    I will be following the fate of MtG's poor king-file pawn closely. Will it survive, deep in enemy lines, with no nearby pawn support? Or will it go down heroically like an action movie hero, taking out a Knight in a dramatic explosion as it sacrifices itself for the greater cause?
    All syllogisms have three parts.
    Therefore this is not a syllogism.

          I know, I was tempted to just assume it and say if you moved there, I would do 17 Bg5 h3, but I decided its bad policy to tell the other person where to move.

          1 e4 c5
          2 Nc3 e6
          3 g3 Nc6

          6 d4 d5

          9 Nh3 h5
          10 c3 b5
          11 Nef4 h4
          12 Qg4 g5
          13 Ng5 Bg5
          14 Ne6 Nde5
          15 de Be6
          16 Qg5 Qg5
          17 Bg5 h3

          I think this move will cause a reasonable amount of havoc for you, but I'm not sure whether I'll make out with enough that I can turn the game around.

            The pawn is in a somewhat irritating position, but I wanted to get the bishop back to f1 to protect the d3 square.

            Should be an interesting endgame.

                I've got a ****load of work to do the rest of today and over the weekend, since it's the first of the month and also the start of a new software development project for my company, so I don't know if I'll be able to get a move in before Monday.

                I may get one or two in over the weekend, but I won't have much foolin' around time.
