Mario Boards Chess Tournament 2.0

but that was one move too many ;)
 
Yeah.

And I was making a huge gambit doing everything I could to advance that pawn towards your king, if I pulled that off that'd have been glorious, but good game anyway.
 
Actually, after Nabber did 14. ...hxg5, instead of the bishop capture, it should been 15. hxg5. Not only is the pawn TRIPLE DEFENDED, but Nabber's H-file was opened, incredibly weakening Nabber's structure.

Icemario's gambit was FANTASTIC, if only he did ONE THING DIFFERENTLY: After 22. ...Nxe2??, 23. Bxf5!, capturing the Rook. If the bishop was captured or the knight moved, or the queen moved (if king moved, it would've had the same effect), 24. Nxd6!! would've resulted in Icemario capturing Nabber's queen. So yeah, really good principles, just that one slip up right there costed you Icemario.

does this really count because i wasn't able to get online
 
I'd rather have another game where I win or lose through checkmate than have a game where I win or lose on time.

I'm completely willing to have another game with Yoshiwaker that hopefully won't end on time.
 
Nabber and I might end up with a stalemate. On turn 38 atm. :P

Yeah, it was an ugly game. You made it kind of stressful for yourself by ignoring those g-h pawns
