RicOlie_2

No, that's what darth_ender did. It is pointless though, but whatever.

I've figured out how to use the software, and it looks like it's a good one for beginners. I need to get a better feel for how the pieces move, but that will come with practice. So, I guess I'm ready enough to begin a game.

The election is not yet over, so I am bumping this thread.

In other words you abstain from the vote. Thank you for telling me that anyway. ;)

The reason there are two threads is that my computer was acting up and I just thought my first click hadn't registered, so I clicked the post button again and ended up with a second thread.

Oh, I see. But Ric was just Ric Olie. Not Rick, or Richard, or Dick Olie, or anything like that.

Ric was also a Dic

 How dare you!! Ric was a handsome, observant man. You don't catch on very quick at all.

What does "AFAIK" mean (I might have missed a letter). It's one I've seen around a fair bit.

Your guess for the first one is correct, and it is one Frink is fond of using. The other one I'm not sure about.

That's a question you should be asking in that thread, not this one.

LOL, nice try! We all know it means "Get TV's Frink Out".

Oh, and by the way Frink, this edit is what brought me to OT.com. I had never heard of it previously, so thank you for that.

 So I'm to blame?

;-)

Yeah. So complain to yourself about me trying to replace Ric. ;)

Are you adding these to the OP? I'm pretty sure that most people aren't going to see these if you don't.

That wasn't nice Frink. I know what that one means.

I downloaded the program. I'll figure out how to use it later. :)

Yes, I have played chess a fair bit, though I wouldn't say I'm good at it. I can play it though.

I agree with darth_ender (and Warb, I was just light-heartedly teasing you about your grammar, so please don't take it the wrong way because we're not trying to gang up on you).

On an almost completely unrelated note, I wish there was an emoticon with its tongue sticking out and a smiley face at the same time.

It certainly sounds interesting, but I'm terrible at playing games without seeing the board as I'm playing, and I don't know how to create a simulation or call moves properly (I could learn the latter fairly easily, but I still wouldn't be able to play it without the board).

EDIT: If you provide screenshots then I would be willing to play if you taught me how to call moves.

Oh, and by the way Frink, this edit is what brought me to OT.com. I had never heard of it previously, so thank you for that.

I don't get the Obi-Wan thing either, but it will be really funny in ARH.

"Of course Obi-Wan knows Obi-Wan, Obi-Wan is Obi-Wan."

Yeah. It's an in. Thing these days. You aren't cool. Unless you type. Like this.

Only if you read it as a word. I usually read acronyms as individual letters, unless they spell a word or something similar.

I'm bumping this thread because, being the most important thread in off topic, it deserves to be at the top.

I wasn't sure if I should tell you guys, but I've finally decided that you deserve to know that I am RicOlie_2.

I thought 1080p was good :P...shows you how much I know.
