    One of the most amazing parts ;

    "This new system of playing chess is absolutely the simplest imaginable! Even a complete beginner can learn to play the basic opening in a few minutes! In a few hours he will be able to play well beyond the opening, and know a large number of strong variant lines. With this system any beginner develops unbelievably fast into a solid player, able to confront even expert opponents and offer them a tough game!"


    Another ;

    "If you play chess seriously, then take this announcement seriously because all of the current opening practice of chess is being challenged! This system is better than anything you have ever seen! Try it and you will see, and soon be convinced, it is absolutely the best ever found!"

    If they say so, it must be so, doesn't it? They don't lie, do they?

    You have to learn to trust people!

    I remember coming up with that formation except I used it as black... and I could make it into the endgame every time... I guess using it as white would make more sense...

    When I was first experimenting with opening structures that formation seemed somewhat intriguing but I never investigated it further.

    Its playable... Don't know if it could be at master level. Its passive... but maybe modern theory has shown that too aggressive of play weakens your structure?

    Having your knights at e2 and d2 is very flexible, they can go almost anywhere from there.

    The PDF is saying you play it as black or white.
