Does it take the smart guys in Houston so long to calculate your next move...?

Sorry for the delay, now that we're out of book I need to start thinking but have been doing as little of that as possible lately

I will have a reply for you though the same day you read this.

Yours: 15. .../Nd7-c5
Mine: 16. Rab1

Skybird · 04-09-06, 05:52 AM

Damn it, this position really has some depth and hidden intricacies! Just went over it for five minutes and thought the answer of mine is obvious, and then it was 30 minutes, and now over an hour, already.

Sometime later this day, then. Need to get a new cooler for my biological CPU first. It's not that this position is simple in potential, and structure. i found one match from the German 2nd Bundesliga, where they were agreeing on remis some moves later, but White played one or two weaker moves. And anyhow - remis...? I beg you...!

Its very subtle and complex yes. I had glanced at it many times over the last few days only to get side tracked before deciding anything... there's no hurry anyway, as I doubt either of us will blitz through this

Yours: 16. Rab1
Mine: 16. .../e7-e6

This position really holds the risk of some major braindamage. Took me quite some time, around three hours... I expected that rook on the d-line.

scandium · 04-10-06, 06:28 PM

Still chewing this over... I'd debated last time where to put that R, as the only thing I was certain of was that I wanted to move it. In the end it was more or less a coin toss between b1, d1, and e1. Anyway I should have a reply for you sometime Tuesday.

scandium · 04-11-06, 09:07 PM

Your last: 16. .../e7-e6
My move: 17. g2-g4

Time for the Infantry to earn their keep.

We're here to entertain you!

Why don't you join the fun? If I interpret him correctly, Takeda has withdrawn, but Torplexed maybe is looking for a new opponent.

Scandium,

you repeatedly have shown now a stubborn impertinence to make moves that I did not expect with a high probability, that way you really run the risk that one day I will take ferocious revenge for your ongoing lack of cooperation
