Eeek!

[Stardust]

By far the best move available. I was hoping you wouldn't see that out. It's so much harder to play against an opponent that rarely makes mistakes.

Time for Plan B.

It's obviously a lot easier when you don't have a clock timing you down. First game of "correspondence" chess.

Hmm... I've got a few very interesting lines here. I'm really really tempted to try something else for fun, but I don't think you'd play along. Besides, this is too safe to pass up.

Nom.

Remind me what line later.

[Stardust]

Heh, assuming I remember. There were three that I was strongly considering, but every time I come back to this game I think, "Now what was my plan again?"

[ganderin_dan]

I think we should start wrapping things up.

[Stardust]

As you wish.

[ganderin_dan]

Hope I'm not missing something obvious.

[Stardust]

Nope, you're good.

In retrospect, my best shot at winning may have been NOT making the safe choice. I need to you make a mistake at this point, so I should really be offering as many choices as possible.

[ganderin_dan]

Not sure if intentional, but that didn't offer me any choices. GG!

[Stardust]

Oops! I actually saw that earlier, but obviously forgot...

Seen, but not acted on in my half-drunken stupor.
