Well, funnily enough. I think I have only lost one or two in that time. I was known to be pretty good. I genuinely wasnt paying the slightest bit of attention this morning!
I received Chess Master for Nintendo as a gift along with a stack of about seven other games one year, for Christmas. It probably sat for a year unopened because that's not really something you should be giving an 80's kid for Christmas. That's the type of shit you could beat up for by the other kids.
So anyway, eventually I picked it up. Didn't know what I was doing but it had a feature that showed all possible moves when you picked up a piece. From there, before the age of ten, I had taught myself how to play.
That sounds like an awesome game for learning on. I had a cheap old plastic set that my brother had before me and never used with utterly vague instructions. I used play about myself until someone challenged me when I was about 11 or 12 and I whupped them good and solid and I realised all that time staring at it and working out what could move where had really helped me.
Although I must say, I was appallingly bad at actually closing a game back then. They would go on and on and on"
Could charge an arm and a leg; then one has something to feed the foxes. In the industry, we call that a "Positive Feedback Loop."
Wow! A perfectly crafted corny joke!
Bang, you nailed it. It came back on itself like a Texan eating tofu!!
It's been a good day.
I'd kick your ass at chess, by the way. I haven't lost a game in over twenty years.

Did you know if you send "@fbchess play" to anyone in Facebook messenger, the two of you can then play chess right in the messenger... ?
This is what made some doodle artists rich, Boomy you should get in the nft too, it's crazy how some sell their stuff
It certainly looks like quite the arena to make a buck or two on. Not sure I would manage anything though, lol
