Well done.
You must have a fetish for the fiancetto, 🙂

Ng4 & Bg1 must be the moves inspired by the tatctics books.
Keep up the good work.

Go Diet Coke, go Diet Coke 🙂

wow, those games (especially the first one) were nice. it's always nice to break barriers with fashion.

and I guess that's why people like the sicilian despite how crazy it is: you get to play nice combinations every now and then.

congrats.
