You're in this group because you're a fan of unorthodox openings. Well, per ideas from member Sirprim, we are going to start having an Unorthodox Opening of the Month.

    the elephant is a trap, so it is good against people that do not have a lot of book knowledge. i've tried it a number of times, so far no one has fell for it.
