I hope this week you play with clocks, and don't show us pictures of the space shuttle, what the heck is that about anyway? If people want that stuff they can google it.

Why I add about my rating not being BS, at 1800 FICS at lightening, is because you cannot fake a 1min lightning game with a computer. That is what most people do. They fake cames with computers. At real chess, over a board, I am about 2250 -2300.

[tfh962]

I'm not a master. But I do play alot, and have played for along time, at clubs etc. My rating is about 2300 ICC, and 2000 or so on FICS, my user name is Duckyswanson --- and you know that my rating is not BS, because I am 1800 at lightning, which is 1min games. 1800 FICS = 2200 ICC

That maybe true, and I am not doubting that. But the fact is, you have to tell the other person you resign. IIt does not just come down to weather you are low on pieces on not.

[mantis707]

Are you a master then? What is your USCF ID#?

[mantis707]

The show was out of time....are you stupid? Of course he resigned....

What is your point you utter douche bag?

[mantis707]

You might not think it is over....but that is because you are an idiot....You are the kind of person who keeps playing when you lose your queen or rook like you have a chance to win.....Phil resigned because he was completely lost...

[tfh962]

but you never said you resigned Phil, you have to say it -- or you have to knock over your King. Otherwise its not the end of the game.

[tfh962]

you can complete a game unless, someone resigns. Phil had to have resigned.

[tfh962]

Mantis, you don't even know how to play chess. Go back to the monopoly board, you patzer.
