Sam has closed his piano and gone to bed ... now we can talk about the real stuff of life ... love, liberty and games such as Janus, Capablanca Random, Embassy Chess & the odd mention of other 10x8 variants is welcome too
For posting: - invitations to games (you can also use the New Game menu or for particular games: Janus; Capablanca Random; or Embassy) - information about upcoming tournaments - disussion of games (please limit this to completed games or discussion on how a game has arrived at a certain position ... speculation on who has an advantage or the benefits of potential moves is not permitted while that particular game is in progress) - links to interesting related sites (non-promotional)
That's the problem with humour: not all of it is universal. I was highly amused by ughaibu's posting. I thought it both creative and funny, and I couldn't believe that anyone would take offence. But as a fellow Brit of mature years it's likely that ughaibu and I have senses of humour that overlap to some extent.
Humour is sometimes a risk, especially when it's cross-culture. But today is April Fool's Day, and it's just possible that Andromedical is playing a joke on us by pretending to take things so seriously!
