Nov-21-06  technical draw: White just thought he was going to Waltz to a victory.
Nov-30-06  Rocafella: <The17thPawn> None of the players are 2200 strength or over at the time of this game
Dec-07-06  The17thPawn: <Rocafella> Thanks for the clarification. I was just going by the 2242 listed for Mr. Funk on this site, but have no idea when that rating was acheived.
Dec-17-06  Rocafella: <The17thPawn> Glad to be of service :)

  offramp: My favourite Funkadelic song is <The Electric Spanking of War Babies>.
May-05-18  Caissas Clown: He was better in Rich Man , Poor Man.
May-05-18  goodevans: <Joshua01: 28. Rxg6 seems better than Nxd6>

Good spot. What's more 29.Rxg6 is even stronger a move later and would have won the game for white.

May-05-18  morfishine: Pathetic game

The contest for the most blunders was hotly waged by both sides

Peter, Paul not so Merry

Did you go past the introduction? It gets better!

May-05-18  morfishine: <offramp> I will take your word on that, and as a gentleman, I will provide you with a daily progress report (as I work my way through the morass)
May-05-18  Saniyat24: Peter Strauss under stress took too long to long castle...! :D
