I stumbled across this javascript chess engine and gave it a quick test (on "middling" level). I'd like to share the game with you all but not for any particular chessy merit (for obvious reasons it won't work in the pgn viewer):

1. e4 Nf6 2. e5 Ne4 3. d4 Nc6 4. Bd3 d5 5. c3 Bf5
6. f3 Nxc3 7. bxc3 Nxd4 8. c4 dxc4 9. Bxf5 Nxf5 10. Qxd8+ Rxd8
11. Nc3 Rd3 12. Bb2 Re3+ 13. Nge2 Rxe5 14. O-O-O Re3 15. Rd2 e6
16. Rhd1 Bc5 17. Rd8+ Ke7 18. R1d7+ Kf6 19. Nd1+ Rc3+ 20. Bxc3+ Nd4
21. Bxd4+ Bxd4 22. Rxh8 Be5 23. Ne3 Bxh2 24. Ng4+ Kg6 25. Nxh2 h5
26. Nf4+ Kg5 27. g3 h4 28. Rh5+ Kf6 29. Ng4# hxg3!! 30. Kd1 g5
31. Nd3 Kg6 32. Ne5+ Kxh5 33. Nf6+ Kh6 34. Rxf7 35. c5 36. Rh7# 2-0

Edit: While I played many crummy moves, 8. c4 was meant to be 8. cxd4, the interface is a little bizarre.

it must have been really rubbish if you got two points from it in a single game ;-)

4. f3 doesn't win a piece ?

Edit:

I guess 4.Bd3 d5 5.f3 works just as well. 🙂

4.Bd3 f5 (d5 5.f3 f5 still good for white) 5.f3 e6 6.fxe4 fxe4 7.Be2 works too, I guess. 🙂

I would contest that I get a point from my 29. Ng4# and 36. Rh7#.

You're right, in hindsight (and in good players' foresight) 4. f3 is better, but 4. Bd3 does ok too 🙂

One time, I actually tried to make this defense work for black.
The German Stefan Bucker has done a lot of analysis in this and many other unorthodox openings.

          29.Ng4# hxg3!! LOL - did it really give itself two exclams for ignoring a mate?

          And why didn't you just take the King on move 30?

          Haha, no that was me. I figured that it was only fair. I mean, did you see it coming? 😛

          Edit: As for why I didn't take it, um, I don't know. Curse that clever engine.
