Envented a new opening-how do I get credit 4 it?

Sort:
ponz111

I call it the 1/2 ponziani scheme.  1. e4  e5  2. c3!  Going after the center right away! Here is my analysis:

needs more a&h pawn action.

and 1. e4  e5  2. c3  Qh4!  3.f3 defending the e pawn does not seem to work very well!  Frown  I think you may have ruined my day  unless someone can come up with a good response to 2. ...Qh4!

Why worry about 2...Qh4, when nobody has found a decent reply to 2...Nf6?

...Qh4 is not "The critical reply."

This opening already exists.

1. e4 e5 2. c3 Qh4 3. d3

I could play d4 in the middle game. d3 will do for now.

I agree, because Qh4 is not necessarily the best square for the queen either.

Which is why 2...Nf6 makes this opening look silly. It forces 3. d3, with black playing a useful developing move, instead of Qh4

ask google!
