The Chump vs The Champ

[Smash]

The Champ-Carolus Rex-a proven champion.A brilliant tactician of immense talent.A crafty seasoned veteran of world class chess..well..its a stretch but..


The Chump-Smash-inexperienced,uneducated also ran.Just finished carving the last pawn from bars of soap so he'd have a chess set to play with.He still calls rooks castles and likes the horsey piece best.

GAME ON.

1.c4

[Smash]

Waits an appropriate amount of time..

WHITE-Smash
BLACK-Carolus


Prize Fund-TBA

[Carolus Rex]

Argh!!!

I hate 1. c4...

You have a great psychological advantage already!

kcbob, how's Smash's first post for a Sandbagger? He takes the concept to a higher dimension, doesn't he?

For the sake of someone whose immense age prevents him from mastering the inticacies of algebraic notation ...
Am I correct in thinking that we are so far at:

1) P-QB4 Kt-KB4

or have I gone wrong already?

I think you've got it. But then again, I thought I had it in the last game. And then again again, which piece is the Kite? Oh, wait, you mean Night. Or was that Nite?

BTW, Carolus, I posted in our game's thread a final post to the effect of 'Now you take black!' See where it gets you? c2-c4???? AARRGGHH!!

Hey, my local kibitzer just pointed out that on the board I was using at work to follow our game, I was playing white/red, not white/black. That must have been the problem, right?

And, yes, the Sandbagger definition will need to be modified. That was laid on pretty thick. "Horsey"??

BTW, SG. Congrats! 1001 posts! And has anyone noticed the international flavor of this endeavor? Sweden, UK, Canada, and the US?

Better dead than "Red"... or green... or blue... or yellow... or orange... or purple... or white.

You wish to resign?

[Smash]

Yes thats fine.Just play when we can type thing.

I'm very rusty so I need all the time I can get to remember chess.

[Carolus Rex]

Yes.

On second thoughts, no.

But I have to pause the game until next week, is that ok with you?

I'm leaving town Wednesday, have to prepare some stuff for the trip and I won't be back until Monday.

Is this acceptable?

Ok, Ok I guess that once more we are "two nations separated by a common tongue" - What the devil is a Sandbagger?

A sandbagger is one who deceives you about his true nature or intent so that he can take advantage of you.
