i was on the rugby team, cricket team n the chess team

I wason the CHess team.

I wish I'd paid more attention in school tbh.

School was shite.

I was on the Rugby team, an did Shot and Discus

Foil is okay, but when you get to try Epee shits lit. Used go home covered in bruises cause it was 'stab anywhere, hard as you like rules`

tbh i didnt even really know have the rules of chess either i was just weirdly good at it

went to District and County a couple times

adults can learn most of late high school in about 8 weeks

it's drip fed to kids because they're dumb and easily distracted, and they're working on things like social skills as well

We weren't

@Ruger I knew a lad like that. Would beat people because he kind of just knew what move to play. Knew fuck all about Chess

aye p much

I thought kids could learn shit faster than adults...

They can.

i somehow always pulled some bs out my ass and won

they learn faster, but they can't teach themselves

Usually it's to do with the ability to see moves ahead not the move you're doing now.

when/if you have kids, you'll see precisely what i mean by that

If

ended up getting minched a few times by niggas that actually knew how to play n i wasnt interested enough to get better so i just quit

chess isn't a very interesting game anyway

anyone used to be good at ping pong

aye its a bit shit tbh

Aye

I like Chess, just in short bursts.

like

considering at the time Doom was just released like

if you just play it casually, it's whatever right

but if you play it at any "higher" level, it's just learning patterns

and i had a PC at home

and then it's very boring and autistic

i like chess, occasionally, but my brother used to beat me all the time so I have a certain tentative negativity toward it
