Yes, but very poorly. I get tunnel visioned on my plan and pivot poorly.

I know the rules, and can play fine against people who play casually, but I'd lose to anyone who plays it seriously.

Younger me would likely beat older me, but yes.

Still remember how to play, but don't remember any strategies.

This. I know a couple defense formations but if you break through it, I'm done for. I love playing chess but I'm so awful at it.

I do. I quit sophomore year of High School do to a disagreement with the coach. And I think I was getting tired of it anyway. Almost a shame though, cause I was at my highest rating ever then (though still not impressive)

My goal is to stalemate or run out the clock for the other guy depending on the rules we are going by. Since I can never finish.

I know the rules and can maybe pull off a queen's gambit if given the opportunity.

I win much more than I lose against casual players. But against really good people, I lose much more than I win.

I play a bit. Took it up a while ago and have periods where I play a bunch and try to get better and other times when I dont play much.

Played a bunch last night actually and had a crazy session. I entered a 3/0 tournament on lichess and went from 1570 to mid 1600s in the tourney. Then played a little more and hit 1705 a few games after somehow. I lost a few and am not 1700 but it was a wild run.
