I don't get it, can't the castle take the queen here to avoid the resignation?

chess game analysis is abt as dorky as it gets (edit: well, there is go game analysis...)

I've just played two games of Scrabble and pwn3d in both, time to come back to the final death throes of my not quite so stellar chess career...

― kephm, Wednesday, 16 March 2005 17:45 (nineteen years ago) link

signed on as kephm. my game is so poor right now

― kephm, Wednesday, 16 March 2005 17:46 (nineteen years ago) link

The delay between turns really lets you savour just how bad a mistake you've made with your last move. Oh yes.

― Greig (treefell), Thursday, 17 March 2005 11:42 (nineteen years ago) link

yes, a slow agonising death at the hands of tiefschwarz is certainly being 'savoured'

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Thursday, 17 March 2005 11:49 (nineteen years ago) link

Casuitry's massive positional advantage is now countered by my crushing one-pawn lead! I'm really enjoying all these games.

― Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Thursday, 17 March 2005 13:08 (nineteen years ago) link

it's good fun.

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 17 March 2005 13:09 (nineteen years ago) link

― Lucretia My Reflection (Lucretia My Reflection), Thursday, 17 March 2005 15:56 (nineteen years ago) link

yes but you could've prolonged that last game a bit longer, for da sport

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Thursday, 17 March 2005 16:07 (nineteen years ago) link

(like i am now doing against Ken)

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Thursday, 17 March 2005 16:07 (nineteen years ago) link

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 17 March 2005 21:59 (nineteen years ago) link

Whenever I make a move that I think is at all clever (usually because I decided not to make some dumb move) then it takes FOREVER before you lot respond to it.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 17 March 2005 22:27 (nineteen years ago) link

I am enjoying playing against you, ambrose.

haha cozen nice one mate!

huh?

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 17 March 2005 23:10 (nineteen years ago) link

i once got two queens ahead of my opponent - ie i had three and he had one, other pieces more or less equal

i then proceeded to lose all three queens AND the game

― mark s (mark s), Thursday, 17 March 2005 23:25 (nineteen years ago) link

argh i get the feeling i am being drawn to the edge of the abyss, a cavalry charge bouyed by earlu success and seemingly unhindered forays into enemy territory, only for annihilation to ensue

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 17 March 2005 23:42 (nineteen years ago) link

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:08 (nineteen years ago) link

I can't believe Cathy just trash-talked me! I didn't even realize it was an option! ;-)

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:13 (nineteen years ago) link

(Within the game, that is.)

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:13 (nineteen years ago) link

you haven't been sledging? it's half the fun.

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:14 (nineteen years ago) link

I have to use intimidation tactics, to compensate for never thinking more than half a move ahead.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:19 (nineteen years ago) link

cathy's good at this game

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:35 (nineteen years ago) link
