Sry, i sorta left this post to the dogs and didnt specify much, but the mirror answer was correct

here is another:

2 chess grandmasters play 8 games. Niether of them loses any of the games and there were no draws. How is this possible?

Notes to consider(If you cant get the answer here is a few hints):
-The games where all finnished/complete
-n ...[text shortened]... loss
-niether player has a tie
-what possible outcomes are there other then a tie and a loss?
They weren't playing each other.

edit: oopsie. what I meant to say is what the person before me said, OR himself and five dogs, or himself, another person, and SIX three-legged dogs.

My math was off.

Also note, dogs may be replaced with sheep, cows, goats, any standard farm animal.
You are sooo cute.

Wow, thank you!!

You'd better be careful though, comments like that will set you up for a good lambasting by some of those who take offense to friendly banter in the oh-so-serious puzzles forum.

No, hands on! I am rather enjoying our frequent games, Mr. T is an excellent chess player.

Edit: I forgot to mention the wonderful conversation as well, I need some sort of excuse for all these *ss-beatings.

Just be careful, my dear. Mr T. is not who he appears to be.

Be wary of any suggestions you may receive and try not to let the conversation stray onto the subject of trousers. Let him win and you should be safe. Do NOT reply to his private messages and ignore all links to certain websites. Indulge his enthusiasm for trains and finish your games as quickly as possible.

I'll speak to you soon and make sure you're OK.

So you think next month's face to face game is a bad idea?
