Ended up winning. But, I probably shouldn't have after the ridiculous move 35.b-c6?? giving up the one advantage (which I was planning on winning with-the queenside majority along with knight versus bishop)
I've got no clue where you got your PGN text, it makes no sense. Part of your failure was also the [ /pgn ] to start the pgn. Where are all the spaces required to separate the moves? Hit reply and quote to see how it's pasted properly. Have fun.

Wow, that is weird. I just copy and pasted the pgn from the link. Oh well, thanks for posting that though. Any thoughts on the game? Mistakes other than the obvious one where I lose a pawn or where he allows me to go into the king and pawn endgame?
The first thing that I see is 12.Qa4+... pretty much a useless move that loses, count em, two tempi. One for moving the queen to a4 and one for moving it back to d1.

after 15. q-d1 the knight has left the kingside. Is 2 knight moves to a bad square really a gain of tempo?
