Voting CLOSED Until 7pm

Today's Suggested Moves have been posted, and the voting polls will open @7PM EDT and close at MIDNIGHT, 12am EDT, 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).

• (very) Rough draft of the Fabuloso Chess Edit Guide is now up and located here

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.

 <!-- ==Speculative Move== -->

 <!-- REMOVE THIS LINE TO INSERT BOARD

  REMOVE THIS LINE TO INSERT BOARD -->

 <!-- MAKE CERTAIN YOU ADD A COMMENT TO JUSTIFY THIS POSITION-->

{{clear}}

Just follow the instructions, and completely delete those lines .. and don't forget to replace 'Speculative Move' with the actual move name. Also bear in mind that anything after the clear tag won't be visible, so don't enter any text underneath it (unless you're adding another section)

• Cut and paste the following to vote - YOU GET ONLY ONE VOTE! You may change it, but note that if you vote on multiple moves, all your votes are void when they are tallied.

Please take the time to familiarize yourself with some common middlegame tactics as well.

Also, please don't be too hesitant to suggest your own move in this section. Just use * to begin a line and add your idea, even if you aren't familiar with notation, or don't feel comfortable updating the boards/suggestions yourself, there are plenty of us that will be more than willing to set them up for you (and keep everything organized) ßrigade^rant

• Argh! Fabulosos! Did we discuss this situation as a possible response to our last move? Jes5199 11:32, 13 July 2006 (PDT)
  • nope. Why? Well, cause it's a far less than optimal move for Ze. There are multiple good responses here, all of which allow us to NOT lose the pawn that Ze's correct move would have won for him. Kingpatzer 12:23, 13 July 2006 (PDT)

Just throwing it out there for group dissection. Exerts pressure on diagonal, covers e7(13. Ne7+....) and saves Queen for now.
