Originally posted by Sicilian SmaugOh you had to bring up that game again, didn't you? 😛.
Very hard to remember which were my best games from looking at the archives, These ones were quite good though.Game 1479929Game 1432140Game 1435615Game 1503995
Game 1494726 Is my best I think.
Game 1239256
Although the resignation by my opponent (a clearly superior player by quite some margin, as his rating demonstrates) is undoubtedly premature (I'm not confident I would have promoted any of those pawns, and I'm not going to pretend I wouldn't have accepted a draw a few moves down the line), I think that's probably the most hard-fought win I have on file: my King had to suffer humiliating ejection from its own cluster, incessant checks, constant movement, and my major pieces were on several occasions one fork away from disaster.

Originally posted by fierytormentReally? What was your record and rating on September 1st? Certainly high enough so that finding a knight move that forks a King and Queen that I'll bet most 1200's on this site would find in a minute if they looked, shouldn't be your "shining moment".
by the way, I was Never even close to being undefeated.

Aren't I awesome? Finding things like this will get me to the top in no time flat.
Originally posted by fierytormentOf course, you are right; you did some mass resignations in July and lost some games in early August. I guess I got confused by how you were a low rated player on August 14 when you lost to Daniv but then didn't lose any of your next 89 games (82-0-7). How many points did you pick up in those two weeks? 400? 500? I'd said you were the most improved player in August; kinda surprising you would take a powder in September. Why was that anyway?
