Shouldn't Nh3 be the Ammonia attack?
We aren't really looking for practicality are we?
And....... I'd really suggest everyone to go look up in youtube Dirty Chess Tricks Grob Attack by GJ_Chess. He also has a video on the Owen's Defense and how to refute it.......
The Polish is actually playable. I want everyone to realize this.
Everything is playable. The question is if it is good enough. Personally I think that Grob is better than Polish. But since it's for Unsound openings, then why should we play things like Polish and Owen's and Grob, which are only positionally unsound? Let's play things which are truly unsound! Like Halloween Gambit. Blackmar Gambit. Etc Etc.

agreed
Naifmando56 I like what you said there, and your reasoning is very convincing. However, my problem is with the fact that very few people are voting for unsound moves. Our group is meant to challenge theory and confuse our opponents. Why should we abandon our group name when we could just let ourselves be overwhelmed with loads of memorized lines?
Very few people are voting for it right? Well, in other groups we started games from a preset position so you were forced to play it whether you like it or not. Now I don't know anything about it, but I think we should give the Blackmar gambit a try!
I get it. People are voting for things like Open Sicilian and standard d5 setup against colle system. Well, That's not good at all. We do need to get wacky to retain our identity. How about posting comments in BIG letters? Just to make sure everyone is aware?
True.
I think that starting a game with a set position is a great idea. I don't know why I didn't think of that. We will play the Blackmar-Deimer Gambit and I may give you a temporary admin position. If you want it, of course.
Nah I don't want to be an admin. I don't get to be online that often. I want to keep supporting the groups I am in, that's all. And thanks for the offer!
It is fun. Not very practical though.
