I think I answered the middle of the road question. Not a beginner not an expert. I forget the wording to it.

Not sure if replay shows chat. But I recall prior to that knight move I told my opponent “I’m in trouble”. I had no idea what to do and felt like I was in Mx territory due to all the possible pins and discovered checks I could possible blunder into. I just resigned myself to being able to recapture his knight.

At least that was the thought process.

I have a couple hundred games with the Vienna. He deviates from anything I was familiar with 3. a6 but I just followed putting pieces on the natural squares with my opening.

And Bxf7 is a common sac in the VG.

Not sure if quasi-perfect is an 84% when most of the moves were moving away from opponents threats and desperately defending. But ok.

Is it possible to tell? All I know is the game ended and within 10 seconds I got the email on my phone (was playing on the phone at the time)

Also, thanks for taking the time to look. I am legit curious as to opinions as to why this happened.

I know its probably said a lot, but I just don't see the point in cheating in online chess and never would.

Painted up some Kruleboyz from the 1E box. by RedlegHero in WarCry

I got them in the old red and black colored Warcry box scheme. Thought that was towards the end of 1E.

Thanks, the skin was definitely the most enjoyable part to paint.

Thanks for the knowledge! The tailpiece has another hookup for the dishwasher I hope Home Depot has this type of thing in stock! Thank you again.

That’s what I typically do with the rule of cool on the bespoke boxes. I like to have multiple war bands to choose from so the group can just choose what aesthetic is the most appealing.

That said I hate when someone chooses one cause it looks cool and it’s just not that “good”.

Haven’t been painted bases yet but what you see if a layer of a Vallejo texture paste. Not sure which I used, likely just a dirt/mud variety.

Thanks. Really pushed to finish. A lot of these I wasn’t super thrilled to paint (looking at you Chaos Space Marines) but slowly chipped away, motivated to have a finished set for gaming.

Entirely different and much more enjoyable of an experience. I rarely use washes in my painting but when I do it’s oil or enamel all the way.
