Default Chessmatch IV: Torplexed v. Takeda (The Tak Strikes Back)

Here comes Round 2. This time I'm wearing the white hats, crowns, and miters. I appeal to the Most Munificent Neal for a sticky.

1. e2-e4

TA-KE-DA !!! WHERE ARE YOU ??? If I would have the choice between Harakiri and kille-kille, I would know what to do.

"Wo bleibt Tod in schwarzem Kleide,
wo bleibt Tod und tötet mich?
Oder besser noch - uns beide!
Oder besser: erst mal dich!"

My God, these colours...! You use a laboratory to pick these eye-hurting combinations? I think I never saw a chessboard with orange fields before, not even a plastic toy-kit...

Bright yellow and poisenous green also promises to disrupt your opponent!

Yeah....I call this color variation 'Toxic Gatorade". That'd probably be a good name for a speed metal band too.

2. Ng8-f6....Takeda's move

3. Bf1-c4

I've come to the conclusion that the color combination on my chessboard is violating too many local environmental ordinances. It's back to simple monochrome from this point out.

4. c7-c6...Takeda's move

5. d2-d3
