As it seems we are never online on the right devices at the same time, I thought this is the best way to start a game and have some fun in the process!!!

I will take black, and each player has one day to make a move. You may look at a board but not the pieces, (I won't be looking at either)

Alright shall we start? (No he hasn't agreed, I'm pushing this game on him @Baal )

Game one: Baal vs. PiesAreSquared

1.

Rules:

1. No chess pieces in the position given allowed. Boards are. If White (Baal) is unable to use algebraic notations, he may use a board and pieces.

2. Notations in algebraic. 1.e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nf6 etc.

3. A move must be made within twenty four hours of posting by the other player.

4. Fun must be had.

so what, I'd go e4, and you'd do d4, and I'd do exd4 and so on?

I rarely transpose to the French when d4 is played but I'm a French player when e4 I played. I like this counter gambit variation, it's pretty sharp! :)

It had a perfectly round door like a porthole, painted green, with a shiny yellow brass knob in the exact middle. The door opened on to a tube-shaped hall like a tunnel: a very comfortable tunnel without smoke, with panelled walls, and floors tiled and carpeted, provided with polished chairs, and lots and lots of pegs for hats and coats—the hobbit was fond of visitors. The tunnel wound on and on, going fairly but not quite straight into the side of the hill —The Hill, as all the people for many miles round called it—and many little round doors opened out of it, first on one side and then on another.
