I tend to make a move against him and then go around the world on a skateboard. He's usually moved upon my return, but not always. 🙂
Not that I mind. Chess is a journey after all, not a race.
I would still give it a go though!!!

Would be fun to play 2 games using each color. I am sure you will win both, but I will try my best of course.

EDIT: I see you already sent the challange with me playing white! Now one with me playing black would be good. 😉

This thread has taken some twists and turns I never expected even one person being banned from the site. Now that is a first for a thread I started, I think! 😉
