I am currently playing a game against an opponent rated >100 above me and am in the lead material wise. I am currently praying to both the god of war (THOR) and the god of Chess (KASPAROV) for enlightenment and guidance to win the game.

Does this count as outside assistance?? 😵

Keep in mind that if they like your opponent better, they may be giving you bad advice so the opponent wins. Caveat emptor.

Jesus has told me he is a fan of the Modern Benoni - as He speaks, so shall it be.

The last I heard, Kasparov is kind of busy right now trying to straighten our Russia, and I think Thor is actually the god of thunder.

But, Good luck!!

If they answer it's called schizophrenia.

this could be a problem as i am also beginning to take the lead against a mid 1400 rated player too. I think this praying lark might be worth another go 😀

even if i do get sent to an institution it will be worth it cause they always have chess boards and i could just play against myself and always win 😀

She's trying to gloss over the embarrassing fact that she doesn't understand the Hodge Conjecture.

By the way, you made a grammatical error. 😲

Nonsense! I understood the words "positive integer" and "specifically." I think that was it, though. 😛
