Glyphz beat me in the first game, probably the most fun i've ever had in chess, i think i was winning at one point, but then defence, then defence, then stupid move and loss.

Pever played a good solid opening as white, with me trying to keep up in Game 1, leading to a stand-off between the 4 center pawns, with bishop escorts, for center supremacy.
Also, Game 2 with The General turned into a bloody struggle. I thought I had a fair advantage, after taking the queen, but it actually didn't amount to much as he continued to put pressure on my side of the board, and inflicted more casualties to my men than I would like.
Certainly had my hands full tonight.

Even with the extra day, we should be in our third pairs as yesterday evening.

Re: Gameroom Chess Tourney?
Uff da! Caius and I are locked in a tough match right now. Things have been pretty tense throughout (in a good way).

Re: Gameroom Chess Tourney?
Been having some troubles getting on at the same time as Winter since he can only do after 8pm PST (which is 4am my time) so we've been playing the step by step mode and are about mid game on the first one. I guess I'll start challenging the next person in my group?

Re: Gameroom Chess Tourney?
I advise people to have a look at the current Xiahou-Andres game. Swash dem buckles lad!
Re: Gameroom Chess Tourney?
I won, but this was a very close one
Well played Xiahou

Move 14 by white (Xiahou) was brilliantI really thought I lost the game there.

Re: Gameroom Chess Tourney?
Yeah that was a good game. I especially like what Xiahou did with his Queen to pin the Rook. I didn't see that at first.
Rest in Peace TosaInu, the Org will be your legacy

Currently awaiting Ichi to start our first game.
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?
I just received a challenge from a ST_Ghost. Which one of y'all is that?
