Hi again:
I will accept your resignation, but I'd like to tell you something about the openning.
The opening was the grob. It was invented by a Swiss Master named Henri Grob, 1904-1974.
Usually it is played with the white pieces but it seems to work with the black.
By moving the pawn to g4 it will attacks the opponents Knight when moved to Kf6. The pawn is pushed to G5. It gains some space on the king's side.
When playing as black it attacks the other knight when moved it is moved to Kf3, the pawn is pushed to g4.
Both of those pawn are always supported by the H pawn.
I'd like to show you somethings you missed and something I missed in that game? And maybe some suggestion that you might be able to use.
I had great deal of fun playing this game. This was the fifth game I have played on Chess.com. Thanks for posting the reques for the blindfold game. I think you have made history by doing that.
Congratulations.

Sorry I looked it up in the book "The Killer Grob" I have by Bassman and it was Henri Grob a Swiss Master that invented it.
It is called "the Grob" opening. I don't know how I got to thinking backwards. Sorry again.

HELLO 1PLUS1
IT took me quite a while but finally I finally came up with variations of the
finish. Instead of retreating your G2 Bishop. You could have taken the knight on H6 like in the demo I made.
Both are longer than I wanted. Here they are you can look at them
if you want to.
I hope there weren't any errors.
The knight you moved on, A4, I never saw that I could take it until the next move. Idecided that it wasn't effecting the game so I ignored it.
I focused on the F pawn and pushed it. The king side looked like a pawn storm.
I wanted to join my rook together on the F file but I didn't get to that point.
Any way Thanks for the game.
I now have college homework to focus on.

bye
I have a lot of respect for you and impressed that you are doing this. Now when you make a mistake use that as a learning because the next time you play, you will improve. Mistakes are great learning tools.
Very true. A quote that seems very apposite to the chess life:
"The road to wisdom? - Well, it's plain
and simple to express:
Err
and err
and err again
but less
and less
and less."
