eindhovendee Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 eindhovendee beats PurpleKangaroo89 by checkmate. Feel as if I was gifted the win, early season rustiness from my opponent giving me the win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilScotsman Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I've just realised you can get into a live analysis (by going to the openings and copying the moves) during a game, which has the white/black bar and will tell you the +/- score for each planned move. This seems a bit dubious to me; does anyone use it during games? I haven't done it in our game by the way @die hard doonhamer - after blundering my queen 7 moves in against a 1342 rated player I've managed to drag things into an end game. The analysis doesn't look too good, mind you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, attempting to do it with offsite chess engines will get you banned eventually, since chess.com has a bunch of clever machine learning algorithms designed to spot that sort of thing.

pleslie99 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Pleslie999 beats GordonS496 by resignation. I was in trouble after about 4 moves, recovered, offered a queen trade which Gordon declined and that was turning point as my queen was just in amongst it and couldn't really be attacked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good result. @ShaggysBeard I hope you're not starting this season like last. You're my pick for the Division C title. Spoiler My endorsement is the kiss of death.

Scorge Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) The _underscore derby between el_scorgio vs Board_Stupid ends in stalemate. Was ahead and should have found a way to win, but I'm still a bit rusty, couldn't, and chickened out....

I was getting pulverised and was a bawhair from resigning several moves earlier, but decided to play it out as I had a slight threat down the king side. My king needed oxygen after getting chased round the board, but somehow stole a draw by repetition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Hibsed that. I haven't played a game of any type since the last game of last season and it showed. I thought I could swagger out of the trade but I didn't remotely look through the possibilities from your end. Well done, the Queen trade was a subtle move and you made all the right choices to avoid an early defeat when you were in danger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 RBWatson defeats DieHardDoonhamer by checkmate. I was ahead for most of the game then fucked it and got myself stuck in a corner. @EvilScotsman saw his chance and executed perfectly. Well played. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offt I had triple pawns in a game a few months back, awful state of affairs to get into. Like playing a bunch of centre halves in midfield. Who is Lviv on here? I've sent a game request a few days ago but no response? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aim Here Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Division A, round 1. I forgot to calculate the consequences of Board_stupid's queen taking my bishop and from then on it was a slow downhill grind without getting much chance to fight back... Board_stupid beats AimHere by resignation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
