| General Chess Discussion - Delay instead of Increment#23 @Onyx_Chess to be honest I can't find a prove of my own words, but possibly because I heard about it from Sergei Shipov who used to be Kasparov's second long time ago. In believe, delay used to be fai… | wasilix |
| General Chess Discussion - Delay instead of Increment#14 @Onyx_Chess funny that you use Garry Kasparov in your argument against the delay whereas Garry himself has always been one of the biggest proponents for Bronstein's delay. At least when he actually pl… | wasilix |
| Off-Topic Discussion - Memory Tests#2 So, I had nothing better to do (says a lot about me, I know), and did these tests one time each. Reaction: 381ms Visual memory: 14 points Number memory: 12 digits Verbal memory: 134 points Typing: 69 … | wasilix |

| Game analysis - I played a 3056 IM! And I *was* strategically winning!#7 @Mana-Burn Well, congrats :) It doesn't seem all that impressive because of his goofing and TC being bullet, but I understand where you are coming from. Good on you :) | wasilix |
| General Chess Discussion - Help me teach people how/when to resign!!!#19 @Stefanxd to @p-wnattack's defense, the game you dug up isn't showing any ill intent on his part. Getting a second queen seems like an easy and faster way to convert to a linear checkmate comparing to… | wasilix |
| General Chess Discussion - Help me teach people how/when to resign!!!#7 @p-wnattack allow me to reiterate: The solution to other people "wasting" your time is wasting even more time. As a side effect, I saw this so many times, when such a brilliant strategist would start … | wasilix |
