I miss Drew - he used to put things like the Rating Chart and a list of Smileys with their codes into the forums where we could all collect them. Like Thread 80000.

I manage to checkmate YEAH BOY in 37 moves, which was 2 moves under my limit of 39. I certainly played more aggressively than normal (I was rather hoping to be the underdog).

It was a fun game.

Shows the limitation of the bishop to one color really hurting.

nice job, first game i think that there was a trade of queens.

i think you'll get your wish of being the lower rated player in the next round....

I was probably a bit too confident when I did that.

Currently watching 4 games in progress, but don't know what the move limit is on each. So there's no cliffhanger effect .... 😕

I'm confused. Is this round 2 of the previous one or have you started something new?

OK, just wanted to make sure I wasn't supposed to be doing something. I saw Yuga's name as still in game and thought that maybe I'd hallucinated my handicapped win against him. 😉

OK by me, I wasn't trying to trigger a discussion, just to let folks know Round 1's quite a way off being finished yet. 🙂

Another point for the lower rated ones!

nicely done, i was watching that game.

i won't be going any higher than 25 moves but it's clear he had more of a chance in this game that he had in his first game.

well defended though.
