I played him as well. Rather, he beat me rather quickly.

I'm sure cracking his knuckles to warm up before challenging you!

a reply to: SkepticOverlord

This is like mind reading the opponent

If a miracle happens and i win ill consider retiring while i'm up

Thanks all for the games has been a blast so far

a reply to: Indigent

It's a good game.

a reply to: SkepticOverlord

you post this and the next move i melted like butter

a reply to: Indigent

Yeah... you moved your King's pawn forward, and I flinched.

It evens out though, I just resigned another game because the stupid got ahold on me.

Phew, I finally won a game, cheers TNMockingbird, I'm liking having my old avatar back!

a reply to: grainofsand

It was good fun!

Shame really as I like your other avatar better, me thinks!

a reply to: TNMockingbird

Rematch same bet?
I'll love seeing you with the old British passport for 24 hours lol

a reply to: grainofsand

Well, I suppose you better send me the link

And, yes, I would love a rematch!

a reply to: TNMockingbird

Rematch request on its way but I don't remember actually betting the avatar on the last match so nah, gotta let it slide.
Same as if I didn't remember shaking hands with you, didn't happen!
Next match though that's the prize!

Hi Grainofsand. I have been playing on www.chesscube.com for more than 9 years. Its by far the best interface for playing chess online. Give it a try. I only play 1min time control but I don't recommend such fast games unless you are a well seasoned chess player.

Ah thanks for the shout but I've found quite a few ATS people at chess.com now so I've sort of moved into there comfortably.
1 minute move chess haha, I've been destroyed a few times so far, getting better though, every game is a lesson.

Every game needs the easy mode to start you on, so i made an account, Indigent1, if you want to play with someone with a level of minus 1 hit me on

Haha! Behave, I'm minus 1, you have been smashing me!
Thanks for the games though, I'm learning loads more and was almost confident at a point in our last match lol.
...and as you said, there is always tomorrow

If anyone else fancies a battle on the chess board then please do just search for ATSgrainofsand and challenge me.
Good handful of other ATS members there so far.

a reply to: grainofsand

I would like to add that if you just want to practice your attacks and sneaky moves on the chessboard, I am your gal!

As some members, who I have and am currently playing, can tell you I am the Queen of blunders!
LOL!

a reply to: TNMockingbird

Haha! Practice is exactly what I need!
I don't help myself either, playing after a few drinks when I should be getting ready for bed lol, you being hours earlier with the time zone advantage.

I'll chuckle later when you beat me (again) I'm ruined for sure!

a reply to: grainofsand

Well, as long as we can laugh about it...

it's all good! haha

a reply to: TNMockingbird

Chess.com is struggling to load for me at the moment, pity because I'd like to hurry up and get done over by you again, dust my sorry arse off and move on to my next win!
It is a good laugh though, Indigent is the destroyer though haha.

a reply to: grainofsand

Indigent is the destroyer though haha

Seriously i don't know what is going on, last time i play about 10 years ago i got rekt by everyone, except a lady that let me win all the time...

My paranoid self makes me think you people are letting me win to start playing with money soon... nigerian prince chess

a reply to: Indigent

Haha I'm enjoying playing you fella!
You are fast as, and lure me into fast thought moves, the mistakes seem to go into my memory quicker than studying the board for ages.
We've had almost all pieces stacked up in formation against each other and I've been thinking when it goes it's gonna be carnage haha!


Struggling to access the site tonight though, only internet place I'm struggling, but I shall challenge again soon.

*** And any ATS folk who haven't beaten me yet please do have a go if you like the game **
...before we talk money and my account in Nigeria lol

a reply to: grainofsand

SkepticOverlord wreck me 3 in a row... i could use a match or two with you now
