Lets take footballers. Every second, you see them fighting or arguing with the referee. A fooball cost's £.3.00 and to chess is a game where you think ahead and learn.

Wonder?

Dear Chandradi, what some of the posters tried to make clear was:

If you post a new thread, please try to state in clear words about what you want to discuss, or post a link to an article where somebody does it.

If you however post a fragment of a sentence as title and do not eluicidate in the following you invite people to see the thread as a joking playground.

In the case of this thread a verb and perhaps some punctuation would have done the job:

exempli gratia:

* Chess IS for educated people!

* Chess is ONLY for educated people !

* Chess is necessary for educated people.

* Is chess for educated people?

* There is a special kind of chess for educated people.

*...

As a suggestion for a text in the starting post "discuss" would have sufficed. But people in general and educated people especailly do expect something.

One note: To order people by IQ is a very dangerous thing. Mine is 144 and I have a certificate, but it brings me nowhere near master level at chess.

Well yes and no. 😕
It's a lot of things, spacial perception, problem solving, experience, and intelligence. Mostly I think it is the first and third in the list. 🙂 😕

It's about being so limited in scope, you only care about 32 on an 8x8, more than anything else IMO😕

One of my favorite players is close to 2000, was an average of 2100 for 11 ...[text shortened]... !" 😞

Also it was much much sexier when SJ247 asked it.

In conclusion Trev, your mom. 😛
... along with a thimble full of imagination and a bucket or two of patience.

No, as a certified idiot myself, I am well equipped to identify other idiots. You'd be surprised at the number of idiots that are blissfully unaware of their idiocy until I 'xplain things to them.

I'm sure I'm not nearly as smart as you are my incoherent little friend.

I'll be charitable and assume that you're not the total fool that you appear to be. Instead, I'll accept that I need to make allowances for you given that you have obviously suffered major head trauma at some point.

Ok I want to see the paper work on you being a certified idiot. I personally think it is an insult, and big put down to the real idiots. 😛

Have you started yet? 24 days left, you better get cracking.
