Originally posted by shortcircuitI looked at some of his games and I saw something I never saw here before: He is playing a bunch of 1200 level players with queen down. How is he managing to set those games up? I didn't know you could do piece down games here. Also, if you do play those kind of games, are they automatically non rated or can you do rated games minus queen? I noticed he got his butt handed to him a number of times by these 1200 dudes.
I know his game. I played him and beat him a game and gave him a draw in the other.
Now my previous post may make more sense to you.
He is a solid player, and he loves to surprise people who think he can't play.

anyway, it's tough playing without the queen... we rely on her so much in the game. I did mess up a couple of possible wins, Game 8509698 was winnable until i left a pawn hanging on move 26, Game 8396767 move 23 - 😞
and a couple of other mindless mistakes that ended the game before it started.
