we still good for 11-6?

 

[southpaw]

Lmao, I'll be there. I think GMT is busy working on ways to booby trap all of us.

Me, I'm just hoping Green Bay wins tomorrow and makes me a small pile of cash.

 

[stoner 13th]

crazy weekend here- not sure how the tourny is going to go yet, but im not going to able to play this week- if you guys would like you could play a mini tourny with 4-

round1- Shiva vs fearfactory
GMT vs southpaw


hows that sound- then the winners play for 1st place and the losers play for 3rd?

cya guys in a few days

 

[GMT]

hmmm, maybe we should just get this over then and let vision play southpaw lol.
Pitty to lose ya out of this Stoner, you started all this off. I can't believe that out of 10,000 members, there's only 6 players here, and what ever happened to those who popped in and then were never seen again?
Great, I get southpaw, and after we spent a while sending pms back and to, discussing the strengths (cough lol) and weaknesses of my game. Oh well, Southpaw, grab a coin and flip it will ya. I call tails for white.

 

[southpaw]

Lmao, you got white. I'm out for a bit but I'll see if I can catch you in chat later.

 

[GMT]

hey southpaw, you about? This tourny is gonna take some time me thinks lol, ok I'll open with B2-B4

 

[southpaw]

Hey man, yeah I've got alot of shit going on this week, plus voting today...

1... Ng8-f6

 

[GMT]

Ah good, I thought you were analysing each and every outcome from the opening b2-b4 lol.

 

[southpaw]

Ah good, I thought you were analysing each and every outcome from the opening b2-b4 lol.

Lmao, yep I've got every contigency figured out.

Is there a move forthcoming?

 

[GMT]

oh yeah I need to move dont I. Suppose I'd better set my board up now, hang on,

 

[GMT]

ok, I've done all the calculations, and the odds are in my favour by 11-10 if I go c2-c4 lol.

 

[southpaw]

Haha, even money?

2... g7-g6. I'll try to be on some tomorow.

 

[stoner 13th]

decided to get away this week and took a trip up into no mans land- just started driving north. I found this beautiful place on top of a mountain to watch the sunrise- You could see miles in every direction and the sky was a burning red- some pics provided- also found this sign i thought was funny-

 

[GMT]

Hi Southpaw, I had to go out before I could work out what to do now you've evened the odds lol. I'm gonna have to take a risk here, a2-a4.

Hey Stoner, wondered where you'd got to, a road trip hey, sounds good, what did the sign second to bottom read, couldnt quite make that one out from the photo.

Are vision and fear factory playing their game or not?

 

[southpaw]

Yeah great pics. Doesn't it say X Games L.A? Couldn't quite make it out myself...

3... Bf8-g7

 

[stoner 13th]

lol, ya it says X-games L.A. 2630 miles--

havnt heard from either of our other players, ill send pm's tonight

 

[GMT]

cool, I sat and watched an xgames in la, half way down between santa monica and venice beach, pretty cool stuff on tv, but watching it live is diff again.

Right so southpaw, threatening a long strike hey? Here's my starwars defence system, c1-b2

 

[southpaw]

Ahh fuck starwars, I'm going to get Captain Picard out of the way by castling kingside.

4... 0-0.

 

[southpaw]

Well, me and GMT finished this one on chat. It ended fairly soon after GMT donated a pair of knights and a rook to a charity of his choice. If anyone's interested I'll PM them a game record.

Not sure if the tourney is still on, but if it is me and GMT are playing again tomorrow. I figure what with the time differences a game finished at 3AM for one side isn't exactly fair. : )
