Why are so many players from the Vatican City on this site.

I've only played 2 players from Vatican if they were real. One on a Sunday, and the other on Saturday. I beat them both.

the moral of the story is:
Flags don't mean anything. you can pick and choose what country it is.

Stop making posts about things related to flags, its pointless.

There are more sicilians adoring the see on chess.com than vaticans adoring the pope d4

They can change flags, and people like to be mischievous.

50% are liars, 30% are tourists who decided to sign up there, 20% are genuine people who live there

The Pope makes a lot of new user names when he gets frustrated over his losses.

So much for infallibility!

I'd say either Catholics or trolls. It's really easy to change your location. I'm an American and I just went to edit my flag just because. No checking location.

Could be both Catholic AND trolls. But that's speculation.

I thought you were just a big fan of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. They never had it so good!

I am a fan of Poland-Lithuania (plus family).

We're 43 responses into this and I see people talking about things that really have nothing to do with what I asked : the Berlin Wall, purgatory, Meryl Streep, zombies, cavemen, the Roman Empire, tattoos etc.

This quoted bit says it's post #43, but it now is post #25.
