It may be just me but....
I didn't start playing chess untill i was 25.
Before then i was a machine in the bedroom. I never had any problems picking up dates.
And i considered "bedroom" time to be the best thing there was.
But....after starting chess i got to a 1400 level and now i don't want "bedroom" time....I even reject it. To me it's "work" now.
All i want is to get better and better at chess.
It may be just me though.
Originally posted by chessisvanityI like making sacrifices in chess, but I draw the line at making them in the bedroom.
i could give up "business time" for chess easy....but if i did....i would expect a rating increase.
Also I think you should be given bonus rating points if you ever make that type of choice.
He he, this topic reminds me of a time I was in bed with an old girlfriend and said to her that I had a surprise for her and she was quite excited and says "oh yes, that sounds like fun" and I brought out my mini chess board and taught her how to play.
She seemed strangely unimpressed by my gesture, it was like she was expecting something else.
