Re: Checkmate...
there's a bloke called Chris Prufrock - but unless you've radically changed your look, this isn't you..

Re: Checkmate...
I've found Jimbo and Dan, but no revnev. Perhaps I'm on the wrong site - I'm at chess.com as MontrealWanderer.

i'm on chess.com and I can't find MontrealWanderer (or prufrockBW) - but I can find mrkint
Re: Checkmate...
clearly it's a feck load easier to do it on here - when spotty wakes up, that is!!
Re: Checkmate...
Got revnev, and sent some invites out. Do we have to be mates to make a group? Cos some of you lot smell.
Re: Checkmate...
I'll set a group up, but it looks like mrkint has a Wanderers group already, though that might have been one he made ages ago with...other folk.

I accepted your invitation. Revnev still hiding but I've not paid for "full access".Jakerbeef wrote:Got revnev, and sent some invites out. Do we have to be mates to make a group? Cos some of you lot smell.

Re: Checkmate...
Sort of, as in not really right now as I'm pretty much drunk, and I'm NOT going to make the mistake of putting up a move in this state... Tomorrow, I'll be back.thebish wrote:you still thinking spotty??Lost Leopard Spot wrote:You meet me outside the chippy of your choice, ya big wuss.Prufrock wrote:This thread, tbf, is interminably dull. I get the 'don't read it' but there are a million posts a day so the fecker is always red.
The idea of an online league is good though. I'm utterly shite having not really played since primary school, but I could do with humbling given how I'm pissing all over the fantasy football and hammered Pool Pro Kinty at the Big Red a while back. I'm PrufrockBW. What do I do now?
But, I've had s brilliant idea meanwhile to stop the innumerable whinge-merchants of doom. How'saboot what if we post each move but instead of having a new post, one just edits one's previous post... Ta da. Feckin brilliant Reckon if I say so myself.

Re: Checkmate...
Not to take away the pen 'n paper fun of it, but matches can be watched on the site. They also save the move-list during and after the game.
But by all means, carry on. Sure I don't even know chess notation

I'm not much good on the algebraic notation - prefer the older one even if it takes more space.Jakerbeef wrote:Not to take away the pen 'n paper fun of it, but matches can be watched on the site. They also save the move-list during and after the game.

Re: Checkmate...
Jakers, that's what I meant before, but I'm not that constructive. Folk should should stick up an after game list, which means it's all there, but not in running commentary form.
I can find Kinty, and Dan, but noone else. Don't know if maybe it's case specific, but I'm PrufrockBW.
Can someone set up a tournament that we can find?

Re: Checkmate...
I'll be putting up me 'n mrkint's game after. Boy does that guy like to attack from minute 1...
Are you sure you're on the right website? I checked for PrufrockBW, came up with zip.
I can't create a group as I'm not a premium (paying) member. The rest of the site seems pretty open though.

Game against some random Swiss last night. (For anyone interested.)
He had me done like a kipper after some silly mistakes early on but managed to win with a little help from the suicide squad.
Frankly wish I had money to get boozed up Friday night, but you take what you're given eh.
