Voting CLOSED: Rf2 Zwischenzug, Sugartits!

On the move we seem to have 100% consensus. For the the taunt it's a respectable 73% in favor of "Zwischenzug, Sugartits!"

Today's Suggested Moves have been posted, and the voting polls will open Wednesday @7PM EDT and close at Thursday 12AM EDT (Wednesday Night), in order to give time for enough deliberation before the votes are cast. Don't have a username/Id yet? Get one here! and take some credit for your contributions!

Remember to check back even if you've already cast your vote! .. there's still some disagreement between potential moves .. and analysis will most likely continue up until Sunday night when the polls close. It's also not too late to submit a vote for another move that has not been evaluated yet .. (although it looks like we have most of the best move options available, people can always miss things).

Use the following tags to help suggest moves, and remember if you want to throw up an example speculative board in the discussion, please refer to the Edit Guide on how to properly format it.

Suggested Move Summary

Suggested Position Suggested Move: cxd6

Suggested Position Suggested Move: Nc5!

Suggested Position Suggested Move: !

cxd6

• The obvious option. What else is there to say? MalteseFalcon 11:17, 2 August 2006 (PDT)
• Maybe not so obvious after all :-P PTWhipplebang 12:18, 2 August 2006 (PDT)
  • I never said it was the best move :) MalteseFalcon 12:20, 2 August 2006 (PDT)
    • But definitely the most obvious.Kidnapped
      • Very true. I stand corrected. PTWhipplebang 13:00, 2 August 2006 (PDT)

Qxd6

• I like this move. It accomplishes the same thing as cxd6, but doesn't stick that pawn into a faceoff with Ze's pawn. CtrlBurn 13:31, 2 August 2006 (PDT)
  • It also gives Ze the c4 pawn and is in all ways inferior to "Rf2!". arc

Rf2!
