I used to be a sort-of prodigy at chess when I was really young. Parents tell me that I was undefeated at the game when I was 5 years old (and that was playing real rounds of chess with adults who weren't too bad at it themselves). I remember spending hours every day playing digital chess games/training programs and reading every single chess book in my local library. For some reason, though, around the time I turned eleven or twelve I dropped off from playing it, and now it's been almost two years since I sat down and played a real game with someone. Kinda wished I had committed myself to maintaining the skill I had when I was younger... but what happened, happened. I want to start getting back into it - may buy a good chess program or two soon and start practising regularly again (hopefully I'll have enough time in the near future to practice...).

Chess.com is always a great place to practice! (And maybe play a game or two against me. ;D)
Dreams, dreams are untapped and writhing. How much more real are dreams than that paltry existence which we now call reality? How shall we ascend to that which humanity is destined? By mastering the dreamworld of course. That is how, my pupils, that is how.

I'll very most likely be making an account on Chess.com soon. And I'd be down to doing a round or two with you sometime  ;D

Life is too short to rush through it.

There is actually such a game... I've heard about it before.

I won a round. Against some strangers (NoOoBs!) Took twenty minutes. But I could multitask.
