Schliemann errrr NmDavidB
"It was a warm day, warm as far as winters in NY go. I'd been partnered up with someone they call "The Devourer". He was well known for eating the chess pieces he captured, as well as his opponents on rare occasions.
He was rated 22k'jillion, I was rated 98k'zillion... so it was a pretty fair match up. It was a winner takes all match to the PAIN, but The Devourer couldn't be trusted to stick with the rules.
We got through the opening quickly enough, when he decided to skip the middle game and went straight into the endgame. He looked to in entourage with pride, he felt he had me cornered.
I moved my queen to king bishop 5, and he took the bait smiling. Everyone applauded. Little did he know I had a trick up my sleeve.
STEAMING DOWN FROM KING'S NIGHT 3 CAME MY BIG BLACK BISHOP! My opponent was stunned. I whispered "check".
His stunning girlfriend began to weep, "No baby, no... hold on. You can do it".
The Devourer's hands trembled as he moved his King to Queen's Rook 1.
I looked at him again, picking up my Rook and moving it to the back rank.
"Checkmate".

-Removed-I certainly did not get the boot.
I left of my own free will...I even left before that and they Cried, and CRIED for me to come back to finish up my League games, which I did.
After my last move I left.
You NEVER seem to know what the HELL you're talking bout dive, what is with that?
2nd EDIT: I have no idea what happened with Grampy Bobby, because I had already left.
Grampy Bobby was too good for that bunch anyways, they did him a favour, IF you are correct on that one!!!
