OverClocked ReMix Chess League

[damathacus]

Falchion showed up long enough to have several games tonight, including one against me, which I lost.

[Atlas Shrugged]

Falchion, what a hell of a player. Messed up my chance to checkmate him too. Damn. But Falchion won.

[kamoh]

Announcement:

As it is shown in the standings (which will be updated later tonight), I will be ending Week 2 TONIGHT. However, I will be doing so at 11:59 PM EASTERN (instead of Pacific), in order to try and get myself to sleep earlier. There will be something called "nebulous time" between 12:00 am and 3:00 am EST on Tuesday - if you get your match done before I post the final standings, I will include it - but the phase will end sometime between 12 and 3.

[Kholdstare]

Sorry for the losses whoever's on my team. I am wicked tired and sick and busy and BLARGH. Basically I'll try my hardest but no gaurentees.

[damathacus]

I wonder where John has been. It's not like him to be gone for so long at a time. I'm online tonight, anyway. If I see him I'll play him.

[Rainman DX]

Hey...I think the whole captainship thing is now defunct...

Fix'd.

Mkay. Much to kamoh's chagrine, a loss to Salaxzar, and a subsequent loss to Grayfox started up the evening. Only heaven knows what the bleak future may hold for this poor patzer's OCRCL career....

(22:58:29) Kholdstare logged out.

He never showed up. This wouldn't irritate me if I hadn't discovered shortly after this conversation that he played everyone who asked him to play except for me. So he dodged me and only me, then no-showed the next day.

I'd like to take this as a victory, since he was too sick to play me but not too sick to play Sovereign and Falchion. :???:

He played the other two guys first, before you even contacted him (I'm pretty certain).
Plus I don't wanna go changing things - no reports means no reports, and I'm not going to decide matches for you. Unless you want to agree to a draw or something, it's gonna get logged as no match...

...if your opponents don't want to play, that's fine. They'll keep not playing when they don't play other teams, and they'll suffer because of it while the other three teams will just get knocked down to your level.

Win against sketch blue that i forgot to report.

OMG, played 2 matches against sovereign and was squeezed like a lemon . Both of us im sure felt the same, hunger+no sleep+chess = brain damage.

[damathacus]

Win vs. Kamoh.
Loss vs. Keegan.

[Soveriegn_Legend]

Curses!
O well, I guess its on to week 3 then?

Not that you care, but it looks like you ignored a few games.

Falchion showed up long enough to have several games tonight, including one against me, which I lost.

Falchion, what a hell of a player. Messed up my chance to checkmate him too. Damn. But Falchion won.

Also, Falchion beat Kholdstare as well.

I don't feel like posting the fixed week 2 table just yet.

[Soveriegn_Legend]

JD better show up this week... we would have completely dominated had he been here for week 2.

[Kholdstare]

and im slowly feeling better. although still tired and busy. ill get matches done whenever someone bugs me to play

[amazgr8]

Won against Soveriegn_Legend

Amazgr8 vs Soveriegn_Legend: 1-0

It seems that Soveriegn_Legend may have been having some yahoo problems during the game

[kamoh]

There's actually a rule not posted regarding disconnects, which I'm treating the Soveriegn_Legend vs. amazgr8 match as...

If you get disconnected from the room (or forced to leave), you are entitled to one restart from the point of the disconnect. If you cannot certainly ascertain the position of the match, you may elect to replay the game.
If a second disconnect occurs on your side, you forfeit the game.
If the player NOT disconnected refuses to restart, THEY forfeit the game.

So it looks like the Legend/Amaz game is going to be replayed...

allright, unless the entire team wanted me out, I believe I'm in the buccanneers in the bottom position there.

[dPaladin]

Dama's screenname is GlitchyKeegan?

Man, I knew he was too good.

[kamoh]

I'm actually no longer sure what I want to do with the amazchess vs. soveriegnlegend game, so it is currently not posted. Until the two players can come to an agreeable decision on their game, I will leave it that way and I will advise the two players on this.

Keegan wins against Atlas. Also, 500 post! yay! Thats 100 posts per year I've been here!

Keegz needs to lurk more.

[kamoh]

I got in a car crash this morning and my car is now in need of both repair and fixing. I also got minor (note: pointless) injury but I'll be fine.

This probably won't have a lot of bearing on my online time, but I just wanted people to know.

I've got airbag contusions but that's about it. They itch and hurt. My breathing feels compromised but that may be a misconception or my recent sickness or the fact that I need to get fit. Anyways...everyone the SNES tourney should be fun and the more the merrier, we've already got 10 players (including Keegan :D), so it should be funs.

Take care man.hopefully your car is in better shape now. Im really worried about it. =(

[KeeganTheFox]

Keegan wins one against Bahamut!

[damathacus]

Sorry about the accident Kamoh. At least you didn't have to get your penis amputated.

I had a win against SketchBlue. Our game was delayed because he was flirting with porn bots, but he finally came in and we got it done. I haven't seen either Rainman or the other guy on at all this week. Tomorrow night I'm at my girlfriend's, so let's try Saturday?

[KeeganTheFox]

win against Khold, and I'm done my week!

[damathacus]

Here I am. Where are you guys?

[kamoh]

Teamplay sucks.

Abort?

[Soveriegn_Legend]

I will not be able to play at all this week sorry... extremely busy. I procrastinated things that I should have done right away and as usual it all built up and now I have a shit load to do before a short deadline so I can't afford to waste any time. O and sorry about the accident Kamoh, hope your feeling better then I am.

I'm not, but thanks for the update :)

[Rainman DX]

Yeah, I'm sorry for being so lazy, guys. I've never tried to do OCR chess and have a girlfriend at the same time, but it doesn't seem to be working out. So, of course I'll be around for the foreseeable future, but if Kamoh sees it fit to discard those of us who can't meet our quota each week, I should probably be the first to go...

Kamoh and I both have girlfriends. In fact, mine gave me a new chessboard for Christmas. Sounds like you're clingy/whipped. What does everyone else think?

Hey, wow, that's kinda rough, dude. I don't think I appreciate that tone very much. I was just pointing out the fact that my free time has been severely shot because of said romance, not that she was somehow keeping me from playing chess when I want to. It's just that I'd rather be with her doing stuff than hanging out with you patzers. (Oh snap!)

Phew. No need to go all PMSing on me, dama. I didn't know it was your time of the month already...

Don't. They're expensive and they have cooties.

I'm clingy AND whipped AND she's sitting here next to me, but I still find time for chessleague.

Speaking of which I don't find time to improve - Bahamut had plenty of chances to pizzown me, so I just resigned and we laughed about it.

New tournament thread:

http://www.ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=8125

I'm abandoning the league/teamplay ideas for the time being. Shame to let a thread like this go, but still. Teamplay deadline for week 3 will still be Monday 11:59pm (like 20 hours from now), but we'll be on hiatus.

[dPaladin]

I went ahead and played amazchess even though resistance is futile and all that jazz. Surprisingly, he blundered and I gained a very favorable position, so he ended up forfeiting. But then he stomped me on the rematch so its all good. Here are both games in order:
