BaSeDG0DSA1NT Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 @free beer StewartMathers defeats Saint by resignation. Em....I naively thought I was winning and had you on the ropes as it felt like you were given me pieces, now I know why and when an email popped through saying Game Over I thought you had resigned, how wrong was I Nope it turns out I was purely focusing on my plan and embarrassingly never noticed that you were clearly going for mate, quite funny looking back at it now, that I was so focused on what I was doing I couldnt see the big danger and warning signs infront of me Well played bud. That's me finished all my games I'm sure if anyone fancies a friendly just pop me an invite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pleslie99 Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 AH13STU beats Pleslie99 by resignation very close game, analysis shows I played better than I thought with only 2 mistakes being my downfall against my opponents 0. Thought it was heading for a draw and repeatedly offered one in the hope of getting one without playing it out. My opponent knew better and put me to the sword. Really well played 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ancientnoise Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 (edited) THE P&B CHESS CUP OK people, apologies for the delay. Based on the responses so far, we have: Up for the Cup: @Stellaboz, @Leicesterlichtie, @Curmudgeon, @Albino Rover, @IncomingExile, @Ken Deans, @Aim Here, @EvilScotsman, @pleslie99, @craigkillie, @SweeperDee, @free beer, @invergowrie arab, @ancientnoise That's 14. Not Up for The Cup: @N5 Spur Not Replied: @arab_joe, @mathematics, @true_rover, @Frank Grimes and @BaSeDG0DSA1NT Let's give it till midnight on Friday 10th March, then I'll make the draw. This should give enough time for the non-repliers to decide whether they want in. Another two would be handy! Should also give me time to work out how I'm going warm the balls up without making it too obvious of course CBC Edited March 6, 2023 by ancientnoise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Apologies to my two opponents in post-season friendlies, Albino Rovers and ancientnoise. Hardware issues were immediately followed by network connectivity issues so I was timed out - to my sheer annoyance as both games had been very intriguing. Hope these problems are all passed now and look forward to my first round cup exit (surely another bye is hoping for too much). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ancientnoise Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 (edited) P&B Chess Cup 2023 So we have 18 names for the Cup. They are: @Stellaboz, @Leicesterlichtie, @Curmudgeon, @Albino Rover, @IncomingExile, @Ken Deans, @Aim Here, @EvilScotsman, @pleslie99, @craigkillie, @SweeperDee, @free beer, @invergowrie arab, @ancientnoise, @mathematics, @BaSeDG0DSA1NT, @true_rover, and @Frank Grimes This is a straight knockout tournament. Totally unseeded for every round. As you can see from this link, the first four names out will go into the "Preliminary Round", with the two winners of that then going back into the mix for the Round of 16 draw. https://tinyurl.com/sx5bpsnf Standard rules, first name drawn for each match plays as white, 1-day-per-move and a draw means a replay. I'll do the draw later today. Or rather my glamorous assistant will, when she gets back from a shopping trip. Gawd alone knows when that will be, but all will be revealed later. The hat and the 18 bits of paper with names on have been prepared. Nothing to stop me drawing the Round of 16 now of course, but let's keep that a mystery for now. Same deal as before - just post the result of your match in here and I'll update the spreadsheet. Best of luck!
