    I think the Chess board could definitely do with someone with a keen interest like yourself to look after things...

    Admins?

    It aint that punny but,

    There was a man and his dog playing chess on a park bench. Soon, there was a crowd around the two. One woman proclaimed, "That dog is so smart! How did you teach him to play chess?" The man answered, "He's not that smart...he's losing 3 games to 1."

    Doesn't seem like he's been knighted as of yet... maybe you could take a rook when you have the chance.

    I'll just go back to polish my bishop, oho!

    So if the initial hype hasn't died down yet anyone still interested in either playing chess or starting a dedicated thread to **** chess jokes which will probably end up stickied (anything for traffic) should follow the links in my sig

    If there's enough interest from beginners who wanted to learn a few of the experienced players could easily help you improve your game by lashing up a few tips or playing you and seeing where you went wrong

    How about organizing an on-line chess match ? Like correspondence chess.

    I got past page one of this thread and immediately the song "Bad Losers on Yahoo Chess" by Half-Man Half-Biscuit sprang to mind.
