Click on the image above to make your move.  Then post your move as a reply here.  Don't bother quoting previous moves otherwise it'll get messy.

Good luck!

EDIT: Oh, and I decided to go ahead and be white.  Is that okay with you?  We can switch for the rematch.

This is going to take ages...  ::)

I think it would be much easier to play "live" online, instead of posting one turn after another.
On the other hand that way is more interesting for spectators.  :P

Good luck to you as well...

Interesting opening. I've never seen that before.

1. Sb1-c3 / d7-d5

This will be fun...

Do I detect a bit of sarcasm?  :)

Be sure to use the "With link back to position" option when posting so we can just click on the board to make the next move.

No. No sarcasm was intended.

I thought about e6, changing over to the French opening, but that would be a waste in this position. Let's play risky!

1. Nb1-c3 / d7-d5
2. e2-e4 / d5-d4

Perhaps you might go on writing your moves? Thx in advance...

P.S.:
I don't know how good you are (or me either^^). I don't spend a long time on thinking (only 2 min/move), so if you choose to think one hour about everyone - you will most likely win^^

Unfortunately, I don't know about openings, nor about chess notation.  I just play casually for fun.  So, please fill in the notation for me.  Thx!  ;)

I tend to spend about 4-5 mins per move.  I often worry that I'm making some really dumb mistake, so I tend to check it over two or three times before I commit to making a move.

Your move!  :)

1. Nb1-c3 / d7-d5
2. e2-e4 / d5-d4
3. Nc3-d5 / e7-e5

I just noticed that the numbers and letters at the sides are wrong...
I adjusted that...

Please do not change sides anymore. This will cause the numbers and letters to malfunction.

Okay.  I'll keep it white on bottom from now on.
