how about a game?

[Lucky]

Actually that is NOT the board position!

You forgot the moves 8 AND 9!

Recheck the move list!

AND check your 10th move, your pawn is already on e4!!!


Here is the correct one (after the 9th move, before your 10th):

 

[insanewarrior]

silly me ... i have to get the hang of it sooner or later. I played e5 so the board position is correct. Forgive my mistake.

Thank you for pointing it out...

therefore, the game is

1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nc6
3. Bb5 Nd4
4. Nxd4 exd4
5. d3 c6
6. Bc4 Nf6
7. Bg5 h6
8. Bh4 g5
9. Bg3 d5
10. e5

 

[Lucky]

Better make sure that my g and h pawn and your bishop there are on the correct tiles, too!


1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nc6
3. Bb5 Nd4
4. Nxd4 exd4
5. d3 c6
6. Bc4 Nf6
7. Bg5 h6
8. Bh4 g5
9. Bg3 d5
10. e5 dxc4

this is a strange position. With email chess you have a lot more time to think about a move...

there i go again and confuse the board position. i actually thought i had my bishop banging f6 (???). Well, i guess i screwed yet another game.

 

[Lucky]

Well, as I tried to remind you of several times, your board picture is false. Look at mine and at move number 9. You Bishop is on g3!!!

Things are surely going the right way for me. If I win, what would my rating be?

 

[insanewarrior]

I will shoot myself if this position is wrongly drawn...

You can live on, it is correct!
