Title: Move 25
Post by The_Jeh on Feb 26^th, 2008, 1:32pm

Chessandgo has all but completely replenished his reserve. This time, I am comfortable with his response, which is

25w Ha3n rb3w md3w mc3x Ed4s

And this is after he commented to me that he is a bit lost in camelless positions. Go figure.

Naturally, I propose the obvious 25b ef5s Me5e Mf5n mf6x ef4n. I think we should move soon. This is our chance to gain back a ton of reserve.

I concur. If we don't take the camel right now, we don't get to take it at all. Voice vote, please.

I agree with taking the camel.

And I think he was willing to accept this trade even though he said he feels a bit lost in camelless position because everyone else is as lost as he is. and he may expect a horse trade to follow which makes the position much more like one with a camel than one without a camel but all horses on the board.

I completely agree with you gentlemen and fully support the capture proposal. Down with that camel!

Another vote for taking the camel.

It is going to be interesting after the camel trade and likely horse trade, if we can save our advanced rabbit.

Seven votes. That's good enough.

I was looking at our position, and writing how we must capture the camel and there is only one way to do it, and then the move happened on the board. :)

It's very nice, after all having dipped into reserve a bit with the recent complications, that we got back six and a half days there.
