Post other blitz thoughts, games, ettiquette, good, bad, amusing, or a Maytag washing machine ... all these things can come from a blitz game. Or wait, was that from a Black Hole? Well close enough, we'll lump it in. Here's my peeve for the day .... * * * You are playing along, after mutual Hello's were exchanged at the onset or there abouts. Find yourself in a winning position coming out of the opening, but already a minute and half down on time ... suddenly your opponent decides it would be nice to know where you are from, the annual rainfall there, and name of your firstborn. So okay, am I just getting grumpy? Maybe its just a matter of they figure "the games about over" lets talk now. I can understand that. But it makes me wonder . . . especially if I have two minutes left and it gets chatty. Should I have a Notepad or perhaps Paste set up beforehand to send in this situation? Should it say, "Hey I love to chat, let's do some PM's after this game, or just stay on and chat here! Right now, I got to play." or would I be better with: "Ja, Hi Hi. Hello hey. How today are you? " "Do speaks you some eastern Irutuskan?" "Goodf good? Ja or no? No more Englis I have" "Potensky andrejez undta das hasta faux tempus gleeban ola' schach de monkay?" . Or option #3 ... Oh I love to chat! I am from America, Iowa, 4th hill north of Berry Creek! Where you from? How far is that from you? I have played 20 years, when did you start? Did your Mom teach you? What do you do? Do you like this opening? What's it called? What time is it at your house? Why do you like Chess? What other games have you played? Where else do you play? What are your ratings there? Who do you know there? If I visit you do they Pepsi there? Who are your top ten chess players of alltime? Why do you think so? You are good, I bet you playt tournaments! What happened at your last tournament? Do you know how that 3 times draw works? I don't get it ... can you explain? Briefs or boxers? Taco's or Pizza? Britney or Kristina? Miller's or Bud? BTW Are you are Girl? How old are you, 21? Can you prove that? Or did you mean "12" like Ten plus Two, LOL ...haha * * * * * * * * * You DID ... um lol !? ********** GAME ABANDONED, YOU HAVE WON |

Chess news: The Great Chess Doping Scandal -- Chess Grandmaster Vassily Ivanchuk refused to submit a urine sample for a drug test at the Chess Olympiad in Dresden and is now considered guilty of doping. The world of chess is outraged that he could face a two-year ban. Professional chess player Vassily Ivanchuk, born in Berezhany, Ukraine in 1969, has been a grandmaster for the past 20 years and is currently ranked third in the world. The man with black hair and bedroom eyes is known as "Big Chucky" by his fellow chess players. Why? Because, after losing a game, he goes into the forest at night and howls at the moon to drive out the demons. Because he walks around in shorts in freezing temperatures. Because he likes to ... Magnus Carlsen quits Grand Prix -- The World Chess Federation (FIDE) plans to begin the third tournament of its Grand Prix series today in Elista, Russia. The first two Grand Prix tournaments were unqualified successes, featuring exciting chess battles between many of the world's top 20 grandmasters. The forecast for the rest of the series is less rosy. When organizers of Grand Prix chess events in Qatar and Switzerland backed out, FIDE President Kirsan Ilyumzhinov moved the Qatar tournament to his hometown of Elista and announced that Armenia would host a chess tournament. But FIDE also changed the rules, making the Grand Prix leader merely one of eight contenders in a tournament that ... Chess, by Lubomir Kavalek -- The defending chess champion, the Dallas Destiny, won the 2008 United States Chess League, a 14-team Internet competition that ended this month. Dallas's final match against the Boston Blitz was tied 2-2, but IM Davorin Kuljasevic won the title for Dallas, defeating former U.S. chess champion Larry Christiansen in the last game of the blitz tiebreak. An Attacking Gem. Before the match went into the tiebreak, Christiansen smashed IM Marko Zivanic with a powerful attack, most likely to be the best game of the competition. It matters to the Boston grandmaster how he wins. He created many beautiful combinations and spectacular sacrifices during his successful ... | |
