Welcome! Do you play chess online (Lichess or Chess.com)? If so, what’s your score?

[-] MohammedTheCommunistPalestinian@hexbear.net 23 points 8 months ago

1300 Elo

Wish I can play more

You too 💕

Nice. I also wish I could play more. I sit around 1100-1200 lichess score which I think equates to something like 800 elo. Feels like there's a big wall around this point where you gotta actually know what you're doing to climb higher lmao

Ever tried Go?

Yes once on the internet but I legit don’t know the rules of that game

It's very tricky to get into, but I find it very satisfying to play once you're over that initial hump. I joined a random tabletop sim lobby once at like 4AM where a very experienced player was just teaching newbies how to play, which was great.
