I've never had the opportunity to play in a tournament however. Some students in my school have, as our chess club has one or two high ranked players. Why not join the chess club? Simple. Robotics. Seems to be the answer to a lot of things I don't do.
I doubt that - I've never had an interesting/challenging game of chess that didn't last for at least 1/2 an hour... you multiply that by 15 or 30 and that's a BIG chunk of anyone's day.
