Hope this helps Re: Chess Community Center Geeks' Lounge by jbennet people play chess by post (snail mail) a game can take like a year. i also never get how N means Knight in chess notation (i just sent you a pm by the way josh, you should get msn or something, its better than PMing) Re: Chess Community Center Geeks' Lounge by Sturm aww...come one! Chess by mail is not bad! You do not focus all your attention on it. For example you could have 20 games simultaneously and do reasonably well. (of course you would have to have 20 chess boards...)

Re: Chess Community Center Geeks' Lounge by jwenting and yes, I play. On and off for the last 25 years or so. Currently off for lack of opponents (I don't like chess clubs, am not interested in competition play which is all they're interested in to the extent that often members won't play outside the club competition). Re: Chess Community Center Geeks' Lounge by ndeniche i started playing when i was like 7 or so... i even bought a hand made chess set in rome, that represents a battle between romans and barbarians in metal pieces... pretty cool...

Re: Chess Community Center Geeks' Lounge by joshSCH Why play chess on daniweb? It would be much more interesting, faster, and exciting to play through another source. (Yahoo maybe) Re: Chess Community Center Geeks' Lounge by joshSCH I have AIM, MSN, and yahoo :D Yea, why do people play chess via mail? Thats so boring! I'm impatient as hell, so there's no way I could ever do something like that. Re: Chess Community Center Geeks' Lounge by ndeniche that's why they invented phones... to stop playing chess via mail... :P Re: Chess Community Center Geeks' Lounge by joshSCH Why do 20 chess games all at once, all very slowly?

At that time I was really bad at chess so I didn't win very often. Lol.
