Stellaboz Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Quick question, won a couple of games, but ranking doesn't go up and it says Variant Standard (unrated) Do I have to change something on settings or something like that. Thanks in advance.It's a bit shit on the app that it's limited in what you can start with a new game. Better on the website if you want to challenge with rating on the line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal234ey Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Division B paakman beats RBWatson by checkmate. Good game, you had some nice positions that were causing me issues until a mate position sort of fell into my lap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweeperDee Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Division CXCTR94 beats N5_Spur by checkmate.Good game, ended up a bit drawn out purely by Spurs good defensive work, but he could only do so much when I had 2 queens promoted and a rook against a bishop. Well played chief. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, enjoyed trying to defend myself but the outcome was inevitable early on - as mentioned, I need to work out a defensive plan against your openings (it's happened to me before). I was quite happy with my 88% rating but the result was never in doubt. Enjoy your impending promotion! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good game, yeah u kinda roamed wild with a horse for a while which allowed me a nice position, there was no stopping my impending promotion of at least 1 pawn. Cheers for the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a little ahead and as we traded more material that seemed to continue to be the case.

You developed better so even though you were 3 points up it was more like 7 as my h file rook might as well have not been there. I didn't have a plan to deal with your pawn set up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Mark beats Mackieboz by checkmate. Very well played. Traded and I thought I might have the upper hand until I never noticed a rook fork. Fucking stupid castle b*****d is getting dropped after that. Need good, honest pieces. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you did have the slight upper hand until that point as I was needing to defend - think I just managed to sneak that fork in behind another attack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was wild game, I felt like I was always behind. You got a bit of the drop on me, with my kingside being exposed. I felt like I was having to find only moves to stay in this one often being 1 move from mate. Absolutely wild. This is where it turned in my favour as it got so complicated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this chess match was a football game, it would have been Dundee United v Aberdeen on 4 August 2007, when we were down to 10 men for almost an hour (Willo Flood sent off on his debut) and, completely against the run of play, snatched a 90th minute winner... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
