Why don't you just start your own thread on the subject? Since you've blocked all the members of your vast network of enemies, none of the naughty people can post to it.

Ya' know it's bad when 'fan is calling you out for using words incorrectly.
My favorite one in this vein was a couple of years ago when the Dodgers were playing in the NLDS. The crappy Dodgers announcer, so you know I'm not talking about Vin here, said, "Manny is, literally, carrying the team on his back."
Ha!
No kidding, at what point did the word "literally" become co-opted to mean "figuratively to the extreme"?
kooltigger, it's fun when King makes that bad move, then Bg5, but less when it moves to e8...:)
try 3. Bc4 as well.
Personal grudges sure are attractive.
The real behavior that should get people banned is the use of chess engines in-game.
True but then they just set-up a new account.
They need IP tracing to disallow someone to hold alt accts.

Proof of what a POS you are, unbelievable that you are actually proud of this -- it's behavior that should get you banned:
One answer for all who dare naysay your gibberish. You should be banned for being a gasbag, Hindenburg!
And actually the position--that you know nothing about--was totally lost. "POS" indeed!
A group of highly intellgent chess thinkers "using my Rubka" or" computer c. game".Hey,u think maybe younger players follow your lead ? U probably believe memorizing a computer line from start to mate is playing chess....

Refresh my memory , I've forgotten!
so, did you guys decided if sac'n' a knight on f7 is ok?
The Cochrane Gambit is extremely playable. It centralizes the King and allows Bc4+ with tempo. There are sevreal high level games in the line as well.
I played the Italian Variation with the early Bc4 move and from there, you can transpose into sevreal different lines as well such as the Scotch, Italina Four Knights, as well as some interesting lines that few would play.
Once of the earlier posts has Bc4 being met with d6, essentially resmbling a Philidor so White can pick an opening he is familiar with if he does like to play in the Petroff.

I lost to Expertise1987 but then again he's rated 300 points higher. Things went south for me around 13...Be6 -- until then I played many of the standard plans against the Cochrane Gambit (...g6, also ...c5 and in response to dxc5 ...Nc6) and seemed to be holding my own. He thinks I resigned prematurely, that I should have played 28...g5, I remember considering 28. Rf1 for him when 28...g5? would have run into 29. f5, so in that case I intended 28...Rf5 instead.
Has this changed your mind about Cochrane Gambit then?
C42: Russian Game: Cochrane Gambit

Not really; for instance according to my engine there was the much stronger 8...Be6 in response for Black, keeping a substantial edge. All that happened is I got beat by a significantly stronger opponent -- that extra strength was enough apparently for him to give me odds.
But is that a valid excuse (rating) when your doppelganger achieved this?:
Highest:2415 (12/15/10)Lowest:1513 (12/22/09)Avg. Opp.:1960 (3 months)Best Win:2562 (billwall)

It was about chess but apparently a number of us (not just me) insulted paw widdle DrSpudnik's bewuhved Fwench Defense and especially his illogical view that the symettrical Exchange variation somehow conferred an advantage on the side down a tempo. Then I had the audacity to mention an actual authority as opposed to just us amateur and this sent the Spudnik into orbit. I challenged him to a game where he could defend his French Defense but he has all sorts of excuses and seemingly would prefer to troll and resign vote chess games without consulting his teammates.
Better get your facts straight jempty, a) he has only one excuse and that was: "I decline all challenges from forum trolls. As I mentioned in the note when I declined."
b) he voted to resign in a lost game, nothing wrong with that.
Is this a thread hijack?
