Ok, to Gnes, PX, and Clusky, I am making some and giving to Billy because I trust him to guard them with his life, or it means he's in trouble (yes, Shuz, I'll make some for you too since you're in the car. :p). I don't know how much I'm going to be around for Hobo since the initial plan is to go to a wedding but I might make an appearance, so that's why I'm giving them to him. He can give them to you guys and you can eat them and enjoy. :)

Edit: @PX's statement... Like... a cowboy? :p I'll bring the hat. Wait... What? ;) <3

OMG... There are going to be brownies in my car. <3

I can't wait til Friday. Those brownies are sooooo good. I bet if we had a tournament in Dallas with a prize payout of brownies and an entry fee of like $3, we'd have out-of-state people come!!!

!!! That's a great idea actually =) fund-raiser for Monica!

You are white correct? Your turn to move... hmm...

Nxd4. Easily your best move. Past that, depends on whether the computer plays ... cxd4 or ... exd4 .

Lol OK then... well... then just reverse the moves.

... Nxf3. 2. Bxf3 Bxf3 3. Qxf3 Qxf3 4. gxf3 Rxg1+ (Alternative line is 4. ... Rg7f7 or 4. ... Rf8g8 )

Computer might play ... Nxf3 2. gxf3 early on instead of down the line.

Another line playable is ... Bxf3. That particular line is less risky and might be better (I've not looked into that line as far as the previous one, so it might turn out to be worse. However for 5-10 turns in the future, it looks fairly safe.)

Example:

... Bxf3 2. gxf3 Rf8g8 3. Rxf7+ Rxf7

Yet another line playable is ... Nxe2.


Example:

... Nxe2 2. Qxe2



Another, more aggressive move is ... Bc2. 2. Qa1 (forced) Rb8


Another aggressive line as well is ... Qh6 2. Nh2 Bc2 3. Qa1 (forced pretty much) Bxb3

I'm nowhere near "pro" level, however on a good day I can have a fairly good draw/win ratio against someone rated 1800 or so, which isn't too shabby.

To put that in perspective though, Masters are rated 2200 and higher. Bright beginners are often considered to start at about 1000.

To also explain it better, it's roughly estimated that for every 400 point gap you come across, the person on the higher end has a 10x greater chance of winning than his opponent. So, if someone rated 1000 played someone rated 1400, the 1000 player would usually only win 1/10 games where as his opponent would win up to 9/10 games (might have a draw or two in there, the chance of drawing decreases drastically the higher of an rating advantage you have). Some of the better Modern Chess Grandmasters have a rating of 2600+. If they were to play me (We'll just put me on the high end and say I am exactly 1800), I would probably win only 1/100 games against them.

Sad day.
I can't make it to Hobo.

But tonight, I'm having a few people over to play Smash. Everyone should come, yes?
