RHP has some tools for annotating your own games. You basically click your way through the game and add comments when appropriate. Take a look at one of your finished games and click on the link for "annotations for this game" (or something similar)
Hi Hempster
"...but hey i can learn."
The old way to note up a game was is to first look at who won.
Then praise the winners moves and slag off the losers moves.
So for this reason I have selected a game of yours for you to note up....a draw.
Game 8939777
This game produced this incredible position. White to play.
Black has managed in 12 moves to place 4 pieces on unprotected squares.
(ithat is actually quite hard to do.....It's a gift.) and...
...after 13.Qd5 The Queen is attacking every one of them.
(It's a good job she can only have move at time.)
So Hempster. Note up this game.
You are only allowed 5 annotations (comments or pieces of short, and I mean
short, analysis.) so choose your critical moments well.
An introduction to the game, a quick summary, warning the reader what they
are about to see does most of the notes for you. (Fred Reinfeld was a master
at this. You rarely see a game he noted up without an intro.)
Well its not very often that I'm out of the spectrum for being "rated to high" - thats a bit odd. However I thought I'd mention that while me playing and "study buddying" wouldn't be overly valuabel, I'll stand to give any help and limited annotations on games if requested. I imagine old Mr. Pawn would do the same! Sometimes a third eye on a game can be a big help.
If you have any questions, just throw 'em at my message box. Best to you learners!
