Chess

[MontRose]

Hello friends,

 

Anyone here play chess? I'm not very good but I like to get on lichess.org sometimes and play (app or site).

 

Also, just curious if anyone knows of any highly-rated JW players?

Hi Daniel, 

Welcome to our forum, glad you joined us! 

I have been playing chess for some years now, but I am no Grandmaster. I played for a while on Lichess, but I prefer Chess.com. There are probably some very good chess players here on JWtalk.  I have a cool chess board we can play on!

Hi, brothers and sisters. I have an account in chess.com, if anyone wants to be friends with me, I have an account on it. Chat me privately to add me. I am quite novice at it, my Bible instructor teach me well at this—and also at Jehovah. 😁 His account, also in chess.com, and also message me for the name of his. Add us! Additionally, all my friends in chess.com are Jehovah's Witnesses, so being cautious about adding friends in chess.com from my account is lessen.

I play "Chess with Friends" so I can just put a few moves in when I have a moment to do so.  I'd gladly play anyone who is on there, or something similar to that...

Play “Chess.com” instead, brother Jeremy. Go private message me and I will send an invite link for you to add me as a friend. ♟️

Hah! Funny to come across the Chess topic today. I switched on an old movie right in the middle of a chess game that had the most beautiful chess set, it made me want to play. But only if I had that set to use!

 

My mother seemed pretty good…but what do you know when you’re 10. She taught me and we played on and off for a couple years, but it just never captured my attention in a firm way. It’s funny and intriguing what truly captures the minds attention.
