I'll assume you meant c3 as I play h4.

 

[Erik Mesoy]

h3, sorry for disappearing for a while.
(Atari)
On a technicality, you can't capture my piece because you didn't say atari last turn.
Yes, I did mean c3.

 

[punkbass2000]

I'll take your word for it, but as I learned it, saying atari is not required, it's just polite.

I'll play i4. Do I need to say it if it's still atari? Atari, anyway.

 

[Erik Mesoy]

punkbass2000, "Polite but not required" is exactly what a technicality - or formality - is. I should have included in that last post. Go ahead with whatever it was, if I can't keep track of a 9x9 board on a play-by-post game, I deserve to lose.

 

[punkbass2000]

So I'm changing my move? If so, i5 instead.

 

[punkbass2000]

So, uh, what happened to this game?

 

[punkbass2000]

Dead, then?
