Who is Elubas?


Well it is said that he comes from a far land. None have been there and came back alive. It is not on any map we know. It is said to have the treasures of great pirates. The sun only shines there for only 4 hrs out of the day. The vultures are fat as it has been said.........

His real name if spoken in his tongue is ....... forbidden. He started playing chess to forget about his dark past. If asked about this he will deny it.  Sabule is said to be the English version of it which means one who engages others tenaciously. Sabule was never put in the dictionary for fear that ...... think i have already said too much about his origin.

You just promote to queen and mate. Then say: L2resign and play a new opponent.

Tell your opponent about the story of the Red Pill and  Blue Pill?

Now you have a choice between to pills to take here. Now take your time and think this through. It should be obvios what the Red Pill is... as it will make me very happy and represents that you will be resigning. The other choice which is the Blue Pill, not so good my friend. This Pill represents that you wish to make very sad during this very friendly game. Now when you take the Blue pill i will not take my White Pill which keeps me very calm. See by picking the Blue Pill means that you wish not to resign and did not consider the results of your decision. When i do not take my White Pill at its  appointed time I tend ....... well lets just see ?

One guy sat down with a guy that just got out and did 10 big ones. When the guy did not resign to him he thought he was calling him stupid and can not see mate in 5 moves. The ex-con then asked him are you ok. The guy replied yeah why you say that.  One thing lead to another and the ex is currently doing time over a chess game. An his opponent would have just been better resigning and 10 ft under.

OK, here is a correspondence battle from long ago. Black made a move and White resigned... One move puzzle...

[for those interested note the puzzle on my aviatar which is a current game and mate in 2]

hmmm all GMs resign when they are in bad positions..... these people are just people who think they are not beaten until they are beaten, i like underpromoting to a rook--- (little story) i versed a 1200 (i am 1440) and i had a pawn left, i underpromoted to a rook- after a few moves i wanted to get myself in a good position- he laughed in chat saying that he knew that i could not mate with a rook- i laughed back and mated him

all GMs resign??

Why not quit whining and just mate the guy?

I agreed. Is this thread "naming and shaming" or what ?

Elubas is some one who got upset when I posted a puzzle with an under promotion.

Also  when I give an example of a very nice resignation.
