What I like about jealousy is that it shows what a person really is like. 

Is dat sum projection I smell?

Why yes, I do believe it is.

Interesting how your comments get smaller and smaller as you have no arguments anymore. You shot your anger fire, now you are out of munition. Maybe look for another thread with a weaker OP that you can try to annoy. Also you know I meant you with the jealousy. You are 1800 which is the only reason you even posted in this thread. Have a bad day. What am I talking about, have a good day. Maybe that will make you change haha.

2200 is a national master. I included 2300 for FIDE master. That's why I wrote 2200-2300.

Simplify for lower rated players? Sure, but don't lie.

This addresses the other points, but they're petty points in any case. I got a laugh out of the jealousy thing, so I posted that... just so you know, you're not the first new account with a high blitz rating and no losses... if you're still playing games and not banned in a few weeks I'll give you credit. Nothing personal, that's just a pattern certain types of people have created.

I dont lie. Just because you are pissed you dont need to put everything down. Why would you laugh at your own jealousy? I dont get it. Whats very typical about jealous people is that they are lazy in certain ways. You for example accuse me of cheating without looking at single game I played. Why is that? Because it is easy to say and also  you dont want your assumption to be wrong. I mean what if you checked my games and saw that there was nothing engine like about them at all? Your whole idea about me would collaps and your ego would get hurt. So better never check my games brah but please accuse me again, I love it!

....If you like you could write your favorite books that helped you most, I will add them too.

my 1st book. why I got it:

- skinny book! i will not be reading a dictionary!

- content covers many areas (from I what i saw on the content pageWink)

- written by an Eastern European (i think they write better, don't they? and judging from the amazon.com reviews....love and peace to all other nationalitiesCool)

- hated chapter 1, liked chapters 2, 3, 4 and 5 - i am still reading it, and it's difficult, but detailed - have to use a chessboard!  

my 2nd book. why I got it?

- it was a buy one, and get the second book for 1/2 price offer!

- written not by one, but by two Eastern Europeans! double the goodness, right?

- it made TT (chess.com) look like the "Where's Waldo" series!? .....love and peace to the management team of TTCool

- is worth it? don't know, still on page 2 since August 11thLaughing

Again, nothing personal. And you're right, it is lazy not to check your games (like you said, I didn't look at them).

Also I never accused you... I just said what it looks like. It's not your fault that sometimes cheaters do these things and make honest players look bad.

Thanks for the chess topic by the way, it's nice to have topics like these (sometimes the forums have a lot of non chess stuff).

Wow damn you got me Bobby. I just wanted to seek some attention in a inconspicuous way Laughing.

IamNoMaster

let me think of a blindfold exercise the first who solves it gets a croissant.

IamNoMaster

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Moves:

1.d4 d5 2.c4 Nf6 3.cxd5 Nxd5 4.Nf3 e6 5.e4 Nf6 6.Nc3 Be7 7.Bd3 0-0 8.h4 b6 9.e5 Nd5 10.Bxh7 Kxh7 11.Ng5+ Kg6 12.Qd3+ f5 13.Exf6 Kxf6 14.Ne4+ Kg6 15.h5+ Kh6....

White to move mates in 2!

Who can play through this whole line in his head and find the solution has a bright future chesswise.

IamNoMaster

I'm trying... I see wins so far but not a mate in 2 because its not 100% clear. I'll let you know when I solve it

IamNoMaster

wow you got it mate! that was actually a tough one, I hope you didnt cheat but of course I trust your honesty Cool

IamNoMaster

next lesson coming out tomorrow, check it out.

LogoCzar

Okay I have solved it...

Nf7+ Kh7 Nf6 double check and mate.

It was getting confusing when I was looking at the moves and then closing my eyes but when I closed my eyes and more or less remembered the moves I saw the idea (double check with both knights at the end) and I checked it and it worked 

(I think - still did not get a board or diagram out - except the diagram your provided)

LogoCzar

Hey I didn't see Bobbys answer when I did. I was just trying then typed the solution and then made the comment but then it turned out he commented and beat me to it...

LogoCzar

I want another blindfold excersize!

When you didn't say which knight to e4, I imagined a lot of wrong things... like the king walking into h6 while it was guarded, and the king's knight being on e4 and g5 at the same time or something... with no knight on e4, I couldn't figure out why Nf7 wasn't mate in 1... going over it carefully I eventually figured it out... but I did screw it up pretty bad. Fun exercise.
