Funny corner

There are all sorts of jokes about Chuck Norris's anniversary, one of which was related to mind games: Chuck Norris can win the Four in a Row game in three moves!

Prime Minister Taavi Rõivas at a press conference on August 4, 2016: "In politics, it is wise to behave more like a chess player than a checker and to think more moves ahead than just one." (37:10)

Chuck Norris can beat Sasuke in 14 moves

Rõivas doesn't know anything about checkers then

I think that if a man as smart as Taavi said that, then no one knows anything about checkers or chess. Not to mention Excel.

In checkers, it is possible to win in two moves, like, for example, a shepherd boy in chess.

In chess, you can checkmate in two moves, in checkers you probably won't be able to take all the pieces so quickly or create a position where you lose (without surrendering). You can surrender in almost any game without making any moves yourself.

To ensure that people don't just pass in the game rooms, but play, after refusing to play 5 times (to different users), the score could be immediately deducted minus one hundred points, so that players with lower ratings could also play and there would be less passing.

There's nothing wrong with the idea itself, you could present it somewhere other than the Funny Corner. But there's one BUT of course. There could also be a reason for refusing, that I don't want to play games with a 2-minute time control or a 60-minute time control. And in addition, maybe there's no point in playing games if the coefficient is 500...1000 units plus or minus. A proposal was once made on this topic itself that those who prefer different time controls would have different rooms, then the time incompatibility would disappear. But this idea was incomprehensible to others. Well, the room is currently full of people to whom it's impossible to make an offer at all. So this passing and also the refusal are unfortunately written in.

also makes you frown in the joke corner
