ha ha, i read your last comment joe, it is really a joke question, asking 2 chess players in mid-battle, 'so, who's winning' :)

joe, lol, i'm trying to get game courier to understand this is a draw, i tired 'draw' and then '//draw' but got messages to go back and refresh page, then i tried 'draw // draw' lol, but it seems to think it is your move now :) i can't see anything whatsoever in the guide about 'draws'?! so i dunno, any ideas? your move btw :) just noticed also, i guess it is indicating to you that it is your 49th move to play, so it has accepted my 47th 'draw' as a move, and your 48th and my 48th moves, non moves again, 'draw' moves, as actual moves. hey, this is kinda fun lol :)

oh i have just noticed now last two comments, thanks for your views David. Was it interesting, he he, i really felt like i was fighting to save the game from the moment i took Joe's general with my knight (move 15). Not that i think the knight is better than general, but i gave up ok/good position (i think) for material advantage, and that really isn't my style, and i'll never do that again lol. i hated the game from that point on :) Yeah, i needed to swap elephants, your right. Did i have a chance? :) ... i really can't remember now, i think i was always wanting to swap pieces from move 15 :) And Joe, I think you might be a little paranoid about the idea of MS being very drawish, i am sure plenty of games would end in a result other than draw. Anyway, i guess it was a fun game :) i just couldn't see a win for black (me) in the end, too dangerous to do anything, those pawns coming down at me :)

it is no doubt interesting giving the fers/general the movement of king and elephant the extra 1 step diagonal move, i guess it all depends on position of course, just like in chess when sometimes the knight is better than the bishop, and other times the bishop is better. i do agree, the general seems much better than the elephant ... seeing this game is new, and has not been played much, the more times it is played, things will become clearer .. pretty interesting game indeed.

i don't think you blundered allowing my knight to take your general, if i had the move over i would take the elephant with the knight, and disrupt your pawns. i think i blundered with that move, because you gained in development, with the rook taking my knight, your rook moved to the center, and you also gained space. after this move, i feel your game was much better, even if down material.
