ian plays at local chess meetups he's definitely goated

Ian is a rapist and a pedophile

Hes also an all around manipulative and horrible person

@Vanilla_Town congrats!
You beat a player 2 years ago.
That player beat another player.
After 6 degrees of separation, you beat Magnus Carlsen.

Accidentally joined a chess 960 tournament.
That's where the first row of pieces are totally randomized.
I have no idea what I am doing.
6252 players.

You are winning though. Nice job

I checked your profile to see what is going on, it looks like you are playing like 6 games at once? That's pretty funny

We can play Chess960 with you to get you ramped up if you like. The point is just to prevent people from playing memorized openings, that's why the format exists. So think of it as a general chess strategization game - you still want to get your pieces to good positions, control the center, trade well, create attacking threats etc. But you can't rely on the board state to be in some predictable position that you can memorize options for

I think it is a great idea invented by the greatest chess player to ever do it

I never heard of this "960" guy.

Thanks, but I have enough games for now.
BTW I am in first place in my group.
But that will end fast. The best I can hope for is 3rd or maybe 2nd place.
It's single elimination. So I will be out soon.
