My worst blunder was trying to pass off a google image as myself. This brought the RHP microscope to me and the results were not good. I created other personas to defend myself, but just dug myself deeper into a hole... Oh wait that wasn't me 😛

I'm curious to know how many of his personalities thumbed me down. Not that I care, I couldn't resist the joke. KP is a valuable contributor to the forum via chess or entertainment in regards to finding out who he really is. I have already received some blowback messeges. If you can't take a joke, stay off the forums people.

26 Mar '12 23:03Originally posted by nimzo5Yeah your Rb8 move was a gift to white. I am sure he enjoyed the mate.
Rab8 was a classic, early Sunday morning hangover move. I have a couple other massive blunders but I catch them the moment after I have hit the submit button. I think it is something about the refresh of the page forces me to "see" the position fresh.

Any time we attempt humor, some people will think it's funny, and some won e bothered to read, and felt moved to react to. Apathy is the only true enemy here.
26 Mar '12 23:52Originally posted by Paul LeggettI think you misunderstand me. I am not upset in any way that the post was thumbed down. I respect everyone's right to opinion. I just wondered how many KP personas thumbed it down. It was merely another attempt at poor humor.

You are right, the post did go off topic. No worries.
Cheers.
27 Mar '12 13:57Originally posted by Paul LeggettI normally agree with Paul, but on this subject I gave the post a thumbs up.

Any time we attempt humor, some people will think it's funny, and some won't. I think it's probably best to simply accept that, and not worry about it.
What's your worst blunder?
