  DaltriDiluvi: There must be an error in the current game score - maybe it becomes sensible if you add the moves <3.d4 exd4>?

  Stonehenge: I did, but then it still didn't make any sense.

  Retireborn: 3.Nd4, you say. I must try this daring novelty on my next opponent.
Mar-25-23  stone free or die: Ha... I just copied it in and saw it reached a finished position (i.e. was playable).

I guess you can pick your poison (which kind of unplayable do you prefer?)

Mar-25-23  stone free or die: It gets even better... 15.Qc4 is a doozy.

The score is ridiculous, but that's what TWIC has, and it's probably the only source at this point (unless either player someday weighs in).

  perfidious: <Retireborn>, your venturesome spirit is admirable.
Mar-26-23  stone free or die: I'll point out that, to understand the exchange between <DaltriDiluvi> and <Stonehenge> you need the score I posted as that's what they're trying to fix, and not the pretty much useless fragment <CG> now has.

I knew it should be helpful even if I glossed over it, but if <Stone> tried to fix it and couldn't, well, you know it's going to be next to impossible.
