One reason you may see some old names about again is an email is currently going out to all abandoned accounts effectively saying the account is about to be removed due to inactivity.

C'mon Ghost, when ya gonna move already ? Yer time bank ran out last week. I know, it's an 'immortal' game... Being an immortal myself, it gets tedious.

@moonbus,

@Ghost may be losing in your game! 😉 Better to say I was timed out maybe?

I'm on vacation. (And like being a pawn ahead). 🙂

@Ghost,
We both know a P up doesn't mean a thing. Why did you let your time expire? Help me to understand! 😉

I'm on vacation sir. My games are protected.

I don't play chess while wearing a snorkel.

Ok that wasn't mentioned in @moonbus's post. That is a whole different thing, you can't be timed out while on vacation anyways as we know.

I'm also hoping the time delay will have Moonbus forget his game strategy.

@Ghost,

I am doubtful of that, but it is a nice wish. 😉 He seems like the type of guy who may keep notes on his plan if needed. I am making an assumption of course.

That is my fear...


It's our 3rd attempt to end the tournament, as we keep winning one a piece. - Having lost one of our current pairings I really have to win this one, to maintain my immortal status.

@Ghost,

You both very tough strategic players in my opinion.

That would be EPI-metheus--the god who knows the past.

I'm PRO-metheus--I know the future. And I know that, though Zeus chained me to this rock with adamantine bonds, he shall be undone by his own folly and destroyed by his own progeny. Only I know which mortal dalliance shall bear him his nemesis and free me from these chains.

You're Bacchus, intoxicated with the present.

Enjoy your holiday in the sun. I'll be here, for I am timeless and patient, awaiting the next move.

I gifted you that pawn. I'm quite content with doubled rooks on the half-open file.

😀 😆





Pssst, we're not supposed to discuss a running game though.

We've only tiptoed around the parameters of the game. I haven't even mentioned the goat.

@moonbus,

That is ok most of us wouldn't even know what you were talking about. 😉

You mean the great god Pan, of course. The Piper At The Gates of Dawn...
