Hi Eric, I am a blind chess player and was just wondering if you’ve ever considered making the PGN files from your educational videos public so a blind player could follow along in an accessible chess engine? To clarify I am physically blind, not a blindfold player

[@LHommeDeCave]

Dirty flag is beating your opponent on time when they're in a winning position Berserk is just a lichess thing (as far as I know) where you take a time deduction for the chance to win bonus points if you win

[@steggyweggy]

@@LHommeDeCave worthy to also note that berserking is only in Lichess tournaments and only gives extra tournament points. It has no effect on rating points given or taken

I won a rapid game today where my opponent flagged and also one where I checkmated my opponent with 0.1 seconds left on my clock. That was more than enough chess for me in one day and I am rated 1200. Watching Eric flag his opponent with 0.09 seconds left on his clock and then he jumps straight into the next game and also berserks is just crazy. Heavy respect I don't think many people could do that.

Hi Eric!! I dont know if you have time to view all you YT comments maybe someone else can help. Is this course still the best to learn the London System if you like Erics material? I see that the variation that you go thru in your other London system videos is really good and is what i want but I cant focus since it is a collaboration with a high pitch voice that hurts my ears.
