Have a good rest mate, I'll be around as much as possible over the weekend =)

Speedchess, eh? :lol:

heheh

I don't know about fatty, but I was tearing my hair out bored at work, so I was sitting there trying to predict his next moves, etc. Most effort I put into any game!

Then I got caught up in my own plans, neglected my flank a little too much while building up for an attack, and ouch, there goes my knight and rook.

god fun though, I haven't played a real person in more than 10 years!

Its not really a case of starting early, its more a case of time - i have no weekends for 7 months of the year now, and we don't wanna leave it too late!
