Hi all!

Maybe now most of us are back from holiday.
So I'd like to continue our chess game. Some
people said they are dead serious about playing.
Now they seem to be just dead, eh?

Anyway, I'll try. This is what we've got so far:

And it's white's turn now. Come on! Someone can
risk a move!

Ok, I'll try another move - bishop to g5:

Thanx for joining in. I hope there will be others
doing some moves too. Here's again a knight (to keep
the thing going ...). Knight to c6.

No, no, no. That won't do. You've to get yourself
a better excuse. This game was meant to be something
like a fun game with everybody making moves now and
then. I don't see the neeed for a complete coverage.

I did a few moves already. How about someone else
answering Randy Gardner's one now??

I have to use one of Joan's excellent pictures to
express my feelings :

                 .'.-.`-'.-.`.
            ..._:   .-. .-.   :_...

         :  _    _ _`~(_)~`_ _    _  :
        :  /:   ' .-=_   _=-. `   ;\  :

Unfortunately this move is _forbidden_! :)
Yes, sad but true. Look at the black king and 
at the white bishop at b5. 

Let's try again. :)

it! :( 

Well, since I seem to be the only one let's play

Sorry Llizard, I found your pieces didn't stand out enough
against the board, I've tried to make the black pieces

A new person playing and causing the game to go into even more

But I can't stop myself.

Yes, please, join in. But you are several moves behind.
Is your newsserver that late/slow ? The last move was
a white pawn to g4 taking a bishop. It's in a new thread
named 'Ascii Chess III'. Hope you can find it.
