EvilScotsman Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 I'm back for next season, hoping to consolidate my mid-table position and perhaps push for a playoff, depending on how many newcomers stumble across this thread and steamroller Divison B a la @free beer and @ancientnoise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 I've taken six Queens on loan from Division A reserve teams and they're all going into the starting XVI. Am taking confidence in the fact that I've never lost a game by more than 1-0. Next season's the start of the golden era. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 (edited) Cup, Round Two. IncomingExile wins by resignation against Sweeper Dee/XCTR94. But after missing two checkmates and blundering a queen along the way, I didn't really deserve to win. A fairly solid opening by both players and then it all went a bit mad, with Sweeper Dee regaining the upper hand until a discovered check turned the tables and allowed me to capture his queen and eventually promote a pawn. Look forward to our next game. Edited March 23, 2023 by IncomingExile 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well played, looking forward to our league games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the game! A couple of errors is, apparently, a couple too many - despite playing above my rating according to the analysis, I never had a chance. Well played and good luck with the rest of the cup, and in Division A next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albino Rover Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 A win for me in the Cup. A well-contested cup tie for 20 moves or so, until I nicked a bishop and got into a winning position. Thanks@Stellaboz for the game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a potential move to go for checkmate 5 or so moves down the line but needed you to fall for the trap. Needless to say, didn't work! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
