Notable Game

Reti vs. Schubert, 1915

gollark: The situation is better than you think, because the majority of people actually seem to care *less* than you and do fewer things.
gollark: Yes. Which it doesn't have. Because certain palaiologoses revoked it here.
gollark: And it has a webhook mode, but it's not available in here due to lol no manage webhook perms.
gollark: ABR just doesn't bridge edits.
gollark: It is meant to operate in webhook mode. This is a somewhat bad fallback.
