In post 203, Thestatusquo wrote:You guys are both out of your minds. Are you talking about the World Mornington Crescent Association? Those guys are steeped in their own dusty standards and can't get out of their own way. The only sanctioning body worth listening to is World Association of Mornington Crescent, and they firmly back the Yardsman Variation.

Okay, I don't know what any of these things are, but I would be very surprised if Shea isn't trolling here.

In post 598, animorpherv1 wrote:If chess wins, I'm going to have to ponder about why. Seriously.

It might have something to do with the fact that chess has been the most popular game in, if not the world, then certainly the western hemisphere for over 1500 years. It's a purely strategic game where each player is completely in control of his own fate, meaning that if you win, lose, or draw, you do so entirely on your own terms and due to your own skill. It has inspired countless works of art, is considered by many to be art itself, and when played expertly, such as here, here, and here, has an undeniable beauty that can be appreciated by amateurs and professionals alike.
