I don't have any ice cream you could steal. Just a hurting foot. :'(

I wonder if you got a big vat of ice cream and stuck your foot in it if it would feel better.

Maybe I should try that. No wait, I can't, I don't have any ice cream. 🙁 I think mint ice cream would work best.

Mmh, 5225 moves and 383 wrecks. Now I only need to get my rating to a nicer number. I keep trying to hit 1700 exactly, but I keep missing. 🙁

You won't be able to change your rating without messing up the move count, except if someone moves to checkmate you, accepts a draw, or times you out.

Resigning doesn't count as a move, I think. But I don't seem to have any games at the moment which would cost me exactly 29 points.

You'd need to resign to someone about 398 points lower than you to drop 29

I have one which would let me drop 28, and three which would let me drop 31.

It's not your fault. You had no way of knowing. I'm sorry I dragged you down with me.

It doesn't matter. Someone messed up my wreck count, so my day is ruined anyway. 😞

Well, you should be comforted to know that I didn't ruin your day.
