I won a medal once, for chess.

― Cathy (Cathy), Thursday, 17 March 2005 21:16 (twenty-one years ago)

Is there any chance of a similar outbreak of ILX Scrabble matches? www.isc.ro

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Thursday, 17 March 2005 21:21 (twenty-one years ago)

im up for that
i dont know whether im worse at scrabble, or chess.

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 17 March 2005 21:46 (twenty-one years ago)

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 17 March 2005 21:47 (twenty-one years ago)

OK, it's on then.

Anyone seeking to play me at Scrabble, the handle is Journalis.

oh hello

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 17 March 2005 21:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Whenever I make a move that I think is at all clever (usually because I decided not to make some dumb move) then it takes FOREVER before you lot respond to it.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 17 March 2005 22:27 (twenty-one years ago)

I am enjoying playing against you, ambrose.

haha cozen nice one mate!

huh?

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 17 March 2005 23:10 (twenty-one years ago)

i once got two queens ahead of my opponent - ie i had three and he had one, other pieces more or less equal

i then proceeded to lose all three queens AND the game

argh i get the feeling i am being drawn to the edge of the abyss, a cavalry charge bouyed by earlu success and seemingly unhindered forays into enemy territory, only for annihilation to ensue

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 17 March 2005 23:42 (twenty-one years ago)

give you something else to check, along with e-mails.
-- cozen (skiplevel...), March 17th, 2005. (Cozen)

it was funny!

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:08 (twenty-one years ago)

I can't believe Cathy just trash-talked me! I didn't even realize it was an option! ;-)

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:13 (twenty-one years ago)

(Within the game, that is.)

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:13 (twenty-one years ago)

you haven't been sledging? it's half the fun.

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:14 (twenty-one years ago)

I have to use intimidation tactics, to compensate for never thinking more than half a move ahead.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:19 (twenty-one years ago)

cathy's good at this game

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:35 (twenty-one years ago)

I am Vzzzbx

― Autumn Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:35 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm getting worse by the second.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:39 (twenty-one years ago)

god ken is pasting me. im in check within about 3 moves or soemthing

― ambrose (ambrose), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:40 (twenty-one years ago)

that was mercifully short.

― ambrose (ambrose), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:47 (twenty-one years ago)

I am not going to bed until I win.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 18 March 2005 00:54 (twenty-one years ago)

I am also bad at chess.

― Autumn Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:01 (twenty-one years ago)

chess is a really fun game.

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:03 (twenty-one years ago)

your move cozen!

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:05 (twenty-one years ago)

cathy kidnapped my horsey! :(

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:11 (twenty-one years ago)

Not kidnapped, ken, KILLED.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:12 (twenty-one years ago)

!!!!

this is war!!

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:14 (twenty-one years ago)

(i'm slow like that!)

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:14 (twenty-one years ago)

this is too SLOW

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:25 (twenty-one years ago)

I think that is chess' biggest problem. It takes AGES.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:25 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah.. i mean it can potentially 3 days per move on this thing

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:31 (twenty-one years ago)

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Who's noonyontour?

― Autumn Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:36 (twenty-one years ago)

i think ive exhausted all my strategic nous thinking that i was totally gonna bomb cozen.

― ambrose (ambrose), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:38 (twenty-one years ago)

i avenged my horsey's tragic death

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:49 (twenty-one years ago)

You know when you do a move, and the very second you click 'Move' you go "oh shit that was a fucking stupid move"?

― Autumn Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:51 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah i know it, cos it happens every time i click "move"

― ambrose (ambrose), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:52 (twenty-one years ago)

blimey i think i see what you mean.

― ambrose (ambrose), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:54 (twenty-one years ago)

you seem to be doing ok to me, ambrose.

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Sorry I had to leave work, Cathy! I'm checking in now but I won't really be back on for a few hours...

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 18 March 2005 01:58 (twenty-one years ago)

Quit alright. I should really go to bed. Ken has me in my death throes...

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 18 March 2005 02:03 (twenty-one years ago)

Correction: dead throes.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 18 March 2005 02:03 (twenty-one years ago)

That was a close game! Cathy has been the first person so far to make me feel scared about making the wrong move.

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 02:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Whee! I'll be back tomorrow, with a vengeance. Goodnight.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 18 March 2005 02:05 (twenty-one years ago)

night! i should go to bed too. and dream of horses.

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 18 March 2005 02:07 (twenty-one years ago)

― ambrose (ambrose), Friday, 18 March 2005 02:12 (twenty-one years ago)

you are being a little bitch!

: )

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 18 March 2005 02:16 (twenty-one years ago)

are you referring to my willingness to challenge, or the specifics of our game?
im anyones after a mint tea

― ambrose (ambrose), Friday, 18 March 2005 02:18 (twenty-one years ago)

haha I ws referring to my own inability to make any headway and your ability to match anything and everything tht I try and then some.

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 18 March 2005 02:21 (twenty-one years ago)

ha! i had a plan 10 moves ago, but you seem unwilling to keep all your pieces as they were for the duration fo my masterplann, and kept on moving them out of the way :(
