It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
Re: Gameroom Chess Tourney?
Well played. Especially the second game I was very impressed by your skill!

Re: Gameroom Chess Tourney?
Seamus, I believe you didn't gave me enough points in the starting post.
The purpose of a fish trap is to catch fish, and when the fish are caught, the trap is forgotten. The purpose of a rabbit snare is to catch rabbits. When the rabbits are caught, the snare is forgotten. The purpose of words is to convey ideas. When the ideas are grasped, the words are forgotten. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words? He is the one I would like to talk to.

When is the absoluted deadline Martok is still not replying?

Re: Gameroom Chess Tourney?
Please make a quick report if you have ZERO response from your designated partner.
Provisionally, we will accept Pannonnian replacing Ethelred barring a QUICK reminder from Ethelred that they're playing.
Andres has also offered to replace.
Wasp: We're looking for a full report of results from both players to make sure things are on the up and up.
I'll try to update the 1st post with results tomorrow. Having trouble connecting with pever as my prime work hours are his prime computer hours. I'm suffering from antipodean angst!

Re: Gameroom Chess Tourney?
Gah!
Sorry guys been busy with real life!
Anyway I'm back now and have a reliable interweb link so I'll offer to replace anyone who's a no show or will wait out for the next tourney.
Cheers.

Re: Gameroom Chess Tourney?
I just played my two games with Martok.
The first game was plagued with technical difficulties, in the end I was given the win. The second game was a classic, nearly two hours long and tight all the way, in the end I capitalised on a bit of a defensive blunder.
So, final score 2-0.

I'd be interested in a friendly game.
I'm terribly rusty though. And if you're a really good player, tell me before the game so I can prepare for my inevitable death.
