Feb-05-06  RonB52734: Do you object to my posting the move now?
Feb-05-06  sitzkrieg: Me 2. I think we all do. But if we lose, lets blame him;)
Feb-05-06  RonB52734: Yeah, I worry about him the more I think about it. You'd think if he was on campus, a moment of Internet access here and there wouldn't be a problem.
Feb-05-06  sitzkrieg: Maybe the sorority girls after all. I d "dump" you guys without thinking too and forget ur existence..:)
Feb-05-06  sitzkrieg: When does ur game start?
Feb-05-06  RonB52734: 2 hours and 20 minutes from now: 6:25 p.m. EST

  WannaBe: I've entered the lottery for next year (in miami for XLI) Super Bowl Tickets... =)

I hope I win.

Feb-05-06  RonB52734: I know I'm antsy, but I would like to post this move. <WannaBe> earlier said "don't post anything yet." Do you still want to wait, <WannaBe>?

  WannaBe: Oh, sorry, that post was meant for <sitzkrieg>... =)

Go Steelers, (even though I've got no bets on the game.) Rooting for <RonB> and <me to play>!!

Pass me the beer and nachos.

Feb-05-06  RonB52734: Thanks, <WannaBe>!!
Feb-05-06  RolandTesh: <RonB>

I have to take the Seahawks, having lived in Seattle seven years -- plus, to punish traitors who were born in the Seattle environs but root for Pissburgh.

Wanna make a bet? I'll even take even points. Loser has to change their avatar.

Feb-05-06  NakoSonorense: Hello, teammates! I'm back. Don’t know if it’s too late, though! =S

I’ve read a few pages of this forum, but I’m still trying to catch up with the situation. I’ve been out for a week due to some personal and school-related issues [I'll gladly give details if anybody's interested, although I doubt it, :).] I'm all right, only very busy. Thanks for the concern.

About the game, I see that the knightmares want a draw, huh! It looks fine to me, as long as you all agree. The position seems neutral, and now that we’ve lost our only advantage I don’t see how to make any progress.

So, I vote for a draw.

Thanks again for waiting and for not replacing me with some other chess maniac. (not sure if there are any of those around here, though =p)

Feb-05-06  RonB52734: Welcome back, <Nako Sonorense>!! Glad to see you're ok. I think most of the votes you missed were pretty much 4-0. We're momentarily up a piece; we'll see if they have found anything better than repetition. It looks like anything other than repetition may let us hold the piece, or at least part of it.
Feb-05-06  RonB52734: Sorry, <Roland Tesh>, I didn't see your post until after kickoff, and I figure at that point it's too late to bet. May the best team win!
Feb-05-06  RonB52734: By the way, <Nako>, you have to go back and read the posts about us coming to look for you ;)

  WannaBe: Nako, glad to know you're OK.
Feb-05-06  RonB52734: Steelers win! Steelers win!!
Feb-05-06  Robin01: Good for the Steelers.
Feb-05-06  RonB52734: We're reasonably happy here in Pittsburgh. :)

  WannaBe: No one's rioting yet? =)
Feb-05-06  RonB52734: No, so far it just looks like a party.
Feb-06-06  Robin01: My guess is that they are looking for a move so they will not have to repeat the position. If they wanted a draw, I think they would have agreed already.
Feb-06-06  sitzkrieg: Well we can start (re) analyzing the lines with Bd4 and Rf5, they still present some problems.
Feb-06-06  Robin01: I have been analyzing the Bd4 line. I'll look at the Rf5 line later.
Feb-06-06  sitzkrieg: Bd4 seemed the most logical to me.
