    Hi Leo, I resigned in our match just to save time as you completely had me after one more move. Cheers for the game.

    Bring it on - the last week's events have left me feeling very aggressive :) (it shows in my recent crap chess performances)

    Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but I think the opening I just used against Yorkie is the one I should have used against Leo, and vice versa.

    NNW - I am getting fed up with you - how many moves ahead are you looking? Every move I make that I like to think is original is triggering your "conditonal" response - you are making me feel inadequate and predictable :)

    Messed things up against Yorkie.

    My underhand psychological tactics (using the conditional feature to predict five of his moves in succession) have brought me back into contention against Leo. But given where my pieces are, I'd still make him a clear favourite :(

    It works fine with Chrome <ok>

    IE is probably the worst of the lot. I found FF annoying too.
