04/10/2022 - Enregistrement n° 43 - 00:00 : Approach to hunting - Parallel with chess

MB : I often want to come and chat but I shouldn't do it too often either. Especially since I've already said everything. We can talk about my cooking recipes.
When I said earlier that the exchanges fascinate me, it is not particularly the content of this evening's exchanges but it is, in general, every time I come or even read what is is exchanged on the discord, I find that there is really, I don't know how to express it, that's what I said earlier, a level of enthusiasm, of passion, of everyone's involvement which I actually find fascinating.
To see all these debates that revolve around these enigmas, and the positions that one or the other takes, the reactions that there are opposite, I find it all fascinating yes.
I have a bit of a voyeuristic side, I admit, but it’s true that it’s fascinating.

(Q - aladore: it's true that it's addictive, especially since it's a place where you can exchange with people who are thinking about the same subject, the same problem(s) (s)? It's true that in our close circle, it's not easy, it's true that finding people to talk about it, whether we agree or not, it's true that for us it's very addictive, I think everyone agrees with that )

MB : yes, yes, even I felt it, I didn't feel it all the time but there was a moment when I understood that this kind of exchange could become addictive. Well, fortunately I have to manage to keep quiet as much as possible because otherwise I say too much, I have been criticized enough for that, so it's my antidote in fact, but for someone who is passionate about I think it can actually be very addictive to exchange like that.

(Q - ??: it's a bit like passions in general, you can get lost, you get involved in it and that's it, I'm a chess player and I know people who are lost what...)
(Q - aladore: when passion becomes obsession that's where it can drift)
(Q - ??: yes you have to know how to control...)
(Q - ??: 30 years is a lot for families, for personal life...)


MB : finally a chess game that has lasted for 30 years is not every day. It's a hell of a chess game, it's true.
Besides, in parentheses, I really like this idea of ??chess, I really like it, it ultimately applies quite well to hunting.

(Q - ??: ok, I have to think of a knight, a king, a queen in the hunt?)

MB : no I'm not talking about the pieces but I'm talking about the spirit, the way of,...I played a little bit of chess, very modestly; I'm not a good chess player at all, but I like the mechanics of chess, and when you start, you're not a good player like me and you start to ask yourself questions , we can ask ourselves a lot, about the movement of the pieces, how I should do it,... and this stage of novice in chess sometimes makes one dizzy because we say to ourselves, because we are not all capable of think a certain number of times in advance and above all remember the different possibilities.
It's quite an exercise in chess but when you do it like that as a beginner, you can get dizzy in front of the different possibilities, that's quite comparable to hunting.
All the possibilities that there can be, what piece, why I will choose this rather than something else, so in chess there is a mode of reasoning which applies to a particular strategy, in hunting there is a mode of reasoning which applies to particular puzzles and the way of solving them, but it is true that there are plenty of moments where we can say to ourselves, well yes there are different possibilities, c This is where you have to show as much control as possible.
