Based on the adventures of streamer Eric Rosen, there are number of fun aspects of chess measured :)

Hi all

I briefly heard the concept a few days ago in a stream by IM John Bartholomew. I did not realize at the time it was software. Are you curious what is your "Rosen score" is based on pretty fun stuff in chess?

Kingscrusher verdict: A Brilliant fun concept!

I think it is a brilliant concept to have certain fun aspects of chess emphasized! Maybe chess can be far more than just winning or losing. In the past many players thought that creating beautiful games was more important than winning because those games could be treasured for many years after they were played. But perhaps "Brilliance" can be divided into many fun aspects to try and get into one's games.

Key takeaway points

  • This seems like a lot of fun indeed
  • After it processes, it has all the game links - probably worth saving the HTML page somewhere
  • It would be good if they have a blog report option to just copy and paste the game examples to a blog :)
