This is a casual 3+2 blitz game I played against Simen, an attendee at the Oslo, Norway meetup held on Oct. 8, 2017 at Stjernen Chess Club (http://skstjernen.no/). Simen had someone record the game, and he later shared this footage with me. Simen told me this was his first-ever over-the-board (OTB) chess game despite having played thousands of games online! This was music to my ears because I’m always encouraging online players to seek out OTB opportunities.
