Blame me.
I have a run a piece of code that declares all 1.d4 d5 games a draw.
It's to avoid Colle's, London Systems, QGD's/ QGA's and the Exchange Variation.
But most of all the Slav.
Don't bash closed games, you can win or lose them just as badly as Two Knights'. And better than that bl*#*&dy Philidor...

".....the Ruy Lopez Exchange variation"
I have too. If I don't get rid of that Bishop soon then I'll
only sac it on f7 or h7 usually for two checks and lost game.
It's called 'knowing thyself.'
Not to mention after dxc6 I no longer have to worry about
or watch for am equalising d5 from Black.
At least I don't sneak it into play with g3 and Bg2.
And anyway Bxc6 wins me the minor exchange.
Knights are better than Bishops - everyone knows that.

Originally posted by Mott The HoopleYou started off on the right foot and were getting help, but the one-word "wrong" and "stupid" quips meant that the original smart ass behind a keyboard was ...
It must be a sad existence Paul Ligette. All I wanted was some help understanding a site problem, instead I get replies (except for some, and I thank you) from people that were no doubt beat down as wimpy children and get their kicks being smart asses behind a keyboard.
I've no problem with the 'Stupid' comment.
But it seemed to me the lad had his question answered
so me and my smart-ass keyboard slipped in a gag.
Perhaps if he had gone to 'Help Forum' ....
But I'm glad Mott The Hoople stumbled on to this Forum.
If only he had played @Ian-Hunter we could post the game.
Well not including the 100's of White makes the first move and timeout wins.
It's Me! Incredible but it's true. Game 5229133
There is (unless one was played from September last year) no other like it.
The lad said he moved too quick.
When is the 2015 RHP Championship going to start?
I'm Black.
