Jan-08-19 Domdaniel chessforum    Domdaniel: Blank Reg: "They said there was no future - well, this is it."      Jan-06-19 Kibitzer's Café    Domdaniel: Haaarry Neeeeds a Brutish Empire... https://youtu.be/ZioiHctAnac      Jan-06-19 G McCarthy vs M Kennefick, 1977    Domdaniel: Maurice Kennefick died over the new year, 2018-2019. RIP. It was many years since I spoke to him. He gave up chess, I reckon, towards the end of the 80s, though even after that he was sometimes lured out for club games. I still regard this game, even after so many years, as the ...      Jan-06-19 Maurice Kennefick    Domdaniel: Kennefick died over the 2018-19 New Year. Formerly one of the strongest players in Ireland, he was the first winner of the Mulcahy tournament, held in honour of E.N. Mulcahy, a former Irish champion who died in a plane crash. I played Kennefick just once, and had a freakish win, ...      Jan-06-19 Anand vs J Fedorowicz, 1990    Domdaniel: <NBZ> -- Thanks, NBZ. Enjoy your chortle. Apropos nothing in particular, did you know that the word 'chortle' was coined by Lewis Carroll, author of 'Alice in Wonderland'? I once edited a magazine called Alice, so I can claim a connection. 'Chortle' requires the jamming ...      Jan-06-19 chessgames.com chessforum    Domdaniel: <al wazir> - It's not easy to go back through past Holiday Present Hunts and discover useful information. Very few people have played regularly over the years -- even the players who are acknowledged as best, <SwitchingQuylthulg> and <MostlyAverageJoe> have now ...      Jan-05-19 Wesley So    Domdaniel: Wesley is a man of his word. Once again, I am impressed by his willingness to stick to commitments.      Jan-04-19 G Neave vs B Sadiku, 2013    Domdaniel: Moral: if you haven't encountered it before, take it seriously. Remember Miles beating Karpov with 1...a6 at Skara. Many so-called 'irregular' openings are quite playable.      Dec-30-18 Robert Enders vs S H Langer, 1968   Domdaniel: <HMM> - Heh, well, yes. I also remembered that Chuck Berry had a hit with 'My Ding-a-ling' in the 1970s. I'm not sure which is saddest -- that the author of Johnny B. Goode and Memphis Tennessee and Teenage Wedding - among other short masterpieces - should sink to such ...      Dec-30-18 T Gelashvili vs T Khmiadashvili, 2001    Domdaniel: This is the game I mean: Bogoljubov vs Alekhine, 1922

Frogspawn: Levity's Rainbow

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 439 OF 963 ·  Later Kibitzing> Nov-02-08    Domdaniel: *Rooks* [for JFQ] Will you stay in our chessy story The middlegame could get quite gory When we sac ourselves for you You'll mate your foe Ten zillion times With a couple of rooks Providing rhymes ... And keep that smile When playing bullies and cads Combinations and chemistry May be passing fads But we believe in you ... [St Dom's Remix version] Nov-02-08    Open Defence: Korchnoi is still the undisputed Vice-Champ of all time Nov-02-08    Domdaniel: <Deffi> I'm still chuckling at the "not solid enough to hold" line. Anymore of this and I may accidentally *laugh audibly* and have to ignore myself. Nov-02-08    Open Defence: heh I do have my moments, even in Frogspawn Nov-02-08    Boomie: <Domdaniel: *Rooks*> Heh. I thought about "rooks" after posting the "kooks" version. Rooks and kooks are both fitting descriptions of the beasties. We'll get there by rook or by kook. Nov-02-08    Woody Wood Pusher: < Open Defence: Korchnoi is still the undisputed Vice-Champ of all time> Isn't he also world senior champ? Nov-03-08    jessicafischerqueen: Yes, he is, but <Washoe> is currently <world senior chimp>. http://www.pri.kyoto-u.ac.jp/ai/new... Nov-03-08    Woody Wood Pusher: hehe, does he play e4 or d4? Nov-03-08    Boomie: <Woody Wood Pusher: hehe, does he play e4 or d4?> Roscoe plays the English like all cheeky monkeys. Nov-03-08    Woody Wood Pusher: Oh yes, I forgot he surprised his latest opponent with a repertoire change. Nov-03-08    Domdaniel: <a repertoire change.>? A *complete* repertoire change? *Transchesstites*. Nov-03-08    Woody Wood Pusher: I wouldn't really call it a *complete* repertoire change, after-all he has started games that way before in his career, just none too many! Now 1.g5, there is a complete change. Do *transchessvites* tuck it in or cut it off, I can't remember? Nov-03-08    mckmac: < Do *transchessvites* tuck it in or cut it off, I can't remember? > You probably weren't interested in the first place < Woody > Nov-03-08    Woody Wood Pusher: <mcmak> You'd be surprised what half a bottle of JD can do to a guy, especially if he is already alone, and hurting inside. Nov-03-08    Domdaniel: Oh gawd it's the <Frogspawn Male Vulnerability Group Meeting>. Quickly, girls, do something! A Caro-Kann, maybe? Those undertones of "I care" and "you can" -- empathy and empowerment via 1...c6. Nov-03-08    Open Defence: so 1...c5 means they are trying to compensate for other smaller areas ? Nov-03-08    WBP: <Deffi> <Dom> <so 1...c5 means they are trying to compensate for other smaller areas ?> Yeah. I think it's called <c-ness envy> Nov-03-08    jessicafischerqueen: I don't know if this is on-topic, since I couldn't find a player in the database named "oink." Although I *did* find <quack, maa, moo, buzz, etc.> Here is a piglet playing chess: http://kr.youtube.com/watch?v=DcjRc... Nov-03-08    Eyal: <The credit crunch has hit the Chess World. Queens are now worth 7 points, Rooks 2.5 points, Knights & Bishops are worth 1 point and pawns are totally worthless. The Four Knights is now to be called the 2.75 Knights. All squares are weak, and castled positions are no longer safe> http://www.chessedinburgh.co.uk/cha... Also features some nasty stuff about Ray ("it's gotten to the point that you feel left out if he hasn't swiped some of your material over the years") Keene, including a report of some of the late developments on his CG.com page... Nov-03-08    jessicafischerqueen: Heh=- <The Penguin>, and one of the few articles I've seen mentioning our esteemed administrators. Very funny article <Eyal> posted. Not just for <Batman> fans! Nov-04-08    Woody Wood Pusher: <A Caro-Kann, maybe? Those undertones of "I care" and "you can" -- empathy and empowerment via 1...c6.> hahaaha, cynical, but I like it! hahaha Nov-04-08    mack: <some nasty stuff about Ray> Francis Wheen's handiwork, for what it's worth. Nov-04-08    jessicafischerqueen: <mack> What ho! I'm sure <The Penguin> can take care of himself. He is well known for his ascerbic, "in yo face" posting and writing style, which I happen to enjoy quite a lot. Who cares if he lifted a few paragraphs? I stole every single word I ever posted in here from <The Benny Hill Show>. You certainly won't hear me whining about it if I"m accused of plaigiarizing. Nov-04-08    Domdaniel: No, chaps and chapesses, it simply won't do. We should hasten to the defence of Mondo, and put the balding author of 'How Mumbo-Jumbo Conquered the World' back in his box (lined with old issues of Private Eye, in case of embarrassing leaks). On this historic day for ... for ... for <that other thing>, let's make Gotham City safe for penguins. No more wheenery from Frankie Stoplight, eh? Beam RayMondo up. Make it sew.
