Can you play chess?

I would not like to play that game. It looks complicated and it'll probably bore me to death, with the extensive thinking you have to do in it.
 
Anyone who is good a chess and has a yahoo account, maybe we can play of these days when I have free time. :P
 
I do know how to play. Played plenty of board games over the years.
Can't say I'm particularly good at it though.
 
I used to play a load of chess. In school we used to play it all the time on our lunch breaks and I still play it quite a lot now in work on my phone.
I love the Queen’s side Gambit, probably my all time favorite opening. I used to play for the school team and everything. I was the chess champion in my high school 3 years running.
 
Used to like it until I got into actual, real chess. Like memorizing loads of openings and in general scrounging for a draw in a lot of cases because it becomes a game of "who makes the only mistake" at one point.
 
Yes, but not that well. I enjoy it though.

Used to be on yahoo games all the time back in the day. Do they still have a game section on their website?

-Edit- Nope, they dissolved it in 2016.

Yahoo used to be a hub for everything, now they're quite sad...

As for chess, no. I tried a few times, but I just never really got into it enough to learn proper offense or defense strategies.

Do you still play Chess? I would usually be overconfident and say I'll beat the shit out of you, but since I'm not that good at it, I'll only say that I'll modestly win. ^-^ (Jk, but it'll be fun).

Not really. I don't think I've ever played it IRL, just on computers and phones. Once you memorize what each piece can do, its a pretty easy game.

What? Did you say "what each piece can do"? Do you mean the openings? NO ONE MEMORIZES SOMETHING AS LITTLE AS THEIR FUNCTIONS
