Absolutely. It was very disappointing

Just caught up on the Dr Lupo chess cheating scandal and my oh my. Such a shame. And such a fool to think you won't get caught.

Yes, chess can make you feel stupid. Losing at chess sucks. But there is NEVER an excuse to cheat.

Ju Wenjun is now a five-time Women's World Champion! 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

She ties the historic mark set by Georgian legends Nona Gaprindashvili & Maia Chiburdanidze, the most in the modern era! 👏👏👏

Hi everyone it's been a while! Work has been kicking my butt 🙃

How are you? How is your chess?

It's something I am also struggling with personally, I can feel my attention span shortening and I have to be so careful with it 🙃

Have been enjoying the change of pace watching freestyle / chess960.

Sparks so much more curiosity in me than standard chess right now!

I like this perspective!

My brain has been feeling really lazy when it comes to puzzles lately. Just trying stuff rather than actually working it out to the end.

Anyone else had this and found a way through/change that worked?
