checkin' in, looking for the next move. . . .
Actually, this game is still one I can win. . . . maybe even force to a win.

Well, that wasn't where you snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. . . .

I need to try to figure out how to put together the diagram. I just have a hard time getting that website to work for me for some reason. Or I gotta rebuild it on a chessboard or something. Naja.
well, I understand that. I will build the pic for you here, every once in a while.

looks like you still haven't snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Amazing there is any chance for me at all.
I'll be gone another day or two. . . . thanks for the game thus far. Plenty of things to think through here.
Babe, I don't think I ever responded to your post. But I'm down to play a game. It's been a while. This goes for anyone who wants to play The Master (here defined as someone who won more games than they lost).
you'll be next after Log finally fails to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Wait. . . . will Log then have a winning record? What do you think this thread is, "King of the Hill". . . . errr. . . . King of the JazzFanz Chess Game Thread?
My intentions and purposes in this thread are to outlive all the Kings, or at least have some fun with it. Enes is gone, OB is gone. . . . Until they work up the nerve to try again, and beat me again, I count them as "losers". I'm still here. I'm the winner. At that rate, you'll probably disappear, too. Maybe even Log.
So what that means is anyone who will still play me I should honor with a victory, somehow. . . . ha ha.
It would be amazing if I could somehow get past Log's blockade and do anything. . . . with this game.

It is possible that with this move, you did, after all, snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. . . . but then maybe you see something I don't see.

going through this, it looked to me like I missed the notation on your move 25 that it put me in check, no "+". Unless you can show me that wouldn't be right, I'm going to put the "+" on your Bg7.
So, anyway, I looked back at your move 25 and indeed you had it with the "+", so it was my omission to begin with. . . . fixed.
