Yes, this should be called the "Tugwash Opening", or the "Captain's Opening".
4.H(5,-3)...Q(4,28)

I believe this opening was originally pioneered by Naviary, and he named it “the naviary attack.”
But it was on move 1 then
I usually play it move 4 before my hawk blocks the queen's path. My next move is highly predictable!
Ah
nav played it move 1
5... H(4,9)
Did you have an internal alarm go off when I made my move just to come online to play that super fast?
H (-1, -3)
lol something like that. I fell asleep and missed dinner, so woke up hungry. Had a snack a cuppa and saw you had moved.
Anyway I'll WFB here, this is the point where I need to actually make a board haha.

Oh - you have a good memory.

Marks, no hawk can move there. Can you double check your coordinates? (I never make assumptions when I see a typo).
This is where we are (White to move):
5.Q(4,-7)...H(4,9)
Btw, if either of you would like a zoom-in view let me know. I can crop out distant pieces, adding only a note what square(s) they're on. (That's what I normally do when pieces move really far).
That board is fine for me thanks.
Yeah don't worry, if you make a "legal" typo that turns out to be a blunder I'll let you retake your move! So long as it's clear what your intention was, anyway.
Fair enough. I only said that to give you an idea of my thought process in the opening, rather than to criticise.
