    Here's a game I played recently. We're relatively low-rated but not clueless. There are surely tons of mistakes, but it was a fun game that illustrates the point that the loser is just the one who made the last mistake.

    woohoo, it was a fun game with tons of mistakes :). I will comment just a few moves...

    2. e5?? Why waste a tempo?

    3... f6? Obviously c5 is a better choice. Why "go after center" if you haven't developed your pieces.

    By move 11 black have completely equalized. Though i don't like Rae8, i would have played Rac8 so after cd you have Bc5.

    Move 18 - White is lost, hopeless.

    23. Ng4?? Just play Ba5, exchange pieces. Why do you want to complecate the position being a piece up

    29. Black is lost.

    30... Ke6??? Why not Q:d5

    Giving 2. e5 two ?? is a bit over the top, it's the Steinitz Attack which is quite playable.

    I agree. question marks meant to say "Why"
