Zero, excellent game. I think I will go ahead and resign. Losing my rook will leave me without a chance to win, and my best hope would be for a stalemate, which would be hard to do when we have so much time to examine each move. I almost resigned after moving my bishop to d2 in move 38 - I realized I had made a big mistake within minutes after doing it. You could have moved your rook to h3 and ended the game there. I'm curious, did you see my planned attack on your king? I was really hoping your queen would take my pawn on e4. I was going to move my rook to f1, hoping you'd move your queen to d3 to allow your pawn to advance. Then my bishop would take your pawn on h6. You would have had to sacrifice your queen or be in checkmate. C'est la vie. Congratulations! It was a well-played game. IP: Logged |

Good game, and no I didn't see it. I know it's a good rule of thumb to keep your king not in the same column as the enemy's rook. And I thought I could simplify the game by trading rooks, so that was my plan. I also considered playing Kh8 just to get my king out of firing range. Though I thought the rook+bishop wasn't such a bad matachup against the queen. You could defend more places than me, for instance, however I did snipe a great many of your pawns. So your outlook was grim, but I've been known to blunder better positions than this in the past. IP: Logged |

It began Oct 8th and ended Jan 27th, making it the longest game I've ever played at 81 days. And the slowest too, with an average of about 1 move per 2 days. [This message has been edited by Zero (edited January 27, 2009).] IP: Logged |

If we play again, let's do it on a site where we play out the entire game in one setting. But give me a few months to recover. IP: Logged |

That sounds fun. I'm game with that. And no recovery necessary... my 1-turn-per-2-days rating is probably over 2000 while my play-in-one-sitting rating is probably somewhere around 1100 ... lol IP: Logged |

I'm just going to take a break from chess for a little while. I've had a lot going on with my job and with writing, and I have a family to focus on as well. Give me about a month or so and maybe we can find a chess site to play on. IP: Logged |

Sure thing. Maybe we can even let some fellow hatrackers observe the game. IP: Logged |

I definitely wanna be there to pester. No kibitzing, just off-topic nonsense, I swear. Hehe. IP: Logged |

Thanks, Satate. ANd PJ, you'd better be there. I'm counting on the entertainment.

I'm up for another game any time, with anyone. IP: Logged |

I might be up for a rematch, but I will probably be moving a little slower this time - my workload is sporadic. Should we start a new thread? BTW, I haven't played since our last game. IP: Logged |

I have played every now and then (mostly stupid blitz games) so I'm up for a correspondence one. IP: Logged |
