In the chess forum here, it seems that new posting isn't allowed (for me, at least). The button to make a new thread is gone and the buttons to post in threads are gone. This is a change from just some hours ago, and I'm not seeing this in any other forum. The threads there aren't locked, though they are behaving as if they were.

I would PM the mod there, but he hasn't posted there in over 2 weeks, and hasn't posted on this site in 5 days, so I don't know how long it would be until he responded. Also, I think there are others that would want to know what's going on if this isn't just something I'm experiencing.

Feel free to make fun of the 'chess club' too so this thread doesn't feel out of place in ATF.

I put something in the mod forum for the admins to take a look too. I don't think there was any talk of shutting it down.

Probably a misclick.

That's what I think as well. I've fixed it; hopefully I didn't just undo something I shouldn't have.

I was going to say 5 y.o. but was embarassed so went w 7. Wouldn't be at all surprised if there are plenty of 5 y.o. prodigies that could whoop me.

I suppose I should read Chess for Dummies so I'd at least have a chance v. my computer.

Sounds like Howard hasn't read the "How many 5 year olds..." thread.

How about resurrecting the chess forum with new variants?



And: how many 5 year olds do you need to figure this out?

A bit, didn't 'grab' me.

A 5 y.o. Vulcan would crush me.
