crazyishone Member Posts: 1685 From: Registered: 08-25-2004	i guess ur right. no i never played archon... chess is fun for a while, but only when i am really into it. if im half watching tv, or somehting, it just drags on u really have to focus, or be anhiallated. ------------------ It is better to be silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. - Abe Lincoln
