<< < 1 2 3 4 5 > >> 12. July 2005, 20:52:54 Subject: re: Sumerian bizarre is Modified by danoschek (12. July 2005, 20:54:46) that ppl still fall to the illusion, an inflation of exclamation marks could substitute
meaning whatsoever ... but style asides, making moves during vacation is not a pointer at multinic humbug per se - it could mean respecting you in particular ... ~*~ 8. July 2005, 23:37:19 Subject: Re: andreas: Modified by danoschek (8. July 2005, 23:37:55) almost is a very essential word that often
makes the difference in a good post, thanks. I cAn almost agree as the geometrics are almost similar.  ~*~7. July 2005, 22:44:24 Subject: capablanca what setup ever is not more dynamic than chess ...
the cherries seem too sour to me said the fox who couldn't climb the tree ... ~*~7. July 2005, 00:47:55 Subject: EVERY positional player will give you a hard time - you should play a few of them ... ~*~ . 6. July 2005, 23:59:54 Subject: indeed it's a difference to say 'you're a tactical player' (I'm not popier than the pope) but 'no positinal player' with
invalid phrases, although you oviously missed, 23)... Nf5 was highly positional.
- since you're crying for mods after asking for trouble I reckon you wish to be hidden, ok. ~*~ 6. July 2005, 23:11:25 Subject: ColonelCrockett: sorry Modified by danoschek (6. July 2005, 23:14:14) but you do not have the required judging skills which would grant you to use phrases
like 'obviously' in any context regarding me - as your assuming is not even close to what I have been saying - I suggest you read it again, perhaps strategically this time ... ~*~5. July 2005, 02:21:22 Subject: well the realationship is obvious of course Modified by danoschek (5. July 2005, 02:23:47) but we should stay serious. what's "tendencially drawish" anyway, french exchange ? 
both games are well balanced as far as I could claim a gothic overview - actually it's the 'undrawish games' that have problems to be interesting if one side has huge advantage  ~*~2. July 2005, 22:50:28 Subject: just if you play 3 checks you should not expect that programmers know what a check is.
it is actually a three and a half check chess or something else of a rather comedian approach contradicting even simplest logic ... . ~*~2. July 2005, 22:40:41 Subject: Re: the correlation between gothic and 8x8 Grim Reaper: although a bit indifferent,
very well put. and my heart is warmed anyway for all children of the world who enjoy it.  . ~*~2. July 2005, 19:13:43 Subject: for a first time I agree with nasmichael that message had some substance after all ... as mentioned I don't envy anbody to
have fun with that neat capablanca setup for edification and freeing up the spirit for the real thing which is drawish for uninspired computerplayers only ... ~*~ . 1. July 2005, 01:17:54 Subject: obviously you do not know many chess players. ~*~30. June 2005, 21:27:11 Subject: Re: Benefits to Gothic Chess Modified by danoschek (30. June 2005, 21:35:29) ColonelCrockett: no, certainly viceversa though - naturally ... but that fairly
neat setup-adjustment to capablanca chess has no magic at all and isn't pure ... ~*~ 12. April 2005, 20:16:29 Subject: Re: MAX (www.mailchess.de) -graphics Modified by danoschek (12. April 2005, 20:18:12) Caissus: oh I see ... afaik the piece set for the chess v2.0 by Stanback
is in the public domain ... it's on aminet from about 1990 and still much more appealing than the vortex drafts - just the extra pieces would have to be added ... ~*~ 12. April 2005, 17:53:50 Subject: Re: MAX (www.mailchess.de) Caissus: ahhhh - THAT is what I call graphics.
much better than the C64 outfit of the socalled vortex ... ~*~ 10. April 2005, 13:13:58 Subject: Oh Mighty Notepad ! :D Modified by danoschek (10. April 2005, 13:20:56) EdTrice: sure  okay - really good to know . so I will put the big bag of
bunches of lima bears you have dropped into my direction regarding capablanca- chess where it indeed belongs ... it's okay we all have our timorous moments.   ... ~*~25. March 2005, 19:38:52 Subject: Re: You may post on the Gothic Board now Walter Montego: calm down.
the uscf was mentioned without reference link which I added in that my own very helpful way. happy easter . ~*~ 23. March 2005, 21:24:45 Subject: uscf Modified by danoschek (23. March 2005, 23:33:07) EdTrice:
since the USCF is connected to the world not only via pipeline here the url: http://www.uschess.org ... ~*~ . 22. March 2005, 22:00:59 Subject: great news  . just hope it's not the kasparov from iyt .
polite and modest, that really does not sound like him ... . ~*~15. February 2005, 21:11:12 Subject: Re: Janus verses Gothic mahavrilla: I believe that tempered capablanca chess appears to have
a higher potential than janus ... but the majority of games here doesn't reflect all the strategic options properly, coffeehouse style mainly. ~*~ 14. January 2005, 03:52:08 Subject: it is not snoopy period Modified by danoschek (14. January 2005, 03:53:09) ... ... and that appears as rare nowadays ... ~*~ ...  5. October 2004, 01:40:34 Subject: all this ridiculous hickhack ... Modified by danoschek (5. October 2004, 01:44:32) because of two screwed up wannabe-moderators and, one screwed up
ex-wannabe-moderator, who invented nothing but a trice-monthly newsletter about how many orgasms he gets by playing hide and seek ... (I'll edit that - not promised) ~~*~~ 5. October 2004, 01:33:07 Subject: would I please anybody Modified by danoschek (5. October 2004, 01:34:51) if I would fiddle a bit around in posts as it seems to be custom here ? saved
the board - blur is futile ... purple was pleasantly judging well. Hereby extending my vote for hastalavista ceremony to any uncompetitive moderator applying ... ~*~ 5. October 2004, 00:51:06 Subject: like poor walter Modified by danoschek (5. October 2004, 00:56:42) warned him, too - the kewl and moderate I am,reliably ...
and, ... as usual it's not me who has to hide something ... I love to see my points proven ... carry on - don't worry be cappy ... hehehe ~*~ 5. October 2004, 00:46:29 Subject: who cares I have him on hide since his first abuse after my warning. ~*~ 4. October 2004, 23:23:01 Subject: reminds me Modified by danoschek (4. October 2004, 23:23:20) is that poll closed about keeping gothic at brainking ? not that I'd
want to change my vote completely but maybe refined to keeping the game, paying him one dollar pa and kick his butt hasta la vista ... ~*~ 4. October 2004, 23:19:40 Subject: blessed ! positive even if that happens to mt st helen
much more people have to suffer. ~*~ 4. October 2004, 22:05:46 Subject: GNU Chess and its basic piece-value calculation are
in the public domain since the early 90s ... ~*~ 4. October 2004, 17:05:14 Subject: somebody must keep it up here Modified by danoschek (4. October 2004, 17:06:57) quality is already invented, feel free to make use, too. ~*~ 4. October 2004, 04:06:42 Subject: Thanks for caring to use the word 'seem' Thad. It is a philosophical question indeed whether someone who Modified by danoschek (4. October 2004, 04:20:43) encourages to carrying off-topic posts elsewhere (e.g. story board) is perfectly on
topic, as I do believe, actually - ben johnson though merely stay as nice pointer at more folks who were not very selective by what means special privileges are to be acchieved ... ~*~ 4. October 2004, 02:05:17 Subject: well somebody must start the smartness Modified by danoschek (4. October 2004, 02:05:38) you can't negotiate with two groups of mankind
that is sulking children and terrorists ... good night, and leave me a few crumbs of him, ugha, I want to eat them on the gameboard ... ~*~ 4. October 2004, 01:59:39 Subject: when it comes to cursing you really should not dare speak, eddieboy ... ~*~ 4. October 2004, 01:55:27 Subject: yeah *clap shoulder* playing hide and seek is just like kewl - we have it since weeks - persons of an average development stage regulary get over commenting it after about 3-4 days Modified by danoschek (4. October 2004, 02:01:48) but you poor Alpha are proven provocated below
by nasty Omega ... here's a sedativum. Ur welcome ~*~ 4. October 2004, 01:50:28 Subject: be mild Thad Modified by danoschek (4. October 2004, 01:51:17) the only thing that - imho - makes sense on gothicchess.org
is the tiny tiny chapter Mr. Trice wrote about symmetry in gothic chess ... he's now just running out of feathers on a snake in his redundancy ~*~ 0:) 4. October 2004, 01:45:03 Subject: after all he avoided the RE: in subject line Modified by danoschek (4. October 2004, 01:46:11) I reckon that we shall have to live with some non-linearities until
each topic board has the backstage gruntler-lodge implemented ... ~*~ 4. October 2004, 01:40:27 Subject: but in my incredible fairness I appreciate your few topic posts without
the olympic games and silly statistics ... ~*~ 4. October 2004, 01:35:01 Subject: it was ( as you confessed yourself, thanks ! -"I just suggest everyone hide them and pretend they don't even exist." ) Modified by danoschek (4. October 2004, 01:37:47) your old notorious misuse of this board for patching personal reality problems ... ~*~ 4. October 2004, 01:27:05 Subject: you have part of the sense you could make Modified by danoschek (4. October 2004, 01:32:44) on hide also ... but we got used to it, so merely play
hide and seek, while we take care of gothic - and I was yet far from my best pointing that you're minorly serious ... ~*~ 4. October 2004, 01:23:52 Subject: archbishop mate Modified by danoschek (4. October 2004, 01:25:44) counts for the chancellor too - could give
an epaulette-mate even without epaulettes but I guess you mean without foe pieces as well ... ~*~ 4. October 2004, 01:20:00 Subject: k I shall step on that tail at the story board eventually ... :P ~*~ 4.

October 2004, 01:11:42) Take the bull by the hand and avoid mixing metaphors. ~*~ 4. October 2004, 01:05:37 Subject: and ben johnson falls somewhere between overdoped for 200 meters and underdoped for marathon. ~*~ 4. October 2004, 01:00:22 Subject: no cat has two tails Modified by danoschek (4. October 2004, 01:00:39) but one cat certainly has one tail more than no cat - therefore a cat has three tails ... ~*~ 2.

creating a gothic DanoGambit from scratch, here a link to the game - just for your interest - as seamly, please no analysis yet during its progress ... ~*~ 1. October 2004, 20:05:18 Subject: I think it's pretty expensive Modified by danoschek (1. October 2004, 20:06:38) compared to regular chess programs on sophisticated development stages
- but as it's the less spread gothic variation and sort of exclusive (handsigned ?) it will find buyers for sure - I set my limit for gamerstuff to $50 though, a principle. ~*~ 1. October 2004, 00:29:40 Subject: I have a solution for this beyond any doubts very serious but actually also very very irritating debate about humour Modified by danoschek (1. October 2004, 00:32:18) <every board should have a separate backstage lodge - you know, like
in muppets show, the two grumbling granddads making snide remarks so everybody has the choice whether to read - sometimes I even would ... >:) ~*~ 30. September 2004, 23:44:00 Subject: mamihlapinatapei !! Modified by danoschek (30. September 2004, 23:44:42) (like the fuegians say) for "looking at each other hoping that either will offer
to do something which both parties desire but are unwilling to do" - a bit short and too merchandizing imho, but close to informative and, gothic chess after all. thx. ~*~ 30.
