Best Out Of 39

Game Of The Week


This week’s game comes from the June Mating Game winner, Jeff Fox.  The first time I played Jeff in a rated game was in this tournament.  However, back then [June 16,1999] it was called the June Borborgyms.

I won that first fateful meeting, and Jeff immediately asked for 2 out of 3.

We have continued the struggle for supremacy for 7 years and over the course of 38 rated games now.  But with Jeff’s latest win, we are tied once again (19-19).  So, after losing this game, I immediately asked him for…

Comments from the Guest Book


Martin Deschner, May 25th:

In the past, I was a lot like Paul Anderson's comment.  I would replay my wins over and over.  I would tear up my losses' scoresheet.  Not a good learning experience.

Dad, June 21st:

I think our games are better now. That was a pretty sloppy game. Good luck in your tournament.


New Photos


A while back, Renae Delaware asked if I wanted some photos from Territory Days using the private message feature in the guest book.  I deleted that message last week thinking I would take the secret message to my grave, but would you believe it, she sent them.

Now we just have to teach her how to use the image resize feature before emailing them.  You can view the photos by clicking the Photos link in the menu bar to the left.
