It's about style not about speed.
If you had, you could have come on here and gone.
"WASSUP! LOOK AT THIS FREAKIN' SWEET MATE WIT' ALL...MY...MINOR...PIECES! PRETTY NEAT, HUH?"😀
The problem I have with all this is that we can all utterly trash opponents less experienced than ourselves, I had quite a pretty mate in 6 against someone tonight, although it was all from a database (I may have worked it out for myself, but I'll never know) and in the return game I'm under oath not to use one (for only the second time in over 1,000 games). Now if the thread initiator wants to challenge me (he'll need to pm me first) then we'll see about bishop moves in the opening...
