With the sudden wave of games of Go, someone who had lost to me hardcore in both starcraft and go decided to challenge me to chess. I like chess but I don't play that much so I'm not that good at it yet. However, it felt so much easier now that I've started playing go!

Did this mystery user finally find something to defeat me in? Could I have defended my title of most awesome in a third consecutive game? The results are below:

Best of 3:

The other guy claims he messed up and he resigned kinda early.

For you or anyone who is curious, you can download free software from the internet fairly easily to run through a game. Of course, it's more fun to print the game and then do it on an actual chessboard <3 :3

Edit: added edit to OP about timer

What? I don't get what you mean. I made a third spoiler so that the result of thee first game wouldn't give it away when you see there are only two... so what are you saying?

Judging from the first 5-10 moves black is pretty terrible playing very passively and playing useless moves + losing material early, xD. White is a decent player at least judging from the opening, though getting your king checked so fast wasn't so good.

@ Cloud & Slayer91: Yeah I'm sure it was a fairly nonstandard game. It's no surprise we both had weird openings since neither of us have any reason to know which openings are good XD
