I used to love playing chess as a kid, but unless I would throw games fairly often, none of the other kids and most adults wouldn't play me. I wasn't a gloating or bad winner, but people don't like losing all the time.

I almost always win all strategy games unless I intentionally handicap myself or just outright throw them. When the people I am playing "win", a lot of them do gloat, which is annoying and when they then stop winning, they usually won't play anything again.

On my profile under hobbies, I mention that I'm a club-level chess player. I'm not a master by any means, but I definitely enjoy the game.

I like chess, but can rarely find anyone that wants to play it.


Proudly banned from the NTA.

I taught my whole 'hood to play and we would lay around under the trees and play all summer long, sunup to sundown.

Played a few games in my day, however it became boring when I won all the time, then had to chase after friends to beat on some more !! They usually beat me back after getting the hang of it !!

Never gloated in public about it though, like some here but some here gloat about anything they write !!

I used to really enjoy playing chess, especially while drinking beer. Eventually ran out of people to play with. Last time I had a game was my brother-in-law 9 years ago and he wasn't any good, so the game wasn't very interesting.

That’s a fine looking chess set. I haven’t played in many years . I forget how.

I don’t even play video games much anymore.

I like a challenging game of “scrub the bathtub” or “dust the livingroom” nowadays

I can hold my own for 3 or 4 moves, before getting destroyed. crazy
I don't think my brain is even capable of planning the next move after the move I'm struggling on.
