Well, first I must apologize to Fyron. With a little beer, my challenge may have been worded with (1) a bit too much arrogance and (2) an insinuation that he was, hmmmmm, afraid to play me. To be fair, I've always figured my ability to be above average. Certainly not in the Rex/Asmala/Alneyan/Primitive/Stoney Category (to name a few that come to mind immediately). And by referencing the reading of the files...I was only mentioning that I don't (for some unknown reason--people have to keep cutting and pasting bits and pieces of them for me to read
). I just play by feel and what I've learned. 2 people who regularly study the "files", Asmala and Alneyan, are both great players and I was wondering if Fyron fell into the same Category.
The Last time I asked about a game between us, he was in a lot of games and was quite busy...so I don't want readers to think he was "scared" to play me.
There's a good chance he would win a game between us and a possibility I might reap some additional knowledge by playing someone good that I've never played before.
So, consider my challenge, hmmmmm, "toned down". I don't want people to read the thread and categorize me as some sort of arrogant "blowhard".
