That last part is pretty vain. Why should we appreciate something you did of your own free will? We didn't ask you to do it. Not to be rude but thats the way I see. It also helps you to annotate the games you said you would be happy to annotate your games so I assume that you enjoy annotating which would mean that you also did these for your own pleasure. Why should we appreciate that? 😉
I chose option two. I wasn't so much being "vain" as I was trying to force everyone into taking a step back, and seeing how critical they're being of someone who is only trying to do positive.
If you think I'm a weak player, if you think you don't want to learn from a poor 1355, and if you think my games aren't of your caliber than please feel free to not pay attention to anything i do.
As for the witch hunt, you can hunt me all you want... I think my choice of the mieses opening (A00) for multiple games should be detail enough.

I have no doubt that you understand I may not be a 1355 with less than 30 games played on an ICC site where stronger players fear giving someone like myself a chance to beat them.
Edit:Yes. I said it.
and finally, the winky face was hot.

Originally posted by AdoreaWell, you quoted me so I figured you were directing it at me... Maybe I am just too logical when I get onto a chess site. 😕

Originally posted by tomtom232i didn't quote you when i said that...i quoted afterwards... What i was saying in the post (which had no QUOTE!) was a blanket statement to everyone who had posted, and was applicable only to those in that direct line of thinking, if you weren't in that line of thinking than you do not belong.

So has any player popped any of these games into chessbase? or at least worked through any of this?
Just curious to see what players think about my lines. If I get some response other than what has been already left, I may do a few more threads like this....otherwise i'll just hoard them to myself 😀

Actually, now that I've gone through some of his games, it's clear that Adorea was just hot air. He played horrible chess in most of his games on RHP, including this one against Nowakowski: Game 5319911
When I went through the game I spotted a quicker win for Nowakowski:
This is a standard mating pattern when the queen and bishop are attacking a king in a corner. In fact in this case it can be improved on by one move [29. Nf7#], but the finish I've posted is more instructive as the discovered check covering the flight square [29. Bf7+ covering g6] is very common.
