Hey everyone - an update on the GothamChess board. I've been telling you it will be live October 15 and October 21, and over 17,000 people have clicked on the URL. However... Due to increased demand, the # of stores was recently increased from 250 to 700 to 2650, which is INSANE. And this is causing delays. So... 1. 898 stores (34%) will have the board by November 1. 2. 2100 stores (81%) will have the board by November 19. 3. 2650 stores (100%) will have the board by November 23, before Black Friday. Please keep checking the Walmart website over the next few weeks, and thank you for your support!

Honestly if someone is queen heavy player in low ELOs it makes sense to trade it... As that takes away their most used piece, and probably what they're most comfortable with using.
