Game 615779 is as fine an example I can think of as to how not to develop your pieces😵

Should be fun to watch how this one, um, develops.

Maybe your opponent is from the Muhammad Ali school of chess. Right now he is "floating like a butterfly," and later on he hopes to "sting like a bee."

Hmm....he seems to be taking a serene, almost Buddhist approach to the game.

While I don't want to be critical of thug, it does appear that he's uncertain as to how the other pieces move. I believe this opening falls under the "drunk Knight" category.

He may be trying to play for a draw by threefold repetition. Maybe someone should explain to him that the other guy's position has to repeat three times, too. 🙂

I always don't like to speak about games in progress,but THIS is incredible!
I clicked on the game link and it appeared a game that's not started for White ,while Black is playing against a ghost opponent.
I repeat:it's something unbelievable,I'll never see again one like this.

That's a no-no, TovMauzer; you can't give advice on moves in an ongoing game no matter how idiotic (oops) er, unorthodox the other player might be "moving". Let the game finish and then it can be discussed!

Please....lighten up. Disgrace is pretty strong stuff, obviously my opponent is clowning around here. These forums at times have been loaded with more miserable and nonsensical crap, and a guy cant even have a little fun in the chess only section. Show me where in the 'Official Rules of Chess Forums" where it says I cant post this. I got your "disgrace" swingin....
