Thanks~!

I'm back. Unfortunately I timed-out on one of my other games.


I offer apologies to my opponent for the abandonment as that was not my intention.

Vacation Time

Hello all readers~!

I need to take some time off and was wondering if there is a vacation mode or if I just disappear on people and let the timer run.

Thx.

If you set up a thematic using the "Opening Moves" option, the moves will be displayed in red below the details of the tournament. Oh .... OK .... Yes, I remember seeing this display in a thematic I recently joined, but somehow my opponents are playing different moves than what was displayed in the...

Claim Query

Apologies if the answer is obvious or I have overstepped site decorum with this post. My opponent has not made a move in almost a month in the following game: http://www.net-chess.com/viewgame.cgi?p1=g1104995859&r=301 We were moving about 3 moves per 2 days and now absolute stagnation. Do I simply n...

I have read his posts here. And I like it. Colourful people makes life more fun. Would be boring if everyone always walked the middle road. He has strong opinions on how things should be, he don't care if others have a more relaxed approach to the issues he writes about. I like it. Better to have i...

Where have you read that stupid rule? In a book. "14B5 REPEATED OFFERS Repeated draw offers may be construed as annoying the opponent, and penalties are possible at the discretion of the TD (20G). If the first offer is declined it is improper to offer another draw unless the opponent has since offe...

I thought you were only allowed to offer draw one time? If this is true, then Malakhov got what he had coming. A draw offer from player A that is rejected by player B cannot be re-offered by Player A until the opponent B first makes a counter draw offer that is rejected by Player A. So, in order fo...

Malakhov: You are using a 50 lb sledge hammer to drive finishing nails. All the FIDE related rules you stated just simply do not apply here, unless the PRIVATE owner/operator decides it to be the case. THAT is the point, sir, so it is time to stop acting like a petulant American teenager. Please fam...

Re: A WARNING?

Why SO WEAK punishment? Every chess player is already warned by the Chess Laws that he can not insult his opponents. You should not advice him he can not act as he acted. Look what the FIDE Laws say: Article 12: The conduct of the players 12.1 The players shall take no action that will bring the ga...
