I'm useless at chess. I'm happy just to push pieces around the board and natter to the likes of Kewpie, drewnogal, Teinosuke, vivify, etc.

I've played both in the past. (I believe).

Chess is a beautiful game and I like to separate it from any personal disagreements or angst. If I had lost those games (I didn't) I would have been okay with that, as long as I was outplayed.

Does this anecdote encapsulate your reason not to play Ghost of a Duke?

What is your "compelling reason" for not playing Ghost of a Duke? His conciliatory offer of a game seemed pretty admirable to me.

But, in a partial effort to explain your reason for refusing Ghost of a Duke's offer a game, you chose to relate an anecdote about someone called Cathy Forbes claiming she was sexually harassed by someone called John Henderson, right?

So, your reason is secret but a story about a woman alleging she was sexually harassed helps you explain your arritude to Ghost of a Duke. Am I understanding this correctly?

To enjoy all those red thumbs down. I have a cult following it seems.

So a story about malicious accusations surrounding alleged sexual harassment is what best explains your reason for not playing Ghost of a Duke at chess, am I understanding you correctly?
