Message:
Julia has asked not to be credited with the forfeit win against astinkyfart (thanks, Julia, your good sportsmanship (or is it sportswomanship??) is commendable). So the final score of the match is GBH 6.5 - gothicgirl 4.5.
We are all looking forward to the rematch starting approximately August 15. Sign up now by messaging me. I already have one signed up - panga74. Thanks.

[ report this post ] | A new record for muppy
Message:
You may recall that back in thread #102, we had a discussion about the longest games (in terms of number of moves) played by a Bounty Hunter. muppyman has just concluded a game against the higher rated chessaholic in 99 moves, a new record for a team game. The game can be found by going to the past games link on muppyman's homepage. It is a very interesting game and I invite you all to review the game. muppyman developed a strong attack early, but chessaholic defended well and when the smoke cleared, muppyman was down a pawn. But he stayed with it and fought back. When chessaholic made an inferior 29th move, muppyman was there to pounce on the opportunity. Playing a long, tense endgame, muppyman patiently built upon his slight advantage and built it into a won position.
Congratulations to muppyman on a game well played.

I'm happy to be a member of the team! I've been playing on Gameknot for a couple years and thought it was time to give team play a try. I'm an attorney in Iowa and I've been playing serious chess since 1991. I haven't played much OTB in the last few years due to scheduling conflicts, so I've found Gameknot to be a welcome answer to my chess needs. I think my Gameknot rating is a little inflated at the moment because I've pounding on lower-rated players in league play for the last few months. I'm looking forward to tougher competition and bringing some glory to the team.

nemmers used to belong to my local chess club. We were pretty equal when he started out, but he put in the time studying and playing and got a lot stronger than me at OTB play. His Gameknot rating looks low to me (I think he was rated in the 1600s USCF when he moved). Assuming he didn't blunder badly, I suspect you notched a pretty impressive win. Congrats!
