Yep, I tried to make it funny rather than tragic (how I felt at the time lol). Even licensed the instrumental for SAD by XXXtentacion for that part. Appreciate the support Sparrow!
When chess players play blindfold they already know the starting position. Arguably you could have left your blindfold off before placements to know the starting position and equaled their feat; instead you went one better. Impressive stuff!
Yes! I love a good challenge and really wanted to set the difficulty level as high as possible to make it a great feat. Honestly, I wasn't sure if this was doable at all when I conceived it, inspired by Magnus Carlsen taking on 3 opponents simultaneously blindfolded. Who knows, if the video does well, I might try it with 2 simultaneous games ;)
In chess blindfold tournaments they have empty board in front of players and that may be some help for them. You can try at least to have a game board in front of you.
But… I already did it without any board ;) thanks for the comment, it was all freestyled but I think it’s the most impressive version of this challenge that is realistic for me
That second game is hilarious, the comedy of Julia having to relay every piece of bad news while it registers for you is amazing
