Phanerothyme   12 #4 Posted January 26, 2019 We could have an online tournament. I'm crap at chess, but enjoy being beaten by anyone slightly better than me. Getting resoundingly thrashed by people much better than me is less fun, and doesn't really improve my chess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
