@AAAABatteries whooped me. I made a mistake early and he was relentless!!

GG

GG - but all you people tagging AAAA batteries are giving me a complex.  

 

[ragincajun]

Somehow Ragincajun defeats Shuke in a match for the ages.  One that will be talked about in history books.

Midgame. Joffer had a weekend trip but we’ve moved faster today.

 

[scoobus]

Kutta’s been busy with work, but I think he’s about to bust this position open. I think.

 

[Dezbelief]

Nick Vermeil wins, good game.

 

[kutta]

Kutta’s been busy with work, but I think he’s about to bust this position open. I think.

Yes. If you use the crab opening I’ll promise to use the crab defense.

Looking back through this thread I should have used the crab opening.  

 

[Psychopav]

[Dezbelief]

Shuke wins, good game!

 

[shuke]

Shuke wins, good game!

Do you believe in miracles? YES!

 

[scoobus]

Scoobus defeats AAABatteries, gg. My knights were annoying.

 

[Zow]

@cashman88 beats me. I got cute in my opening and he made me pay. 

 

[Juxtatarot]

Juxtatarot defeats Moops 

 

[Juxtatarot]

@timschochet In the OP you have round 4 titled as round 5. 

 

[the moops]

Juxtatarot defeats Moops 

Yea, gg. Got killed in end game. Thought I had a chance but I don't think you made any mistakes

 

[Zow]

Yea, gg. Got killed in end game. Thought I had a chance but I don't think you made any mistakes

The end game is strong with that one. I thought I had him too 2/3 of the way through the game. I made one mistake (though not an obvious one) and he pounced without any errors.

[AAABatteries]

I'm leaving tomorrow morning for 4 days of camping.  Shouldn't be a big issue as where I'm going should have reception but just wanted to give whoever I play a heads up as I may not make moves consistently throughout the day.

 

[ragincajun]

Fred?  Did I send to the right Fred?  BFred?

[timschochet]

@Boston Fred

knock knock

I don’t understand. Have you not started your game? Also that is a different Boston Fred. 

 

[bostonfred]

It's pretty much over.  I got into an up tempo attack and it was one of those games where things just lined up perfectly for me. 

 

[timschochet]
