maybe thats what its all about!
Hey, Ben is a changed player because of the life changing advice on this thread. Read his profile, he is no longer a win-at-all-costs player, now he's singing about rainbows & crap. It is so heartwarming when a site like this can change a life 🙄

Unbelievable,

I had played Gaskit into a position where he was to be mated in 2 moves and then over the course of the weekend he took advantage of a time out opportunity and claimed a victory. I had been expecting to see his resignation. There was zero opportunity for him to avoid a loss, other than through the very unsportsmanli ...[text shortened]... her when you have been fairly beaten.

Look, I agree that it was unsportman like.
But, at the same time, it was your fault he got the opportunity.

I have to wonder what sort of day you must have had that caused you to start name calling.

Anyhow as per my original and only intent with this thread.
I got what I wanted.

Thanks to all of you for your responses, vitriolic or otherwise. Exposure is exposure after all.
Ben, how could i state this in a way that you will comprehend? It looks rather shaky, but i will give it a try.

*clears throat*

Something tells me you have no "street" smarts... please prove me wrong..if you dare.

Now then...You threaten, you cajole, you brag...and then you lose! And easily within perfectly understandable constraints of fair play and online play. And then you bellyache, all over a loss on a very active realtime chess-playing gamesite. At least i didn't call you a coward and a hypocrite. For that you should be thankful.

Once I change my lifestyle(probably never going to happen) and pay for a subscription(also probably never going to happen) or get someone else to do it(very likely) I will join his clan!
