Write your reply.

assistant: Last summer I was playing for the Chess echo in an inter-echo match between
it and the Chess Tourney Echo. I was paired in six games and had won five
of them (a couple by forfeit) when the BBS I was using crashed. My
remaining game, with Ken Stevens, was never finished.
Well, my BBS is back up now (finally). I'm not looking to continue the game
in question--I assume that I was forfeited long ago, and that's fine--but I
was curious to know how the match turned out. Can anyone tell me?
My apologies for having been unable to finish the game.

It is a normal procedure that you play two games at once.
One with Black and the other with White. The preferred
notation is Algebraic either short or long. Periodically
the moderator posts some FAQ's about the echo.

Not at this time, Donavan -- at least -I- don't have anything planned.
Keeping up with the last one took a bit more of my time than I had originally
thought, and time isn't something I have a lot of right now.
However, that's not to say that organizing and running another tournament is
not out of the question,  if somebody else is willing to take charge of it.

Yes, better format is Nf6-d5 (so you can see in the list which piece was
moved)... except for pawn moves there is generally a leading letter for the
piece that was moved... the 'K' is reserved for the King, so Knight gets 'N'.

assistant: Well i'm 18, i live in Mississaug, Ontario.  Which is in Canada.  I don't
speak any Spanish but you seem to have your English down so that's good.  I
also never played chess on message bases before, but i hoping that someone
would tell us how to play.
     The way that i think it is done, from reading the previous games. Is
that One player moves and writes it down in the message base and logsoff and
waits for player number 2 to respond and make his move.  And everyday the
game continues on the message base until there is a winner.
     Can some of the more experienced players tell me if i'm on the right
track?
     Anyways if someone wants to get a game going give me a shout.

assistant: q6d is my move! I pulled a no brainer when i moved my night!  For some
unknow reason i didn't even see your bishop.  Hopefuly this move will
be correct.  I am moving my queen right in front of my king.  This is
putting you in check.  I do have some sort of a sheet I down loaded it
has a mapped out board and a whole right up.
        I think that after each move we should ask or tell each other
some things.  We do live QUITE far apart and surely there is something
else also to talk about beside this chess game?
        I am 15 and like i said i live near regina sask.  I think you
said you live in pitsburg. What state is that in?
