If anyone wants a chat just send me a pm, i'll try to talk about any subject you want, I'm feeling lonely and isolated today, I've just sat in all day?
I wish this forum had a chat room , maybe its something that could be considered having
Can anyone play chess?
Oddly though it seems you accepted my friend request, you're not appearing on my friend list. This is despite Mark adding me and he being on my list. Wonder why that's the case.
Chess.com tries to prevent offensive behaviour, since it's pretty much the number 1 chess site in the world and is used on a professional level. But it's a clumsy effort. My sleep schedule is quite messy and I'm often up during the wee hours of the morn.
The reason for the 1 move a day games is that I was using the site to teach friends how to play the game, and the timer was too stressful for them. I don't mind 10 minute rapid. Working on building a frame for my window at the minute to mount a mesh (these darned night bugs), but I'd be down to play sometime.
hes not playing Mark , i think he is offline now, I've just accepted your request, we could start an Autistic Chess Club lol
I can't play now. But I've signed up and requested you both. I'm Mark Spyke. Did you know that Spike was a banned word. I wonder why? I'll leave you to your game, but if I ever feel the need and ever get any sleep, I will look out for you.
I play chess a lot Oran G Utan, I've had a wasted Life!!! :-p
I've added you Oran G, what type of game you want to play?, I see you have played 1 move a day games, I usually play rapid , 10 minute ones.
Aye well when you have a Scottish accent and a sense of humour, even my god awful banter does me alright when I'm talking to Americans.
Tam O Banter. Us autistics are meant to be terrible at banter. Like it.
Alright. The name you'll see is Tam0Banter
Orn g utan my username there is the same as my one here, except it has 1969 after it, add me, we can play sometime
I had to Google "Executive Function" , I did sharpen my chain saw today ;-), I'm preparing for winter, i've collected lots of wood for my wood burner, I'm ready to chop it. Hello Oran g utan, I'm free too on chess .com I try not to pay for anything, Although I do have a subscription for youtube the adverts between videos i find torturous
two not too.
You too should connect for that. I'm a bit jealous now, so do it another time - ha ha.
I can play chess. I quite like the saying "Knowing how to play chess is the sign of a gentleman. Knowing how to play chess well is the sign of a wasted life.". Perfect excuse for not being terrific at it. But I know all the rules. Castling, en passant, all that jazz. I had a membership to Chess.com for a while, but the subscription fee kicked me when I was down one time so I stick to free now.
Slow everyday. I think they are upgrading the platform this month. Hi Oran G Utan.
I guess a thread like this could be used as kind of a chatroom Although the site seems a little slow today,
I have a problem with what I think is called "Executive Function". I am quite new to the terminology, but I think it's about ability to do basic tasks.
I bring this up because I am not doing much with my life at the moment, and so my wife gives me tasks to do. Which inevitable involve phone calls. I then I don't do them. Spiral.
Good Idea Mark
Thanks sphinx, I usually play chess on chess.com but it would be nice to play with people i kind of know from this forum. I'm not sure how Accessible it is for blind users, It might be ok , Its a popular site
