Very little, there was a friendly hello at the beginning, and then at the end I offered a draw and explained why I was giving it -I was going to force one anyway; maybe she got angry because she lost rating points or she thought she was winning.

I believe the term is 'bunny boiler'.

The best put-down I ever received here was the simple "Oh dear, I really did not think you would fall for that."

No cursing, no obscenity...just molten mockery, succinctly delivered, the way it should be.

If someone sent me a message like that, I would piss my pants laughing about it, and then post it in the forums 😛

That doesn't don't like good sportsmanship...does it?

Now wait....I know Mary Ann, and she would NEVER say that. I believe she was once a nun.

The key word there is 'once', is she still a nun?

Why didn't she play Qd7? If there's another check, the Kc8 with the Kb7 escape. Then black has nice attacking position left over. Right?

Maybe this is an example of why she isn't.

Its not good sportsmanship at all. Once, a couple years back,I was playing an opponent who out of the blue started coming up with novelties like move, sh!thead, and hurry up, c😲cksucker. I took a little of this, but after it got old I complained to management. Their solution was to declare the game a draw, I actually lost rating points in the process and I had done nothing to fire this character up!

That is an absolutely piss-poor example of tournament direction. They should have insisted that your opponent adhere to the OFFICIAL rules of the USCF, which state that the only time a player should speak to his opponenet is to resign or offer a draw, and if he couldn't do that then he should forfeit the game. I hope you at lest gave a piece of your mind to that director!

I'm not sure what move you actually meant, but Black hasn't been able to play Qd7 since move 6.
