English and Chinese Chess! 6 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
Hey guys of this cool website1 Is it possible to have a sort of classic game of chess, either Chinese or English to further promote the main objective of this website? Just wondering if these valuable games (which proven to be helpful in restoring memory losses) could be a part of the future activities.

Well, sound corny, I believe not all can play video games, PS3 or Wii or something. In fact it can build more friendship in other parts of the world. So, maybe members could also meet outdoors since summer is coming, although not really an outdoor sports but parks around the world are filled with chess payers sometimes in summer.

Anyway, just an idea.

I don't much about the Chinese game, but am interested and quite willing to learn. I used to be a decent club-level player of international chess, I could always dust off the board and pieces. I think I still have my old chess clock, though I'd have to look for it.
I think it would be cool to have an evening haunt where we could throw a couple of tables out on a street corner and play and drink beer and chew on yangrou quar into the wee hours.

Thanks for your interest! Well, in that case, you can be the chairman of the club if one would exist later this year. I wish there would be one for Chinese as well, it is funny to know that there is a little similarity of the two, not in movements but in principle.
Playing outdoor is really the best option for this in the coming season and as you suggested, with some things to bite, chew and drink.
