitive clan rule, so you can't be in RotS if you're in this as a competitive clan?

Cool.

Yeah, I wouldn't join if it was like that either, mainly because they wouldn't let me join, since I can't keep that kind of rating. :cry:

So are you guys playing over there already? If so, could I get your usernames so I can add you guys as friends? Then if we're online at the same time we can play a game together. Or we could arrange a time to be online...whatevs.

I'd prefer to post my chess.com username in the usergroup as opposed to all out in the open, though I'll send you a pm.

That works. Anybody else is free to do the same.

Or, if you want to just add me as a friend over there, I use the same username there that I use here.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure we need at least 10 to get the usergroup and the forum.

I'll join too, there's a lot of time I haven't played chess seriously, and I need to get back.

BTW, there's another page, where you can play (for free) non-rt chess. The same as CC (well there's no premium, and only one setting, normal chess, but you can choose the time or for the overall game or by turns)
