A few months back someone on the general forum was describing their skyrocketing career as an amateur chessmaster, so naturally I challenged him to a game. This game features two fair to middling players, one of whom was just trying to be obnoxious (we live in a fallen world and I couldn't help myself). I also note that I've been playing this game with an seriousness only since June of this year, so I can be forgiven for, among other things, butchering the Ruy Lopez. I post it to demonstrate the infamous TITB move (#26).
That's a good game. I don't see how having a rating of 1382 makes an "amateur chessmaster", even to an arrogant user like your opponent seemed to be, but the chessrating systems are faulty, so I don't know. What do you mean by TITB?- I'm not good with acronyms or texting or any of that, but clearly it meant a bad move of some sort. By the way, what were the time controls for this game?
