Woohoo! I got triple goose egg at the club Tuesday (PARMA AUG. 30). I felt like I played poorly in 2 of my games. I played well in the other game but messed up and let my opponent get in my position with a N and Q. I was up a piece and should have sac’d my R and started my attack first. My provisional rating took a nice dive:

R: 1426P8 ->1302P11 Q: 1281P8 ->1182P11

Oh well……

  • What's triple goose egg? 3 x 0?

  • A goose egg is a loss (because a 0 looks like a goose egg), so Phorku is saying he lost all 3 of his matches on Tuesday. He'll get them next time.
    I like the format change by the way.
