435152: While analyzing other peoples' games may not technically be wrong, the way you were doing it did not appear very polite. You should probably reconsider doing that.

And there is really no need to be sharing your views on fellow Brainking users appearances on this board. I have edited out those comments.

Dear friends of Xiangqi from Switzerland. Are you tired of playing online?
On Sunday, november 26th, the 4th Swiss Xiangqi Chiampionship will take place at the Kwang Chow restaurant in Zurich-Milchbuck. Everyone is kindly invited to participate. More information (German and English) on http://www.sxv.ch/sm06.
I'd like to see you there.

435152: You complained and complained and complained about the quality of players on this site. How they were all jokes and so far below your level. But, now I see that someone is playing you well, and you accuse him of using a computer program! Unbelievable.

435152: Why don't you bring some other good players to this site? I'm sure sure they will come when they hear that a marvelous player like yourself play here.

Just finished this game. It has a nice chariot sacrifice to finish:
Chinese Chess (Waterfall vs. Beren the 32nd)
But were my tactics good throughout?

Hello everybody!
I like chinese and korean chess too. Is it possible to organize some games at korean chess? Or propose korean chess on this portal?
Regards
Antonio

fakar10: after 2 years+- my reply is that: no good chinese chess player will come here to play...i quit this site the 2nd time now

kleineme: i suggest to have two games between you and me , then i will stay here until i beat you and quit

forweg: playing online always there are suspect to use computer to cheat. do you know the different between human and computer move?

sorry i don't have time to teach now even some one said "yes" to me.

on the board, only win or lose counted, no friend or enemy

you guys are so good chinese chess players, i can't wait to play with all of you . you beat me as you can. i don't mind to learn the way you play. just show me what you are , how strong you are.

kleineme: your opponent's move Cannon to G8 is not a good move, because he did not see the position well, actually he is in a winning position even you won two pawns, and his army is very active, his rook at i9 is much better than your rook at A1..If he move his Knight to D5 instead of Cannon to G8.......i am looking at more of your game and post my comments here.

435152: Your comments about games, which are still in progress, are not welcome. Please stop doing this and wait until the game is finished. Or choose a game which is already finished.

this is my comment to my own game, i play Red:
1 CE3 NG8 2 NG3 RH10 3 NC3.....The first two moves of my opponent were made in the same day, it is flexible, he has the options to play many opennings.......so far so good...not thing wrong with Black....

My last move NC3 has some meaning, i did not want to play by book, the intention is very obvious, my next move will be PC5 or PE5. my opponent stopped here, i think he was looking for references .......

After 3 days (i can't remember exactly how many days later) he made this move 3.....PC6. (this move were made 23 March 2009, 16:57:10) ....4 RI2 ..... My move were made 23 March 2009, 17:06:34....
my message to him:
435152: your move I expected...why you take so long to make this move?
and i see this pop up in Red : Your opponent is using the automatic vacation.

After 4 RI2 ... if 4.........CC8 5 PE5 PC5 i let his pawn cross the river...i would like to see what he can do..............

i have seen comments on the world class chess game still in progress, the players have no objection at all. the public welcome and enjoy it. the players just worry about how the opponent will cheat with computer help...such as the toiletgate and a GM withdrawn from the tournament after filing a complaint against his opponent using outsite help to defeat him in short moves. ha ha i don't think anything you should worry about if the commemts are on the already made move ....also playing online the chance to cheat with computer or outsite help is unavoiable....why don't you worry about that?

435152: ALL THE COMMENTS ON MY GAME STILL IN PROGRESS ARE VERY WELCOME

This is a CHINESE CHESS discussion board, isn't it?

when i look at finished chinese chess game, what i see is just the final position, i can not retrieve the whole game from the beginning move by move.
the same as when i look at some one's in progress game, i can not replay the game from the beginning...

what kind of game? what kind of player like my opponent? what kind of sport like this? i don't think this is sport. The last move he made is on 23 March 2009, to day is 28 March 2009. He did login and logout many times during this period, now he is using the automatic vacation.............

435152: Of course you can. If you look at the game notation, there are arrows << <> >> . You can go to the very first move and use the > to go forward move by move.

how do you know you can beat your opponent? if you have not played a game with him before. ...just look into his games move by move, you ask yourself a question, is his move you expected? can you find another move better than his move? how much better your move compared with his move? if just one move ahead of his, you may not win but you will not lose, if you can see two moves ahead of him, you can beat him for sure.

for whom? ho ho ho ho
pretended you are happy just put on dark eye glasses with smiing.. show your teeth with open mouth...
oh yes, i am the great pretender...pretending i am playing well...

435152: my opponent's last move is 4......Nc8 this move was made on 1 April 2009, 18:41:12...his previous move on 23 March 2009, 16:57:10...It take 10 days to make one move....i hate it, i hate this slow moving game.....he did it on purpose. he just want to win the game by that.....he knows he is no match for me.....

any way, his last move is not bad..... can he match me for the whole game? i could make my move right away, i don't need 10 days for one move, but i won't stay at this site any longer.....

435152: If you do not want to play games where your opponet has 10 days to make a move then I suggest you do not make or accept them.

You have some interesting comments to make but continual whinging is not one of them. Further whinges about playing times and the the like will be edited or deleted.

Thank you

I need some help from the XQ rule experts among you. Please take a look at one of my games. According to my interpretation of Chapter 21 within the Asian rules I am of the opinion that my opponent has to stop chasing my rook and play another move either instead of Ng3 or instead of Ni2. My opponent doesn't agree so I need someone who explains to him why he has to change moves, or someone who explains to me why I have to change moves. Thanks in advance!

kleineme: You don't need to refer to the Asian Rules. The BK rules clearly provide that:
“Perpetual chasing of an unprotected enemy piece is forbidden too. It means that a player cannot attack the same enemy piece (which is not protected by another enemy piece) moving to and from the same two points indefinitely. The player who causes such situation is obliged to break it off.”

Pedro Martínez, kleineme:
I have to agree to both of you. The asian rules are just saying the same like the BK rules, just more detailed for special situations. So in my opinion your opponent has to stop chasing your rook in this perpetual way.

This is a clear violation of rules by red!!
Perpetual chase of the black car is definitely forbidden, red has to change, otherwise the game is lost!!(see rules of Asian Xiangqi Federation)

Pedro Martínez, FromHell, svyel: Thanks for your support. You didn't convince my opponent, but you've convinced Fencer who put an end to this unpleasant chapter.

when I read all the comments on this discussion board...I find 435152 is a guy who knows very well abt c chess...heor she could be a very good player...

I would like to challenge 435152 for a game
and the top two players for a game too.

A rule is a rule just declaired the game is lost for the guy who is the violator. WHEN THAT CHASE REPEATED 3 TIMES.

GUESS WHAT IS THE WEBMASTER'S DECISION ?

I am here to accept any one for a chinese chess game
this is a better way for me to challenge people

svyel: Was that game played in Germany?

what?

computeropponen:
435152 is pretty strong. Much stronger in chinese chess than me, that's sure. If you want to play the current two top rated players of active established rating for chinese chess, I will play you. If you want the two best players here, it's not me.

kleineme: After I reviewed your game against an opponent who is rated about 378 pts below you..
If I were you I don't bother to cry out for Arbriter......I will look into the game if I have another way to beat this guy { a weak opponent}

I suggest you play against stronger player who understand the game rule and good for you to improve yourself......

I have no friend and enemy here
what I want is to play the possible strong player.

no.1 Svyel 2236
no.2 FromHell 2236
no.3 Kurnagai 2137

I am unrated
I stand a chance to win?

computeropponen:
Like you said it: You are unrated and your strength is unknown. I don't know you and I don't know your name. Hypothetical you can be a beginner at this game (I don't think so) but you can also be Xu Yinchuan. So everything is possible.

FromHell:
I am not Xu Yinchuan, the grandmaster of China, he won't play here for sure.
I am not a beginner
the message from Pedro Martinez rated no.9 with 1859 pts like that " sent me an invite after you get better" this guy is not playing a chinese chess game

It looks you are the one willing to talk with open mind
anyway I thank you for playing with me.....................

FromHell:
The game I play vs Kumagai , the no.3 player with 2137 pts on the rating list, has not finished yet

It looks like I am going to win that game

yes, you are right ..... every thing is possible

it is a sure win for me
Kumagai should resign with no further play
