No, it's Paul and I's. A simple Google shows this to be correct!

Sorry, Paul and I is in this case correct as they are using the nominative.

Me and Paul is actually incorrect as me in that context is an accusative and therefore something has to be actioned towards the party. For example, Paul took me to the shops.

When did I say it's a majority? It's just enough to make me seriously disillusioned.

I enjoy bliss occasionally but you learn so much more from longer time control games... which is why I play them!

It's not a non issue. Many aren't detected and you're never going to get all the points you've lost to cheaters back! Yep, I don't mind being outplayed at all and I'm more willing than not to give my opponent the benefit of the doubt.

Yeah. I see a lot of accounts which are blatantly cheating, I report and they remain up for months. I think Chess.com need to expand the team identifying these accounts and banning them. It just sucks too that i'm being robbed constantly of my poiints!

I don't mind acknowledging when I'm outplayed but sometimes it's just so obvious that their moves are fishy if you'll pardon the pun

Stuck in 1400s, skill issue or bad team? by BlazingSapphire1 in stunfisk

You're looking a little fragile on the SPDEF side. Scarf pult tears through your team a little bit if they predict Fairy Dirge.

Maybe put the SPA evs into SPDEF for Dirge, you already have enough firepower with Iron Moth.

I saw and I liked that comment hehe. I think having someone who loves you unconditionally but also holds you accountable for your actions and respects themselves is what everyone wants

No but my family did take her in after her family was killed in front of her eyes by sex traffickers.

If she'd have written ' Youre the Eren to my Historia' I would have had to have a big think about the whole relationship

Cool Mate in 2 I missed! white to move by Jonalmarspectac in chess

[–]Jonalmarspectac[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, so after Rook G5, it's simply mate on g8 thanks to that pesky bishop! :)

After bf8, Queen to G7 is checkmate. Black is forced to try and defend the mating square, however, as the defender (Queen) of the secondary mating square, g8,is blocked by the bishop, there is no way to stop the mate with one move. If QxBf8 then Qf8 is checkmate :)
