    Jupiter and I played a third recently, close though it was, Jupiter managed to edge the contest and capture my king at the end.

    Well played sir.

    *edit*

    Post cancelled pending confirmation of the games I reported. I need to double check the results.

    Confirmed 10/17 wins with shot. Also added two victories against Marquis. There was a third match with Marquis won fair and square but i'll let him post if he chooses.

    ATRAXI NO FORFEITING IF YOU'RE ON BATTLE CHESS! :) (oops. I left my caps lock on. Then i noticed, but i didn't care to change the case. Instead I wrote this out thinking it would look better. it doesn't)

    Great games Marq and Atraxi!

    (1) I was in an unstoppable downward spiral towards a loss. There was no way for me to win, so i conceded to game to Marquis.

    (2) I have people forfeit to me on a regular basis. I won't name names, but these are people in the League, playing Battle Chess. I know it's frowned upon, and it irritates the hell out of me when they do it, but as I said above, by that point I was in an unwinnable game.

    Okay, I couldn't remember last night very well, but I do know that Marquis and I played at least 2 games in the early morning hours. I did find indications that I won one game and another ended in stalemate in my journal.txt

    The stalemate one was already reported. You won the one I forfeited and we didn't play any more games AFAIK.

    Welcome Stonefist!

    As Wise stated, IRC is the best place to contact any of us for a match. I'll have Stone fist added to the original post roster as soon as I am able.

    There are chess boards available in game at moonglow, north of the bank, or you can play battle chess on the test server (there is a forum post with instructions to connect to test I'm just too lazy to copy them here.)

    Main rules: follow a gentleman's standards, try to always finish your match, and keep in mind I will only track the results of the game if a winning shot is posted to this thread.

    Here is a win from 10/26 that I failed to post

    I believe I lost a game to Liberation on this same date, but I didn't take a shot of my loss. HEY LIB if you read this, post your victory over me here so I's can record it


    (note that there was a lot of bribery to the pawns during this match, but I believe Marquis would agree that this was still a fair game :) )
