MrD - I just didn't see that last move taking the pawn. For some reason I thought you'd park your Queen next to it and my King could run away. Well played

Weath
I appear to have taken a win off MisterTea through resignation. It's the only way I'm picking up points at the moment!

MisterTea
It was inevitable that I was going to lose Weath - well played - and I need the headspace of less games on the go to try and salvage anything at all from my other 2 league games and my match in the <1000 competition. My only hope in that game is that my king and 2 rooks bore my opponent into splitting the points between us. At the moment I'm anticipating zero points from all those games.

Weath
I think "inevitable" gives me more credit than I deserve, MisterTea!
Let me know when you're ready for the rematch. I won't issue the challenge until you have some capacity.

I think I've managed to issue the re-match challenge correctly!

Weath, resignation is a perfectly valid way of winning. Also I think most would consider been 8 points up inevitable unless there was some huge anomaly in the position or a nice sacrifice is what caused the difference.

Thanks Bigleggy, it was nail biting as I wasn't sure I'd make it before you got to me.
Thanks for the game Smugbloke.
