That sounds good to me, I am on mountain time. I will be leaving here pretty soon to go fishing. Just give me a call when you are available and I will hop online and we can get some games going.

Alex did pretty good in 1/0... he was wayyyy behind on time but did very well nonetheless. we played 1 3-move... I will tell you all right now I'm a mid level major when it comes to 3-move. After the first 3-move I had him make it gayp and caught him in 2 or 3 losses at mid game (I'm damn good at gayp). He got me a few times in end game with second position and a few others where I counted wrong and he got man up. All in All with no blitz practice Alex did very good. I think he may have even got a little addicted and will be back for more 1/0 or even 1/1 games. jeez I suck at 3-move haha. But I guess playing the world champ will make a lot of people feel like that. I'm going fishing... take care everyone

This is much better :lol: I think after practicing couple weeks, I can easy get a level when noone would beat me 1/1 on long run: 20-40 games.

When we played games, my wife, son and daughter were staying on my shoulders :evil: and asked - when we can go to the pool. Finally, when we had one man each, I had a move and needed to make only 4 moves for 4 secs, my daughter took mouse away and said: "Lets go !"

See you in the evening, baby ! Think about 1/1 ...

Lol that reminds me of a scene in the best movie ever (the king of kong) where Steve Wiebe breaks the record with a little kid screaming at him: "WIPE MY BOTTOM!"
