Dies to Removal

Oops! I actually saw that earlier, but obviously forgot...

Menu-->Load Game-->Load from last checkpoint?-->Yes.

Nope, you're good.

In retrospect, my best shot at winning may have been NOT making the safe choice. I need to you make a mistake at this point, so I should really be offering as many choices as possible.

As you wish.

Heh, assuming I remember. There were three that I was strongly considering, but every time I come back to this game I think, "Now what was my plan again?"

Hmm... I've got a few very interesting lines here. I'm really really tempted to try something else for fun, but I don't think you'd play along. Besides, this is too safe to pass up.

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... _Rbe8_cxd4

By far the best move available. I was hoping you wouldn't see that out. It's so much harder to play against an opponent that rarely makes mistakes.

Time for Plan B.

Chopdiceslice.

Nomnom.

I hope so.

This is either genius, or a terrible idea. But let's roll.

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... 4_Nxg4_O-O

Yumyumyum.

Don't offer the trade when you're down a rook and two pawns, Blackhound... You nearly had her!

Still, I don't think he'll go for it.

Feels good to be on the offensive for once!

Hmm... I know I had a plan with that Knight move... But now I have no idea what it was...

This seems okay anyway.

Good move...

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... Qb3_f4_Ne6

Sorry for the wait. Hard choice so I had to give it a few days thought. (not really)

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... Ng5_d5_Qb3

Actually, I'm just looking at this again, and yes, yes it was.

Eh, like you really could have avoided losing your bishop anyway.

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... _h4_g4_Ng5

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... Qxc4_g5_h4

Your turn...

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... _Bxc4_Qxc4

Just tryin' stuff.

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... b5_Rb8_Bc4

Oh. Yes. That's true. I hadn't even considered that. Good call.

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... b4_Ne4_Qb5

Of course I'm conceding my stake. Anywhere else I moved my queen would have seen her killed. I knew that was inevitable when I said I had a 90% chance of losing way back when.

Let's see if this helps...

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... _Qe2_f5_b4

Really? Freeing my black bishop is pretty key to my future plans and it's not like you're going to be giving me a chance to make dumb pawn moves from here on out.

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... c3_Be6_Qe2

We can keep rolling for a few more moves. Not quite ready to concede yet.

Er, I mean, NEVER SURRENDER!

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... _Bxc3_dxc3

I'm betting there's about a 90% chance I'm going to lose the game at this point. You've capitalised too much already.

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... _Qc4_d6_a3

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... c3_Nc5_Qc4

Whew, safe at last.

I'm feeling claustrophobic...

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... 3_Nxe4_Nc3

Rabbits are faster than Bishops.

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... f3_Bb4_Qb3

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... c3_Nc6_Nf3

Yes, apparently you do...

http://www.apronus.com/chess/wbeditor.p ... f3_Nf6_Qc3

(I almost always start off with that move against a player I haven't played before. You passed the test.)
