The Chump vs The Champ

I don't think that's in any book, is it?

Regarding your protest, Smash... As they say in American TV series, OVERRULED!

BTW, have to admit I didn't catch the "reply with quote"-joke until kcbob pointed it out. I also "failed" to see the quote...

I don't know if Na4 should get a !,!?,?!,? or a ??.Didn't take long for the game to get nice and complicated.

'!#*&%@$?' might be more appropriate.

Hi,

Have you guys ever played chess over at It's Your Turn? If not, you should check it out, it's pretty cool.

When both players are online you can play a fairly quick game, but since the games are stored at the site you can also play as infrequently as you choose as well. And since ALL games are stored in standard notation you can import ANY game into Chessmaster or other chess program for analysis.

Shortly after Carolus and I started our [cough]game[/cough], the guy I sit by at work started a game from this site with me. It was a pretty cool site.

Hey! That's it! I was distracted. Ya think?
