CGR Chess Game

Lightknight · 06-30-2005, 12:22 PM

Would anyone like to play me in a game of chess over this thread using chess notation and the nifty board I created below?

If so, please post in this thread and pm me with the challenge. It doesn't matter who the person is, just as long as you can play chess.

Yes that is indeed correct. Please feel free to clarify any time you are unsure.

The queen's indian defense is becoming an increasingly popular attack it seems.

B G2

This feels like a fast game of mail chess.

N B4

I don't know what the queen's indian defense or open book theory are...
(I don't play often)

QxB4

The queen's indian defense appeared to be what you were starting out playing. Most people are taught to play using that as a base. Open book theory involves pushing the middle pawns. I inserted the "?" to denote a blunder on your part. Your knight is of course not represented because my queen took it.

It wasn't a mistake, it was just a dumb move I realized as soon as I clicked send.
Its harder to notice things playing like this, but oh well.

Remember, this is a non-timed game. So take your time. If you notice something as you send, quickly edit your post to say such and then make a different move. I won't mind if it takes me a little extra work. But once my post is made, you can't change your move. And blunder actually refers to it being a bad move, not what you saying being a mistake.

Did you mean Nf6? Mistakes can be taken back. (not blunders)

Micahb · 07-05-2005, 04:16 PM

Ahh yes I did, sorry.

Lightknight · 07-05-2005, 05:16 PM

Ok, this is the corrected board.

My move is instead C4
