So...this is what defeat feels like...

[The Spawn]

I just got my ass handed to me in a game of online checkers.

Should I care more or less since this wasn't chess?

 

[The Lizard]

It depends ---- Are you still putting forth the internet persona that is supposedly an undefeatable juggernaut of mental precision and martial arts skills?

 

[Danalys]

"I will, therefore, take occasion to assert that the higher powers of the reflective intellect are more decidedly and more usefully tasked by the unostentatious game of draughts than by a the elaborate frivolity of chess. In this latter, where the pieces have different and bizarre motions, with various and variable values, what is only complex is mistaken (a not unusual error) for what is profound. The attention is here called powerfully into play. If it flag for an instant, an oversight is committed resulting in injury or defeat. The possible moves being not only manifold but involute, the chances of such oversights are multiplied; and in nine cases out of ten it is the more concentrative rather than the more acute player who conquers. In draughts, on the contrary, where the moves are unique and have but little variation, the probabilities of inadvertence are diminished, and the mere attention being left comparatively unemployed, what advantages are obtained by either party are obtained by superior acumen."

Wow, Lizard....that was worded quite...nicely.

And I didn't lose, I just wanted to know what it felt like to start a thread like this where something happens in my life and I HAVE to go post about it...I'd post some examples that I've seen here but we all know what I'm talking about.

But, let us pretend I never said all that ^

The answer is "yes" Lizard.

I once beat a Russian State Champion in a Chess match. It was very intense. He was all calm at first but then I started shouting insults at him that I picked up from the Russian Urban dictionary. Then he started crying and asking for his mommy to come and help him.

****ing 10 year olds. Always *****ing.
