Out of all of your games, what opponents did you enjoy playing the most? Not limited to just one, and not games you enjoyed, opponents you enjoy playing against.

Mine would be:
First and foremost, my good buddy joe t. I've been playing him ever since we both joined. MercifulWolf & Palimpsest have always given me a great challenge. I really enjoyed playing Mesmiris and johnyq. I'm still playing my first game with jbabaei and I've really enjoyed playing him as well.

Anyone else?

I've played Exy a number of times and everytime he's come up with some new way of taking me out of my comfort zone in the opening.

Tough but enjoyable.

I'd have to say T140, kazyx, BeFaRo, Drax946, and healedbygod have been my favorite opponents so far.

Sicilian Smauq always gives me a great challenge. I play him with the hope of learning not winning. He finds a new way to thrash me everytime.

Played Darvlay recently - interesting game with few mistakes. Also enjoyed playing Sicilian Smaug - our games have been pretty direct and brutal.

Of those who thrashed me, Kpt Quack was probably the nicest!

My favorite thrashings have come from chuphone and Luck.

See Checkmate in under 20 moves thread to see my most recent and pathetic defense against S.Smauq.
