If anyone wants to play me at chess, join www.redhotpawn.com and let me know. My name is Mjordan2nd on the site...just let me know if you want to play.

Years ago yeah. I never could beat my dad on a consistant basis though.

Perhaps I shall start up again. I've been bored lately and am about to polish off the last of my manga's.

What's your account name?
Want to get a game going?

How good are you?

If you're not one of these Chess computers then I'll have you a game sometime.

My username's Lenny1882.

My rating is generally around 1700, though it's a bit lower right now.

I looked you up, but couldn't find you.

I suck at it, man. But I love chess. :/

I've found you, and I challenge you to a duel!

I've made the first move. Your go.

Sorry it took so long...just moved.

And you're trying the 4-move-checkmate strategy. Shame on you!

EDIT: Different timezones, don't forget, so this game may take a looong time.

No problem...

And no, I was not trying the four move checkmate...

I like e4, c4 as white and e5, c5 as black.

If anyone cares, here's the game:

Whee... let's let everyone watch me lose. :)

I've been caught out with the Checkmate in 4 moves strategy too many times. I don't take those chances.

You should.

I thought it was just called "Fool's mate"?

I've heard it called that, or Scholar's Mate, or Blitzkreig.

Lenny

I only know it as "Checkmate in 4 moves".

Aight lenny, it's time to du-du-du-du-duel!

lol, this game is gonna suck so much.

Lenny
2007-01-15, 01:23 PM
And for quite some time, too. :p

Has anyone apart from Joe and I played MJ yet? If so, has anyone beaten him?

$5 I am going to lose, I ahven't played chess in months and by months I mean like 6 plus months.

I am rusty as fuck at this game.

Lenny

Now if I was playing one of my friends from school, I'd gladly put £5 on you losing... but you Americans/Canadians seem to play a completely different style of Chess that I'm used to.

And if I get what you're implying, then I'm screwed.

What are you talking about...

I've never seen this british style you speak of.

MightyJoe

Good game lenny. Time for round 2, and round 3 vs Mj.

Lenny
2007-01-16, 07:14 AM
Well I'll be... you got me.

And only in 42 moves, too. :p

Magical number. Whooo-ooo!

Actually, I'm already at the limit of how many games I can play, although I'm one move away on one game, so whoever challenges me first after I finish that game can play me.

T'ain't gonna be me. I'm not playing with fire until I've got me a fireproof vest.

Who else has played you apart from Joe and I?

Demosthenes
2007-01-16, 07:54 PM
I think that you two are the only ones.

I'm done with my game, if anyone wants to play.

I used to be on the top 100 player list.

I was like 25 or something out of a couple thousand active players.

10 x more fun than regular chess.

No thanks, that game is the complete opposite for me, I hate how its played.
