That was a big blunder. See my Q?

 

Wanna take it back?

Sorry blu I cant see it...unless I have the position set up wrong on my board.

 

Let it stand anyway, see what happens...

Nxg5 and wins! For, if fxg5 then Qh8++

 

You must lose the pawn and a rook to survive.

 

That would spoil the game. So take it back, play something like Qb8, to which I respond with Nd4 (ready to squeeze you silly on e6) and we can play on.

 

Or, you could resign a really horrible position. Take yer pick.

No Volvo not trying to get any post count anywhere and I often come here as a guest and I read the guides so why would I need to ask for help

 

And Altercuno what makes you think I should or even would be scared of any of those people mentioned ? they don't own or run this forum, I don't hang on any word they say nor do I have too, I also don't need to be 'in the crowd' as some others here do

Thanks for the gg Altercuno. Happy to have a chess thread - seems we have lots of kibitzers, including bloody Noddy and his big ears (or mouth). As for the N, you gotta remember it's got 8 squares to go to. You can't get fixated on where I was headed, cos for 10 moves or so, I was wondering, "what if I could open the long diagonal". Anyways, you're white now. Start up your thread. (And thanks for the comment!)

 

@volvo - if you wanna be a cheerleader (or cheerfeader on your keyboard), please post a pic of you in a short skirt with pom poms :D

 

@Bob - Hijacking is an accepted form of social behaviour on ImgBurn Forum, especially in stupid, political threads like this one.

Duh!

Hey blu, when does the next game start?

Posted

God knows MJ. Maybe when the next overtly nationalist/stupid political thread starts.

 

Personally, I much prefer this thread to chess or stupid politics.

Hey blu,

 

Yeah I completely overlooked you taking the pawn with the knight, but thats the beauty of chess. It was a good way to end it so well done again.

 

The next game starts as soon as the threads up and running - all welcome. Book your seats to support, comment, suggest, kibitz, enjoy or just talk - should be loads of fun.

 

Regards,

And so concludes "The Americans who risked everything". In fact it was a pom, Altercuno, who risked everything by playing a bad move in a very unforgiving game against a true bastard.

Posted
