Well, congrats Callid on winning that game.

[Unless making critical errors of course.]
Maybe... we could have a game some time?

Sure, after this game is done. I've played a lot with c-square, now I'm looking for another opponent anyway...

I know I should probably just resign at this point, but I want to test a theory.

I suggest we stop the notation. At least.

Actually, never mind.  I resign.  I thought I could force you into a stalemate, but you have one too many pawns for that.

Good game, and well played!  Best of luck against Schillok.

If anyone else wants to play, I'm game!

[Callid]

Thanks for the game.

Why did you sacrifice the knight????

I was going to lose either the knight or a rook.  (If you can see a way out of that, I'd love to know!)  I moved my knight there, hoping Callid would go after my rook.  Then I could take Callid's rook with my knight and it would be a fair trade.

in my way of thinking it might have been better to exchange the rook for the Knight ( it called losing the minor exchange ) by playing N-B2 (c2) Then NxR (d3xe1) RxN (d1xe1)

Second comment on a finished game this move I believe cost you the game. Better to attack the knight by Kg6-g5. that passed pawn is your only hope for a draw. You pushed to remove the knight but then your king is too far away to help you on the other side.

I'm not sure about it, but it may be true... Although I had given the knight for the pawn on the first opportunity.
