Still, clearly the Grob is unsound at virtually any level of play.
The c3 Sicilian is also a fairly weak choice.
Heres me beating a 2000 rated player with it in Game 4244294;
and heres me hanging in for a draw against a 2350 player in Game 4244304 - Opps! sorry but I'm black in this one.
Originally posted by wittywonkaWell said. You can't take anything too personally on an internet forum. After all, we're just names on a computer screen.
Korch genuinely was (is?) a great addition to the forums in terms of offering useful comments and suggestions, but this is overdoing it. Seriously, this is online pouting.
Everyone makes enemies in the forums, you simply have to ignore them and move on.
Originally posted by eertognamPerhaps your use of the statement:
I never said or implied that I've ever posted anything worthwhile. Perhaps my use of "he" (referring to Korch) confused you.
"Most of the rest of you suck, nothing but show boating and boasting."
gave the impression that you had made some worthwhile contributions. Something like:
"My posts suck, nothing but show boating and boasting."
would have been clearer.
Originally posted by MahoutI didn't intend that implication. You're suggested post wouldn't make sense, because I don't show boat or boast, most of the regular posters do.
Perhaps your use if the statement:
"Most of the rest of you suck, nothing but show boating and boasting."
gave the impression that you had made some worthwhile contributions. Something like:
"My posts suck, nothing but show boating and boasting."
would have been clearer.
