This is a thread to remember those usernames which are no longer with us despite the owner still being with us, or at least alive.
This is the second Christmas without HandyAndy. He is much missed.

Did anyone ever find out for sure what happened to Andy?

We always assume the worst.

He is such a fine man, I assume he is still with us, one way or the other. When he was still active here, he gave a stability to the forums and in our games. Much missed,

I liked his mischievous sense of humour and the fact that he sometimes didn't suffer fools gladly.

He and Grampy Bobby had many disputes, I recall, which I enjoyed reading.

Yes, like HandyAndy, I also found Grampy Bobby to be very unimpressive, albeit not all the time.

There was so much of their disputes I didn't understand but I liked them all the same. These posters made a difference and that's why we miss them.

Grampy Bobby was just superior to you in every way fmf, you don't get on well with people smarter than you are.

Have a Very Merry Christmas! 🙂

LOL@ the-grifter, my friend you really could use a chess book to show you some openings and perhaps defences. Your intuition doesn't seem to be paying off. 🙂
