Eric suggested that we could play chess, and a ribbon could be awarded for beating me. I don't know whether he was being entirely serious, but I liked the idea - so why not ? Here is my Chess.com profile. If you'd like to challenge me to a game, simply do the following: 1) Register a Chess.com account (if you already have one, skip to step 2); 2) Post your Chess.com username in this topic (so that we know it's you); 3) Challenge me to a game on Chess.com. I'll require you to choose the standard starting position, but other than that, you can choose your preferred game options. Then, we play a game, and the prize for defeating me is an Orange Ribbon! This challenge will remain open until the ribbon is awarded; that is, until somebody defeats me. Also, I will award 50 posts as a prize for drawing. Good luck! Edited by CJ, Nov 19 2012, 12:48 AM.

What if more than one do it? Or is it a race to see who can do it first? |

It's a race to do it first. I think what I'll say is, should somebody defeat me and win the ribbon, any other games that are in progress at the time continue (and, if I lose, the winner also gets a ribbon). However, I'll stop accepting challenges for new games (anyone who wants to set up a game with me at that point could do so, but it would then be just for fun and outside the scope of this contest). @Katie: I've invited you to a game now

Like you couldn't even imagine. If you've fallen a bit rusty I'll stand a good chance. |

I'd like to hear the results if you can publicize them. Otherwise I'm perplexed... |

Nope. I'm currently waiting on both PL and HoD to make their moves. |

You certainly do. Unfortunately, Chess.com isn't loading right now; I'm just getting "Bad Gateway" messages .Hopefully, it'll be fixed soon. |

You did keep me on my toes, though . Looks like you could win more than just a ribbon too, since my rating is probably inflated higher than it should be! |

Well done - it gives you 50 posts, not to mention a nice boost in ratings .

So, no one officially beat you yet? I won't even bother. I'm awful at chess.

I have been beaten before, but not by anyone from here, I don't think. I believe that HoD *can* beat me, but so far, the best she's managed is a draw. |
