Oops. Nothing to see here. Move along. Maybe learn some rules of chess or something.

Do you think beginners can really be bothered with trifling details like that?

Judging by the abusive pm he sent me for my reply here, I think his first priority should really be engrish.

Yes they can be forwarded.

Goto my messages, what ever message you want to forward, goto the bottom of the screen as press reply then change who you want it sending to.

Seeing as the game is over... at a quick glance the Knight on H3 would have mated if moved to F4 - much better move.

Or, even better, post the position here:
In move 28, white moved c2-c4+ which is not mate:

The proposed move Nh3-f4++ is still posible after the forced move d4xd3 (e.p.). mate. game over.
