 | | tamar: <Benjamin Lau>You're technically right. It is a common misunderstanding. Uncastling on move 21 starts time backwards so 20 grasshopper to c5 allows the special bird move with triple check on move 19. |
 |
| Jan-27-04 | | clendenon: I don't know what you are talking about, and I went to the university of southern North dakota. |
 |
| Jan-27-04 | | Benjamin Lau: Okay, great, I was making sure I understood the rules of chess. Thank god it's as I thought it is. ^_^ |
 |
| Jan-27-04 | | sleepkid: Benjamin: Yes, but tommorow's puzzle is being presented on a Wednesday and as we ALL know the double check rule is divided in half and added to itself on Wednesdays, making it a triple check. Of course, since the game that the puzzle is from was played on a Tuesday during a Leap Year in the last century, it is up for debatable whether or no this rule can be applied as such. We'll have to consult rules subsection J appendix ZQ line 4343.33MMizadork/P (but of course, we can only consult the rulebook on every third Saturday, so we'll have to wait a bit before we can confirm this solution.) Tamar: Oh! I completely forgot about the reverse time fluxations. Where is my flux capacitor? Who stole my Tardis? Did I really say up for debatable? It must be an abberationality in the coherant grid system of the speech patternboxoperational thing-a-ma-bob. |
 |
| Jan-27-04 | | Benjamin Lau: Ooops, sorry sleepkid, I had to borrow it for a game. I'll give it back to you after I use it for my acorn piece. |
 |
| Jan-27-04 | | rythm: hey cocky talchess 2003!y dont you meet me at yahoo. |
 |
| Jan-27-04 | | sleepkid: ...yeah! And then meet me in front of the Louvre for a fistfight! . . . or a vicious game of tiddlywinks, and then I'll go draw moustaches on your favourite painting. . . ...yeah! |

| Jan-28-04 | | catfriend: <sleepkid> I know you know it, but your sense of humour is delicious!!!!!!!! |
 |
| Jan-28-04 | | sleepkid: tastes like tacos... |
 |
| Jan-28-04 | | catfriend: LOL Yam-Yam... The tiddlywinks-champ strikes again! Ten portions of humour for 4999.99 $! You say it's too much? Well, otherwise you'd have cheap humour... |
 |
| Jan-28-04 | | clendenon: they look like tacos too. |
 |
| Aug-18-04 | | Marius: How does 13.Nd4 prevent 13. ..Bh6? |
 |
| Aug-18-04 | | sneaky pete: <Marius> AA's original note reads <Erschwert die feindliche Entwicklung, insbesondere durch Entwertung der Diagonale c8-h3>. This last part has been translated in English descriptive as the diagonal QB1-KR6 and now back into algebraic notation erroneously as the diagonal h6-c1. <The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak>. |
 |
| Aug-18-04 | | Marius: to sneaky pete : thank you , it clearer |
 |
| Oct-25-04 | | dac1990: It's incredible that Alekhine was able to do this blindfolded and play on 27 other boards simultaneously. |
 |

 | | Calli: <dac1990> See Benzol's note on the first page about Alekhine "doctoring" the game. He gave one version in "On the Road" and another in "My Best Games", neither being correct. |
 |
| Nov-08-04 | | mparry: perhaps an easy-looking problem after u c the solution and think OH-DUH!!! which is y so many claim 2 hav seen it quickly. but with all of the possibilities, it really is tuf 2 find the correct 1 |
 |
| Dec-19-04 | | who: <Chessgames.com> in the notes to move 13 it says something about the black bishop on the C diagonal. There is no longer a black dark squared bishop. |
 |
| Dec-19-04 | | who: 8...Ne4 seems good. |
 |
| May-06-05 | | soberknight: After the checkmate, Black was no longer a "Free man". |
 |

 | | Benzol: Glad to see that the name has been corrected here. Now all that needs to be corrected is the gamescore. |
 |

 | | Phony Benoni: Note to 13.Nd4: <"Preventing an effective development of the Black Bishop on the diagonal h6-c1."> Was it necessary to spend a move doing this? I don't see how Black's bishop can control that diagonal in any case. |
 |
Aug-05-07
 | | Calli: <Phony Benoni> see Sneaky Pete's note of August 2004. It should read c8-h3 diagonal. |
 |
| Sep-02-09 | | WhiteRook48: insult to injury |
 |
| Dec-20-09 | | ToTheDeath: I first saw this mate in Fred Reinfeld's 1001 Tricky Checkmates. |
