'Modeling' recent debates using chess

Actually, you did. In post 57, you wrote:

Nope, not true. You also claimed to have easily solved a chess puzzle that involved a non-apparent queen sac; a claim that simply doesn’t fit your original, ignorance-revealing statement DNAunion ... was fortunate enough to squeak out a defensive stalemate by repetition posture.

Even if you want to play the silly game of pointing out that you never directly used the word "liar," the idea that this is an "unwarranted" accusation is simply untenable. It is most certainly warranted based on your statement in post 57.Check and mate.Also, you missed the fact that Percy was not warning you about defending yourself against a true accusation, he was reprimanding you for behaving in such a way as to cause conflicts with numerous board members. In this case, the problem started when you flew off the handle, just because Amlodhi questioned the self-proclaimed brilliance of your play against your son's computer.It would be foolish of you to think that the problem was really his overly general use of the word "stalemate." Your problem was with the stab at your ego, and complaining about his use of the word "stalemate" is more justifiable than complaining because your ego was poked at.If that's not obvious to you, I would guess it is obvious to everyone else, and that sort of behavior is the source of Admin's warning to you.{added by edit: It was Adminemooseus who issued the warning, not Admin Percy; my mistake.}[This message has been edited by truthlover, 04-26-2004]

I reckon we'd be just about the same level. I once got an exchange up on a 2207 player in a 1-hour game tournament. He thought he had an attack on my castled king, but I was pretty sure I could refute it. He underestimated me, because I was 1300 or so at the time, and I forked his Q and R with my Knight.I got in a great position, then made the exact same blunder he did, not paying attention to a Knight in an attacking position, and I gave the exchange back and lost a tight game. Horribly disappointing.I did beat a 1900 player the same day, though.
