 | | technical draw: TD reporting a win against <Quantum Choir> player <qwkslvr>. The other game looks like a winner too. |
|
Aug-13-12
| | technical draw: <I play the Fred> We can call that the mother of all blunders! |
|
| Aug-13-12 | | I play the Fred: <td> Sadly, I made the <father> of all blunders in my other match. |
|
| Aug-13-12 | | I play the Fred: I could just say I believe in paying it forward...? |

| Aug-15-12 | | A.G. Argent: Finally getting one of my games v. <Yerevan> done with. Got him a move from mate. Seems like we started it back when Truman was president. The other one, however, has another couple president's terms written all over it at this guys pace. But we take the set, eh, Chief? |

|
Aug-15-12
| | technical draw: Too bad about the slowpokes. TD reports another win against <Quantum Choir> player <qwkslvr>. That make it 2-0. |

 | | brankat: <Captain> <The Team> Here is a game I completed (won) 3 weeks ago, after 4 months struggle, with My opponent dragging his feet for 5 days in between moves :-) The team is, I think, "Cricket-Match-Special" (?).

 | | waustad: <fred>Don't feel too bad, I ignored mate in 1 yesterday. OK it was a 5 minute game after several beers, but these things happen. |
|
| Aug-17-12 | | I play the Fred: <waustad>, if only I'd had a lot to drink before that blunder. But! Happier news to report: I took both games from my opponent in the match against "MOONDUST COLLECTORS". In the four completed games, Team Chessgames leads 2.5-1.5. This is, of course, my subtle way of campaigning for MVP. :D |
|

| | technical draw: <This is, of course, my subtle way of campaigning for MVP.> There's an MVP award? I guess <rookie879> wins rookie of the year. I want the "best improved player" award. |
|
| Aug-17-12 | | I play the Fred: <td> I suppose <rookie879> would win it every year. |
|
| Aug-17-12 | | falso contacto: I secured a decent win earlier today.
I'm ready for a couple more 7d/m matches. |
|
Aug-17-12
| | WannaBe: <falso contacto> Okay, I'll see who else is avail. =) |
|
| Aug-17-12 | | I play the Fred: *raises hand* |
