Chess - I feel so smart, plus I love the memory of my father teaching me how to play in my Aunt's basement with this blue sea glass set, and I can't beat Scott at checkers so yeah.

I enjoyed chess, so I chose that. But the competitve nature drove me away, so eh.

They're both boring, but checkers is twice as bad. So chess? I've not played in forever.

Chess, although I haven't played in a while going by the dust building up
on my 2150L Electronic Chess Board. Maybe I should start playing on-line

Chess. Chess has much more strategy to it in my opinion, and has a more prestigious feel to it.


Thats what i was going to say Chess becuase it has more straegy and is more of a challenge to play becuase of all the different ways to move and options unlike Checkers where they are basically all pawns.

That 2150L has an opening move library of 6000 half moves; impressive  8)
