No prob man, I'm getting sleepy myself... and its only 9PM, wtf is wrong with me...

 

[GMT]

LOL D1 X D4

 

[GMT]

Yeah, it's gone 5am here

 

[southpaw]

Lmao, I'm dozing at the screen...

Err, where is your queen? I grabbed your e-pawn with my knight, not your d4 knight.

Let's pick this up again tomorrow before we both start losing pieces. : )

 

[GMT]

My queen was the last piece I moved, used her to take your Knight. No worries I'm sleepy too and the tv shows just ran out. See ya tomorrow. I'll post a pic of my board before we start up again, that way we can ensure we are looking at the same thing.

 

[GMT]

oh right hang on i need to study this we have gone wrong somewhere

 

[GMT]

ok the prob was at my end i took my wrong pawn with your knight i thought you were laughing at me miscounting 5 instead of 4 and miscounted the letter rather than the numbers this time I've put it right and rather than my D1-D4 My move is D4XE5 which is I'm sure what you were expecting

 

[southpaw]

hehe np... ill catch ya tomorrow.

 

[GMT]

yeah, I'll post the pic in about 10 hours or so, see ya later

[stoner 13th]

was playing around with the start page of the thread- the poll is supped to read "stone chess sets?" not stoner chess sets, lol-

also, is there a way to take down that poll and put up a new one, or edit that poll- still dont know all the options here on icmag-

9:10am here, gonna be airborne in two hrs, extreme wake n bake at very high dose should keep me ticking over,

 

[GMT]

Yeah Ayhev, I remembered it was something along those lines, but I didn't want to try to tackle the complexity of your situation myself.

OK, here's my board as it stands, Hope it looks something like your's Southpaw. Your move I believe.

 

[southpaw]

ER recount F3 X D4 SORRY

Hey mate, good morning.

This is where we got confused. I think you meant to type c3Xd4? F3 is your knight, thats why I grabbed your pawn.

This is what we get for playing in the wee hours lol.

To recap:

1. e4 e6
2. e5 d5
3. c3 c5
4. Bb5+ Bd7
5.a4 a6
6. Bxd7 Qxd7
7. Nf3 Nc6
8. d4 c5xd4

And here if you meant c3xd4, I think I'll try ... Ng8-h6 instead of losing my knight.

 

[southpaw]

[GMT]

so where do we go from here?

 

[southpaw]

17 F3-D4

Okay. if your Knight takes on d4...

18 C6-E5

And my knight takes on e5...

19 D4-E5

How is this possible? That's what isn't making sense.

 

[southpaw]

Hehe we'll get this straightened out.

 

[GMT]
