feel the pieces and this is the way they came out..
White
Bishops on A-I and H-I
King on B-I
Knights on C-I and G-I
Queen on D-I
Rooks on E- I and F-I
..........................................................
Black
Rooks on A-8 and F-8
Knights on B-8 and C-8
Bishops on G-8 and H-8
Queen on D-8
King on E-8 .....




white.............Black
G-2 to G-3.. .. B-8 to C-6
F-I to F-4 .....D-7 to D-5
E-2 to E-3.....E-7 to E-6
F-I to F-2 .....C-8 to D-6
D-2 to D-3 .....F-7 to F-5
G-I to F-3.......D-8 to E-7
C-I to B-3 ..... Castle , E-8 to C-8 , A-8 to D-8.
B-3 to D-4 ....C-6 x D-4
E-3 x D-4 ....G-7 to G-6
F-3 to E-5 ....D-6 to F-7
D-I to D-2 .... F-7 x E-5
D-4 x E-5 .....H-8 to G-7
B-2 to B-3 .....F-8 to F-7
A-I to B-2 ..... C-8 to B-8
B-2 to C-3 ....G-7 to F-8
C-3 to B-2 .....F-8 to G-7
D-3 to D-4 .....G-7 to F-8
A-2 to A-3......H-7 to H-5
B-I to A-2 .......H-5 to H-4
E-I to G-I........H-4 to H-3
H-I to F-3 .......F-7 to H-7

game adjourned because i have to get some stuff done but i feel i would
ask for a draw in this position because it seems any move i make will
weaken me..Since my Ivan does not draw or resign you have to kill him (
checkmate him )
so i will continue the game ...
Here is the set up if you do not want to follow the moves ..

White ( me )
Pawns on.. -A-3- B-3 C-2 - D-4 - E-5-F-4 - G-3
H-2 .....King on A-2 , Queen on D-2 ...Rooks on
F-2 and G-I ..Bishops on B-2 and F-3 .......

Black , ivan ...
Pawns on A-7 B-7-C-7 -D-5 - E-6 - F-5 -G-6 - H-3.......King on B-8 -
Queen on E-7 -- Rooks on D-8 to H-7 ...Bishops on F-8 and G-8 ...

This was a random game , i did not want any castling but since the black
came out with a castle position , Ivan castled so i let it ..

I have not made my next move yet but what i am thinking is moving the
G-3 to G-4 and if it takes my pawn with his F- pawn then my bisho takes
his pawn and it will be attackig his H-3 pawn ..I would move the rook up
then try and take the H-3 pawn ....
I can not move my black bishop because his queen and bishop are aimed at
A-3 pawn ..
If ivan does not take the G-4 pawn IF i move it there , then id move G-4
to G-5 ..Then the right side of the board would be clogged up..

what do yuo guys think about my game so far.
I have had to think hard ..

Time control is 45 moves in I45 minutes My clock is down to II9 min
....

I like this random game , it has brought back some excitement to chess
to me ..It is easy to set up on my computer ..Id like to play random
computer vs random computer ..Ivan vs ???

well i need to get some stuff done..


Id like to see HELPBOT vs Ivan in a random game or maybe EJAY or SIMAN
or Sanny or Sam Sloan ......Or Taylor Kingston ..or any one really ...I
like to see some one else play Ivan but me ....

Did you get the email I sent you, SAT W-7?
Or are you not interested in having IVAN play another dedicated chess
computer?

I am sorry , i get so much spam that if your name was not in my e mail
file i probably got rid of it , i do not even read the " subject line "
..

Hey id like my Ivan to play your computer , do you want to play a
regular game or a random game or maybe one of each ?

You can respond here or my home e mail , now that i know you mite send
me a e mail i will read the ' subject line " ...

What is the name of your computer ?

I have played Sanny's GC a handful of times , lost a few and won a few
..His GC seems a little stronger in the middle game but the end game my
Ivan ( excalibur company ) is a little stronger.

I look forward to playing your computer , id play my Ivan vs more
computers but i can not do it on line with webtv ..By the way in the
chess computer world mine is weak but i still like playing it vs other
computers ....


On that random game i ( white ) lost , if you look at the set up it
looked like black was weaker but i lost anyway ..It was kind of fun ,
one thing i noticed since there was no opening book Ivan was thinking
hard on every move ...
I just pulled the major pieces out of a bag with tongs so i could not
feel the pieces with my hand..Of course if the bishops would have come
up on the same color square i would have moved it to the opposite color
square ..
Maybe we can play a random game like this if you have the ability to put
your individual pieces on any square ...

If you want to play a normal game that will be fun too..

I will look here before i go to work in the morning or feel free to send
me a e mail to my e mail.....

Okay, I know you are a poor home owner who can't afford an Asus Eee PC

And I though Sanny's suck.

Why is there suddenly a castling in your strange rules?

Ah I see, there is no way to prevent castling for Ivan.

I's rather write sat2pgn.rb than typing that in, but I just go read
other articles.

Is the SIMAN guy supposed to be me? LehMAN used to call me like that
once but it's really just Simon.

I never did that, too. But when I finally won against my father's
Mephisto II at it's "normal" level I wrote the game down from what the
chess computer had recorded. Later I typed it from the paper into my
computer:

[Date "1990.03.01"]
[White "Simon Krahnke"]
[Black "Mephisto II a3"]
[Result "1-0"]

1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Bc5 4. O-O d6 5. h3 Bd7 6. Nc3 Nf6 7. b3 O-O 8.
Bb2 Be6 9. Re1 Bxc4 10. bxc4 b6 11. Nd5 Re8 12. d4 Bxd4 13. Nxd4 exd4 14.
Bxd4 Nxe4 15. f3 Nxd4 16. fxe4 c5 17. c3 Nc6 18. Re3 Qg5 19. Qe2 Rad8 20.
Rf1 f6 21. Rf5 Qg6 22. Qf3 Ne5 23. Qf4 Rd7 24. Rg3 Qf7 25. Nxf6+ Kh8 26.
Nxh7 Qxc4 27. Qh4 g6 28. Nf6+ Kg7 29. Qh7+ Kf8 30. Nxd7#

I thought that was a good game you played .

That was a good move # 26 Knight x H-7 ..
I mite have taken the rook then i belive his queen x knight ....That
mite have lost or prolonged the game if i was playing it ..

I have only beaten my Ivan one time and i wish i had that game recorded
.I used every brain cell i had to win ....I have lost over 400 + games
to Ivan .....

I lost ....
I never did write down the rest of the moves , i am too lazy ....

I realize since i am not a serious player and i am comfortable playing
at my level writing down my games is a waste of time..

I do think computers which have the ability to keep track of moves for
you would be good..
I just can not do it my self.
