Arameh you silly man, I live two provinces west of you. Why does everyone always think I'm European?

I'll try and send you some times I'm available at tomorrow.

The admin Martin.

Also I decided to offer the played games for download. You need a pgn viewer like xboard/winboard to view them if you don't just want to view a textfile, but appreciate some gfx.

Arameh and I want to scrap our game and have a rematch.

We played, but on turn 32 or something the program did something weird and used up one of his turns to arbitrarily move his Knight back to a square he has just moved it off of.

Is there anyway you can erase the game, so we can just have a rematch without any crazy glitches/unexpected things happening?

No. not possible. I would recommend to use winboard instead of the online thing. Also he would have been checkmate in move 31 if you had not missed it.

*sigh*

I have to withdraw as well. Either I have too much work to do, or I'm too tired from all the work I have to do :(

I'm sorry :(

I liked playing chess (in fact, it was the first time in my life that I actually played chess!) and I suggest starting a bigger tourney (with more games).

Also, I'd eventually like to play against all participants, just to gain some experience ;)

If anyone runs into me on msn, I'd be willing to have a game (of Chess, not Backgammon).

I'm so silly. I forgot that one time I played chess against me and almost lost to myself. But I still need some experience.

I could offer a round robin tourney, that is everybody plays everybody. Before signing up make sure that you can spend 1-2 hours a week. It is always bad for everybody else if someone needs to withdraw. Also time constraints will be rather soft, I think it is more important that everybody plays, than to force a 7-day rule on them.

Hmm I'm somewhat interested too. I guess I'll take a look at that website later. I haven't played chess in a few years, but I could probably still make a decent match.

Edit: Hmm that email limitation thing is quite an annoyance.
