What do you like about checkers?: I enjoy learning more and more as i go. despite its alleged simplicity the game is incredibly complex and rewarding.

KURNIK

Post by Danny_Alvarez »

I persisted with Kurnik , I logged in again and since i did it at midnight my time i found a room with more than 2 players lol (Houston room). I think because of my time difference everytime i look the rooms are empty since yáll fine folk are sleeping.

I have to say that I had a mixed experience. But I will concentrate on the positives. I got progged 3 or 4 times out of 19 games. One by a really low rated player which is surprising.
The best three things i liked about the site are

Number 1. It showed me how rusty I really am. And deflated my ego somewhat :)
Number 2. three-move playing which is something i have never been able to do online before.

If anybody wishes to beat someone up a bit and chat online let me know :)

the third and perhaps most important one is that I've met people from this forum there and that was fantastic. :)
