@Lifecoach5000
I'd be interested in principle I should probably but I've never played online before and am kinds nervous. )I also don't know how well I play or what my rating is, since I haven't played any rated players before. I keep hanging a rook or gift-wrapping my queen for my opponent to take, stupid mistakes like that. I should probably go practice a few hands before playing against you.

I wonder if there's a way to get s resetting posting straight bots.

Well that seems rather cheating for a Chess 960 tournament (position 518!)

@chestas
I'm going to take a stab at the possibilities.
Possibly you are able to transfer the skills, but you don't have the same drive when you play other games. As you say, you don't take them seriously. Perhaps it is because of this that you lose?
Or possibly you have honed your skills to be very specific, so that you can't apply them to other games and you don't have that same level of comfort and familiarity? (Hence my love of .)

I won my match! ๐Ÿฅณ

With a comeback from a really bad position, I manage to end up justifying my suspicious space grabbing in the opening with a strong attack.

Here's the finale for you. White to play and win.

Wish me luck.

Yay!

Now I'm the only leader in the Chess960 League, 1 point ahead with 3 rounds to go.
Let's enjoy the 1st place while I can ๐Ÿ˜…

This week I'll face FlokiTheCat, who won the league back in season 9 and has made it to the podium in 6 different seasons. Something tells me the audience will root for them. I'm but a newcomer to the League ๐Ÿ˜ณ

This starting position is just one transposition away from having such a pleasing symmetry.

TCEC may be over, but Carlsen is playing a tournament on lichess as we speak :) lichess.org/@/DrNykterstein/tv
