>>95885154 (OP)
Thanks. I accidentally set the start time wrong, I meant to do it at 10:00pm PT but the time selection is fucky as shit on com and wants it in PDT which threw me. It also doesn't allow you to edit the start time. So this one at least will take place in the morning lol (for Americans). Let me know if we want to just create a new event that starts later

Can we come up with a hierarchy for team members of the nKKK? Based on seniority and team contributions. Something to do with medieval fantasy would make sense, to go with the knights and kings chess theme. How about wizards and dragons?

You can spend decades studying theory and some random 3 year old from Russia or India could absolutely decimate you.

What's the point in either learning or playing chess if you're never going to be a pro or make money?

It's one of the best games to waste your time on. Other games can feel like a sort of vacuum of meaningless hours, but chess is one of the most difficult and competitive games in the world and every inch of improooovement you make is a source of pride. It's also something of a science which scratches an itch for autists such as myself, there's a major element of study and memorization. You can study chess for ten years and still have loads to learn and get better at.

Note about the tournament, as mentioned in the last thread:
You do need to play 25 games first to be able to join. Just don’t want anyone to be left out and surprised
Participation in the first tournament will probably be pretty low, but it’s early days of this general’s reconstruction. Hopefully our tourneys can rise back to the level of their former glory

I hope they come back and I can make them admins/super admins as the case may be and not have to manage every tourney which I’ve clearly never done before, but yeah for now it seems best to move on and build a new identity
Getz was great at managing tourneys, as an example, but he was last on lichess 2 months ago. It’s probably best to just do our own thing
>>95891649
The 4chan club was discussed in the last thread, apparently we’re not involved with it. This is for specifically /tg/chess/

Again, mostly extinct. Check the arena participation. That’s why it makes sense to start fresh and have a clear picture with an active userbase

/chess/ is extinct due to schizos annoying everyone, a new team will not fix it. The group on vg is killed by catmixer making any sort of online play impossible and scaring away veterans and this tg group is killed because the janny here is a schizo banning everyone for no real reason and stifling and normal, human conversation. Good luck with your new team, tho, but I really doubt it will take off

How is this trolling? Is literally the truth. I'm the guy that made the original weaver team, I haven't been here in months but I see nothing has changed as far as normal conversations go. This is exactly why /chess/ is dead. Completely overrun by schizos, regardless of which board you're on.

No it’s not “regardless of which board” which is why you come off as a bad actor, if you’ve genuinely been swept up in the /vg/ schizo’s narrative I genuinely feel sorry for you, no joke. You’ve been talking mostly to one person for like a year. There are no schizos or overzealous Jannie’s here, it’s one guy who ruined /tg/ and got banned for it and keeps coming back to get banned again and run back to his samefag thread to say “crazy janny!” If you’re being genuine then I apologize for lashing out but our immune system has to be high here to not be destroyed by him again
>>95891716
I did that. It’s unrated so it shouldn’t matter but it at least helps cut down on bad actors who would just quickly join and cheat through everyone to ruin the event. Now they at least have to sink in the time to play 25 clean games and we’ll know if they cheated by comparing performances. Maybe unnecessary

Dude, I've been here since at least 1 year before the lockdown and chess boom, I know exactly how shit was and how it is, don't try to bullshit and gaslight me on things I know very well.
>You’ve been talking mostly to one person for like a year.
Tournaments with 10 players were played just a few months ago. Most of the the og guys active in the tg days played at least a few times in those tournaments. This is easily disproven
>There are no schizos or overzealous Jannie’s here
My man, I've posted here for years, I know quite well that's also a blatant lie. The guy was out of control and he went completely crazy right before people chose to move.
>it’s one guy who ruined /tg/ and got banned for it and keeps coming back to get banned again and run back to his samefag thread to say “crazy janny!
It's literally not. Moderation here was a nightmare and most people choose to switch boards. Let it go with the whole "It's just one guy" nonsense. It really isn't. Yes, catmixer is a whole bag of nuts and I'm sure he's up to samefagging fuckery in the thread, but it's definitely not just him there.
>>95891811
I am really zoombam but I would never accept because:
1.I don't have the time, I'm busy with my job and somewhat being a responsible adult
2.cheesedotcom is a terrible choice imo and not in the spirit of 4chan
3. I really think the janny here is completely nuts and I wouldn't endorse anyone coming back here under his boot

A crackdown occurred because Canadian 1900 was ruining the general with samefagging. I was there too. There is plenty of evidence for this in the archives and it’s already been covered in depth many times. You’re just mistaken. If you were personally affected it’s possible you caught strays but the main issue was a ban evading samefag troll. How do you ban someone like that without accidentally banning a few innocent people? At this point the jannies have zeroed in on him and as soon as he comes here to kvetch he gets permabanned. Nobody else is getting banned.
I’m aware that other people like you are sometimes active on /vg/, it’s seemingly the only active /chess/ thread because that guy is literally always on samefagging at himself. The actual reality is that /chess/ is dead both here and on /vg/, but here is the only actual attempt being made to reconstruct it. You can be part of it if you want, but I’m not going to talk about this anymore. This isn’t going to become like /vg/ where that fuckface is the only topic of discussion.

No it’s not Catmixer. I don’t want to get too much into it because like I said, his entire existence delights in owning /chess/ threads and we don’t want /tg/ to become nothing but a turf war with his thread, but I’ll just cover it in brief real quick and then hopefully we can move on.
In the heyday of /tg/chess/ it was common to post anon blitz links. A guy showed up posts cutesy images and Rapid links, which was dubious because you might be wasting your time against a cheat troll. Sure enough that’s what he was. He got his name by claiming that he once sat down at a random tournament without knowing how to play chess and smoked everyone for an immediate 1900 rating, and that the reason he couldn’t play blitz but was strong in Rapid was because as long as he “thought it through,” despite not being a good player, he could solve the game. He got roundly hounded for this as you can imagine, and switched up from the cutesy images and fun challenges to meanspirited trolling (started calling Karla, after he doxxed her, “Chinderella” and doxxed SeriousChest’s father, etc.) as well as samefagging to derail every thread. This killed /chess/ and almost everyone left, except Canadian 1900 and a few marks like zoombam who thought that when the jannies finally got involved and laid down the hammer, random anons were being persecuted instead of all one guy. This small collective, under Canadian 1900’s guide, migrated to /vg/ where he has been the main poster ever since. And any time /tg/chess/, which he psychotically monitors closely, starts to be active again, he can’t help but meltdown and post here and on /vg/ and everywhere accusing /tg/ of being the actual samefag thread. That’s the full story. Let’s not tell it again.

Sounds a little farfetched, like you're saying some random guy that people knew was cheating and lied about being 1900... was somehow able to convince the entire team to leave with him? And I've heard other people say they were having their own issues with the moderating here, but that played no part? And somehow we know for sure it wasn't catmixer even though he's Canadian and around 1900. Do you think he's still on vg? No one there talks about him from the time I've been there

You can pause this video and see exactly why people left as well as what was being moderated. You story there is complete fiction. Yes there were retards derailing the thread but the janny was banning people for trivial stuff which had nothing to do with doxxing or thread disruption. People left(and not just a few, most of them) because of the insane moderation. This is exactly what killed tg /chess/, not the shitposting. Tg /chess/ survived the conzy wall era, joey posting wasn't as disruptive. The janny banning everyone was. And this wasn't just friendly fire. this went on for years and only got harsher the more people complained. There were polls that you can still find in the archive about this
>This small collective
If that was trully a small collective, then it would mean most people stayed. Where are they?
>everywhere accusing /tg/ of being the actual samefag thread
because the posting frequency here is much lower than on vg? Are you telling me a samefagger posts more than an organic comunity where most of the original posters remained ?
Why do you lie like this? Like, what's the point? There are archives, clearly people that were active back then can still come and call you out on it. Why even go though this charade?

>And I've heard other people say they were having their own issues with the moderating here, but that played no part?
Almost like he didn’t put his name neatly in the namefield and the entire purpose of samefagging is to act like different people.
Or this
>If that was trully a small collective, then it would mean most people stayed. Where are they?
In response to a post explaining everyone left.
The Canadian 1900 is also a notorious retard as well as a thread-disrupting bad actor who likes to pretend he’s other people, so excuse me if I again assume it’s you.

He is and is as schizo, if not more so, than this one here who invented his own tg history. Almost certainly samefags , when the tournaments pick back up reemerges with a new persona and scares away all the veterans, completely killed any thread challenges.

Also you say stuff like this as though you have insider info. If you're the janny why don't you just say so? I think it would be more productive for everyone here to have an open line of communication with you. Some people apparently hold resentment towards you that needs to be vented out a bit so the healing can start.

I already addressed that innocent people might have banned, most of it was him lying about being other people to justify the move to /vg/, but anyone else that caught strays simply lived in a chaotic time here while they sorted it out. You’re posting here and not banned as you can clearly see.

The janny was so crazy he used to post bait in order to ban people ffs. He was posting some ultra liberal take or news and banning everyone disagreeing with him. Every conversation about anything politically incorect meant a 3 day ban(and no, i don't mean slurs, I mean just approaching the subject). Every picture or meme that he didn't like was a 3 day ban. This canada guy had no impact on people leaving. I don't even remember him. Samefagging had nothing to do with people leaving. Doxxing had nothing to do with people leaving. The people left due to the insane moderation, which was deliberate and not friendly fire like you claim.

Common, I've been nothing but respectful towards you. And your response is to call me stupid and call me Canadian (the bigger insult). Again, being wrongfully banned should never happen and apparently it happened to multiple people, thats unacceptable, you should be able to agree with that. And now you're saying most people weren't actually getting banned and it was the Canadian guy pretending to be them so it never happened... that is truly the definition of farfetched. People have valid criticism and your response is oh they were all the same person the whole time so it never happened. Thats some next level gaslighting, I'm starting to think you're approaching this conversation in bad faith.

I think its important for you to acknowledge people's feelings as valid, we're all trying to grow as people, thats why we play chess

I don't think I'm the smartest guy ever, but I'm approaching this in good faith and really trying to understand. It just seems no one else agrees with you on what happened. The proof you posted was some guy saying Cinderella over and over, I don't even see the relation, he was doxxing someone? Ya thats bad... and other people here probably agreed it was bad. How did other people end up getting banned mistakenly? You're still saying that never happened?

It really doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner, but most beginners are recommended to play e4 as white and and e5 as black to get open games and develop various fundamentals. Once you get stronger and as you go along you’ll develop a more personal repertoire

No they want money. They think that if you are high skilled in something as difficult as chess than you'll eventually land a job that gives you (and her) lot of money. They want the easy life while you do all the difficult things.

Maybe because it's unusual compared to typical e4 e5 openings that all have fairly similar themes. The absolute mainline looks like novice players fooling around - preventing recapture by putting the queen in front of the king and then the other side does the same to relieve it and then Ba6 for another pin on the c4 pawn. Black seems to also be on the brink of getting counterplay.
