Tavern on the Meta

Job titles are getting complicated at SE. Meta says there are 11 community managers. The cogro thing has 14 users: those 11 plus Jaydles, Laura and samthebrand. Understandably, Comm.Team need not be equal to {comm. managers}...

Chess boxing

Chess boxing or chessboxing is a hybrid fighting sport that combines the two traditional sports, chess and boxing. The competitors fight in alternating rounds of chess and boxing. What was initially only thought to be an art performance quickly turned into a fully developed competitive sport. Chessboxing is particularly popular in Germany, Great Britain, India and Russia. == History == Rubingh’s idea to create a new sport fusing the two disciplines - chess and boxing - originates from the 1992 comic “Froid Équateur“ written by French comic book artist Enki Bilal that portrays a chessboxing world...

Undo

@Frank you still have more rep on LH than I do on SR

Frank

@Undo I has the 3rd highest profile views on LH, perhaps because trees look sooo attractive.
