You are watching a stranger play chess against a computer. There has to be a more fulfilling method of trolling people.

Or both of them are watching two computers playing against each other.

I suspect the enjoyable part was step 6.

Also, I would like to make a lichess.org bot that plays chess and intelligently talks to opponents.

[slig]

Sounds a lot more fun than making a poker bot.

Don't forget to analyse moves and comment on them. It makes it more realistic.

It's more of a challenge, (and more fun) doing this with a real-life chess game. A friend and I challenged a buddy who was good at chess to a game (2 vs 1), a scenario which he usually defeated us in. I had to leave the room to enter his moves onto my desktop machine. The fun was making up excuses for leaving the room, and transmitting the moves to my partner without making it look suspicious (I pretended to be wired up on caffeine and extremely jumpy). "We" managed to defeat him quickly, but, after seeing how dissapointed he was, spilled the beans.
