    I am 23 as of 26th of Dec 2023. It's crazy to me that I now belong to the "old folks".
    I played chess when I was age 9ish for like 2 years, never really cared about it, just went to my local club once a week and didn't really bother studying the game.
    Then, with the cheating scandal, now 20, I was like: let's give it a try again.

    I really love the money art on your background and was wondering where you bought that? Happy new year

    The "Now get out of here" gets me laughing everytime

    It was Queen's Gambit for me, I'm in my 30s.

    when you translate your book in to Persian

    Blue made $530,000 on the book 🥶💀

    I would say the chess boom in 2021 among the twitch and streaming community, (and ofc Samay Raina in India) was also a pretty significant event in chess popularity. I discovered you channel then only.

    Idea for fun content: Try and replicate the Niemann vibrating chess aid conspiracy theory. A noob plays you and an assistant with Stockfish sends signals to said noob. Hillarity ensues.

    Deep dive videos, maybe like Wirtual's Trackmania documentaries, would be amazing!!!

    Thank you, Levy! 💯 It is a pleasure to be part of your stats! And! I'm at that point where I think I can finally take my spectator interest and my love for your videos and insight, to actually try to play myself! 😅 It is scary 😂 But you are teaching me to love playing, and not to focus on the fact that I will lose – a lot. Happy new year! ❤

    Can I help to translate the book to Dutch? My nephews can't read English yet 😀

    I honestly like what Levy has been doing for the last 7 years or so, I got into Chess in 2018 and quickly realized n wished I knew the game much early as a Kid.
    Levy's opening theory of the caro cann was literally my frst opening. Now I play it against e4 almst alwys. I cherish you @Gothamchess keep doing what you do best!

    Will there be a Chinese version of “How to win at Chess”?

    Edition coming in Greek?? Τέλεια!!!! 😍

    Levy this video felt like we had a conversation together. Keep punching 🙂

    Levi u made me like chess started 3 months ago and now almost rated 800 in rapid

    Chess never fails to include Gotham in its levy

    Great content! I might just be the oldest subscriber (becoming 40 in a few months!) 😅

    I'm so glad the book is available in Czech…. What chess book doesn't cover Check?!

    I learned chess this year from friends introducing me to the game in school and I learned from them to later start learning myself (mainly with your content. Thanks Levy).

    Happy new year Levy.

    You're the godfather of chess for a lot of folks like me

    Hearing this vid was great start for new year it was so wholesome thank u levy I felt so much love for the game hearing all the facts.

    I just started playing for real about a week ago and I feel like I just keep getting worse…

    Hey Levy, I'm sure this will get buried among the 1400 other comments, but I just wanted to say that your ambitions for 2024 in the middle section seemed really exciting to me — the idea of you doing a really deep discussion series with top GMs in particular was something captured my imagination, like the Hot Ones interviews that Sean Evans does. Been watching your content since late 2021, and looking forward to watching more in 2024!

    Hey when is the book coming in hindi

    New chess app update sucks booty, it’s uglier. And winning every game, like 30 in a row, then all of a sudden had to get reversed butt touched by the engine I guess with a losing streak against smurf GM accounts.

    Looking forward to your new content, Levy! Exciting and important 🙌 Your toxic-free attitude of curiosity, joy of the game and respect is such a valuable thing to the community 🔥 happy new year!

    Levy may not be the best chess player, but he is the best chess YouTuber hands down

    I'm 23 and playing for about two years. The boys in the scouting group i'm leading got me into the game while we were on vecation together. Since then i'm just enjoying the game and your content for fun. I'm not seriously trying to get better. For me, its all about fun and getting to meet new people all ages and backgrounds.

    Thx for all the fun hours your vids spend me! Btw i'm enjoying your book rn 🙂
    Happy new year ✨

    Am really happy for you, seeing those analytics, you deserve every view, and awesome work on the book.

    Hi I'd like to give you an idea which basically returned me to chess world after I stopped to play after the early school years. @ChessVibes in 2023 started (but not finished, unfortunately) series of chess puzzles with a fairy tale like story. I've started to watch your channel more than theirs when their viewers were unhappy with the story and other fun content you had. It will be nice, if you also create a few stories like that.

    Levy your book is soooo good I read it and I enjoyed the whole book

    Great work Gotham! Happy New Year 🎉🎉🎉

    Levy helped me get to 1300 elo at 10

    I started playing chess in March, and the first person I saw was you. I really wanted to start making content but my dad was like "Hold up son. This guy knows his shit." I'm about to buy a PC which will be great for making content. I understand now that I can't make my content lesson-based because well -look at you Mr IM.

    Happy new year , I hope your yt grows and all the best (I love watching your videos btw😂)
