Hey fellow thinkers,

You don't have to be on the forums for much to realize the incredible intelligence and acuteness of most of its members. The simple fact of having signed up here means you are the critical 1%.

To tickle your brains, sometimes more so than when debating, I would like to institute a small chess club. Of course free of charge, anyone (from newbies to grand masters) will be able to interact in this alternative incredible form.

I've been personally a self taught player for about two years now with over 20 days of playing time (28336 minutes and counting).

 

Anyone feel free to comment down below and if we get enough interest I will start setting everything up.

 

PS. Group link: https://en.lichess.org/team/philosophic-chess- based on lichess.org

Sounds like a great idea to me. :)

 

I'm assuming it would all be done digitally?

Indeed I've been using lichess which is in my opinion the best (free) chess platform, chess.com is constipated with ads and so on. Lichess.org is fully free, available in app and incredibly functional.

I just made a group, whomever just sign up and apply through this link: https://en.lichess.org/team/philosophic-chess

Where did you get that stat from? 20 days of playing time?

added my chess.com + lichess.org + FICS stats. I only recently started using almost exclusively lichess.org.

Heh, added you! If you're online now we can have a quick game.

Whenever you are ready. Nonetheless I must say that you will probably find no challenge on me, since I am a decent player at best.

Howdy guys, the group is doing well. Been playing a lot with truth_seeker (Ferssitar I believe).

Just small update for the community and a lil bump for the thread :P

Anyone else interested in playing or even learning I highly suggest joining. Chess is cognitive dead lifting!

A FDR follower recently pinged me on lichess asking to be part of this group we started over a year ago. 

Let's get this thread back to the top so more may join in the fun.
