Then I can't guess your username for chess.com lol

Was there a Picard Maneuver? Lol

I guess I can surmise that either you don't play on chess.com or your user is not "picardmaneuver" all one word all lower case.

... Or you are gaslighting me... :/

And I thought I had come up with a unique handle when I signed up for Lemmy... But I guess I shouldn't underestimate Star Trek fans. They're everywhere.

Also, damn! That Picard has been playing on chess.com since 2012! I only got into chess in the post-pandemic boom. I wish I had when I was a kid, but I didn't appreciate the game like I do now.
