very dramatic background there guys... :)

Is this the chess game of the century? :yep:

Not if I can prevent that! :arrgh!:

Wow, no moves yet and already five posts :DL

Go ahead and take the first move Skybird, good luck.

Aren't we two polite gentlemen. :lol:

Sorry for being a little slow off the mark, I was working all day, should be a little better tomorrow and throughout the week :)

The time-space-continuum will survive it! :)

3. g2-g3 c7-c6

English opening, Bremen system, Keres variation :up:

I wonder what chess programs you're all using.
;)

But if you trust that you're all gentlemen, I guess it suffices.

4. Ng1-f3

English, Keres - can cut both ways, they say. What do you know about it that I don't...? :hmmm:

...that black wins 33.7% of the games to white's 40% :dead:

Somehow a snippet of Judas Priest seemed appropriate... add electric guitars and a howling voice yourself. :D

"I will stand, I will fight
You'll never take me alive
I'll stand my ground
I won't go down

You won't break me
You won't take me
'Cuz I'll fight you,
Under blood red skies

You won't break me
You won't take me
'Cuz I'll face you under
blood red skies"

March of the pawns under a checkered sky! :salute:

@Porphy,

Judas Priest I do not have in my collection of listening habits, but Resphighi's fourth part of the "Pines of Rome", The Pines of the Appian Way:

A bit too slow my for my taste - but who am I to criticise Karajan!?
