What exactly is preventing Black from playing 18...dxc5 after 18.c5? I tried looking through the posts, and can't find an answer. | ||

I can use a statshack way better than my brother but it still remains cheating.

and for the next move I think it's a no brainer right ? because unless all of you are: - extremely high or drunk - extremely masoquists - extremely capable of winning a game down a queen, all of which I'm quite sure you're not - then again I don't think anyone could win this game down a queen hahaha- , I think you guys are gonna Rxd2. I saved the screenshot already for that move, so just confirm me that you want me posting it today right away and we can move on to the 20. | ||

I'm pasting these into a pgn game viewer, but they're invalid because castling is not written with zeros but with O's, and also we played Na4 and not Na5. It's annoying to fix these mistakes _every_ move. Yes, we play RxQ of course. Done buddy. sorry for the inconvient | ||

He IS using it to save time. After all is said and done the only one that has a say is lightman. If he has an issue then chessmaster should refrain from posting and save his analysis and notes for after the game is done. Lightman are you O.K. with a FIDE Master using an engine to analyse moves and posting them during the game? jfazz HWATING!!! Pics please! Were can we follow this tournament? Any chance we will be able to see them later in chessgames.com? Also lightman just update the move Rxd2 ![]() | ||

I'm honoring vetkel's original rules that come all the way from first and second TL Chess tourneys and TL Chess match I, which state if you read them- 1) RULES: > No chess engines or outside help, please. I think your teammates have handled well the situation with chessmaster asking him not to use chess engine nor to post again in the thread, which is why I haven't felt the need to get involved; at this point if I see another post of him here I will ask for a mod to ban him. Team Liquid has always had a strong reputation and firm policies against cheating/cheaters in their website activities, and although I'm not part (neither the match is) of the administrating team (or TL activities), I believe it's my and our duty to carry on that policy through all its inner activities. I'm going to post your Rxd2 move right away now. CURRENT POSITION: JUST PLAYED: 19...Rf6 VOTING CLOSES: THURSDAY | ||

Ok, I haven't been in the loop for a while, but R1d1 looks good to me. Note that after R1d1 Nf7, e5 is possible. Unless we can win a pawn we should not play cxd6 unprovoked. 20. R1d1 Thanks for the help Lightman. | ||
