Hard to say. I don't make moves on here anymore. I learned that the hard way.
I love playing OTB though and do it on a weekly basis. This is a game I played as black last week against my buddy who is rated 1700+ on here...
1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 Nc6 6. Be3 g6 7. Qd2 Bg7 8. Bc4
O-O 9. f3 Qc7 10. O-O-O Nxd4 11. Qxd4 Ng4 12. ...[text shortened]...
21. Nd5 e6 22. Nc3 Bd2 23. Rd1 Bxc3 24. bxc3 Ke7 25. Kb2 Be8 26. Rd4 e5 27. Rd3
Rxc4 0-1

I guess you have to do something here since you "don't make moves here anymore." I'm sooooo gratified to know that we aren't totally wasting your time.

You started it...
I remember at my uni's Christian Music and Drama society we were having a competition to see how many Bible stories we could act out in as little time as possible (and people guessed them). We used smoking pot for the "stoning of stephen". Wish I'd have thought of using that here earlier... 🙁

Please explain
If you're ever in Ireland, i'd be more than happy to meet you and discuss the pros and cons of this thread.

Here is the photos of the last one.
I have to say that, everyone that i have met at these meets have been gosh darn decent chaps, although some might say inadequate.
The pub where it is held has chess boards under the bar, so we could even just meet there and have a friendly game, no worries.
