Invitation sent to @Curmudgeon. Just whenever you are ready good sir. Please ground your bairn for the next 6 years and take away all their pocket money……… my only hope is if aimhere somehow gets tied in his basement for 24 hours and gets timed out just to clarify to the court, if that happens it is 100% not me that’s guilty……… 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aim Here Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Sorry about the delay, but I've been a bit sidetracked with work and other issues.

Guest Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Cup Quarter final, stewartmathers v IncomingExile. In what must surely be the shock of the decade, IncomingExi..................... nah, only joking. A predictable win for the newly promoted stewartmathers/freebeer who never had to break sweat. I had to sacrifice a rook in something like move seventeen when I belatedly spotted a potential mate in two, but from there I thought I was doing a bit of half-decent defence until a characteristic queen blunder opened up a triple fork for his knight, and at that point it was all over. Still managed a couple of checks of my own but only in the way that a cat will let a mouse creep under the sideboard........ Well played and good luck in the semi-final. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty even match until I attacked your rook with my bishop while setting up mate for my next move, which you averted well. The knight fork on your Queen, Rook, King, (and one of your pawns!) on move 25 sent the home crowd into raptures, and chants of "we can see you sneaking out" soon followed, as your faithful away supporters made an early exit. Most enjoyable match, and good luck with Season 8! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
