Didn't really like that unusual response to the Vienna. Wasn't sure what to do but was able to pick up the Bishop and from then on was able to stay on the front foot. I think the main difference here is that you know what a Vienna is, while I’m sure it’s something to do with a dessert. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albino Rover Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I know what the pieces do. Before joining this league I thought "opening" was how you got into a packet of crisps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curmudgeon Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Division A Ziggy_The_Spider and Board_stupid draw by agreement. Very happy with a draw in what should statistically be the toughest fixture of the campaign. I felt that I was always just a little behind and had to be very careful as any mistake would've had me in trouble. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I thought I was slightly better but without having a clear way to win. I think I was was needing you to make a mistake but it just didn’t happen. That’s 8 times we’ve played and I’ve only managed 3 wins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

free beer Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Madwullie Result, I (stewartmathers) finally lost to Board_Stupid on his 80th move - so more like going out 14-13 on penalties a.e.t. Best of luck to my opponent in his next round. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curmudgeon Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 In the Madwullie cup Board_stupid beats stewartmathers by checkmate after a tough 80 moves. It could have gone either way and a draw was looking likely at one point, but I managed to pull out a decent end game. Even near the end I had to be careful to avoid a stalemate. Well played, @free beer. I hope you join the league for next season, you'd be a great addition. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
