Lots of blunders, but 2 brilliant moves in one game. It's rare situation for me

Technically yes. If we can transform dice tossing, why we can't use chess for the same purpose

Only a couple moves and we get this huge cloud of possible variants. Math says: there's $10^{120}$ possible games. And as science sats: it's more than atoms in visible universe.

p.s. math behind total amount of chess moves

I may add - "life beging when you get rid of sugar from your life"

As I said I don't like taste of coffee. I could drink it for effect but taste. The same as vodka, I drank it for effect, but not because I liked its bitter notes.

Anyway that's for recommendations how to choytye best one.

What about tea, I like the taste of Da hong pao.
For everyday drink I buy regular long leaf black tea called Azercay

As a coffee man, what the coffee do you recommend to get maxi pleasure?

What the purpose to drink bad coffee?

Wow, what a cocktail. Never thought about to drink a coffee this way. In my childhood a coffee was unacceptable, later there were two options: with or without milk.

All of modern names, e.g. espresso, americano, latte, I learned when I got older.

btw, how would you name your maple-honey-solt-coffee cocktail?

Do you drink just espresso?

All of these in coffee?

The most pleasure from coffee cup give me milk and sugar. Don't like taste of coffee at all. I'm on tea side.

Anybody's here is this saloon who likes coffee?

In my childhood we always celebrated Xmas on 7th of January. I heard it's because Julian calendar in local churches, but always thought they're two different Xmas dates in different churches.

And I'm one month years old when I discovered no matter the church name they both celebrate Xmas on 25th of December, with exception that Julian calendar is outdated and it reachs 25th of December only on 7th of January.

Some people aren't able to live without control

Is it something spiritual?

Play from smartphone, so it's alittle inconvenient for multitasking.

Bonbon44 and kolotom are really skillful players. Don't know your Eli in classical chess but you feel positional game really great.

What about me, this is my second or third attempt to play Fischer chess and time isy main obstacle. Can't quite evaluate unfamiliar position, however I got a lot of fun. Really appreciate here's my soulmates who like to play chess

Finally chess is getting back to SN.

Converted your UTC to local time - and it's appropriate time for me

The reason I lose some of games.

btw, @ek, can you revive @chess bot? Maybe we (who wants to use it) should zap it in some way?

@chess d5
