Tournament of LEP'ers Rd. 2 Ugly Loss!

Maybe I should should follow the rule of thumb concerning time zone changes. One day per hour of time difference to get yourself back on own time. Let's see, that means I should have waited until Monday to play this game. Having a miserable cold probably didn't help matters either, but enough with the excuses. I got totally outplayed and payed dearly for some passive moves. It's games like this that make me want to chuck the English and play something else. I'm just too damn lazy to learn something else.


Htas off to l3rucewayne for a well played game. Pay back will come next time!!

I have my work cut out for me in round three as I'm facing Wahrheit, one of the 2-0 scores. It didn't take long l3rucewayne to report the result. It was up before I finished my analysis. This isn't really deep. Perhaps he'll add more comments to his blog if he posts the game.

l3ruce asked whether he should bother posting a comment that he won (since I was observing the game). I told him that it was unnecessary, but he could use the opportunity to gloat.

In your analysis, you mention what I was thinking: "Some of those moves seem awfully passive."

In any case, I hope you feel better soon, and perform better against Wahrheit.

Sorry to hear you're not feeling well--just to double check are we still on for tomorrow in the 1:00 to 1:10 PST time frame (better allow me 10 minutes slack because the schedule is based on getting my son down for a nap...)

donnie: I had no idea you were watching the game. Nothing wrong with him gloating on the trash talk thread. What's the point in having a trash talk thread if one can't gloat or talk trash?

wahr: Yes we're still on for that time. I won't start your clock at 1:05 if you're not there.

I try not to gloat ever sense a time when on ICC I got taken to task for accidentally doing so after a tournament game. I could try and post up the game with my thoughts if time permits. Where were the results posted? I thought I had waited till after it was already known to say anything.

"accidentally"*

Time permitted.

Bruce: Since our game was the last one from round two it was okay to spill the beans. Also we had an audience.
