An Interesting Chess Game

Post by plummy » Sun Dec 28, 2014 3:41 pm

This was from a 5 minute blitz game I played on Chess.com earlier today. I made several mistakes and inaccuracies (2 inaccuracies, 6 mistakes, 0 blunders), but always maintained a positional advantage.

Last few moves were heavily blitzed with less than 10 seconds remaining each.

(Maybe ask the forum administrator to enable embedding via BBCode?)

Unfortunately, I've run into the same problem that we experienced with YouTube embedding last month. The Semholy forums are hosted via encrypted HTTPS not unencrypted HTTP. Chrome and many other browsers will not display embedded iframes that do not match the protocol of the main page. Unfortunately, chess.com does not support HTTPS at this time, and there's no way to avoid a mismatch until they do, so I'm afraid we're up a creek without a paddle. Sorry, plummy.

I could install a different PGN replay widgets if there's any chess interest beyond you around here.

That would be awesome. I know a lot of people in the lux community play. Unfortunately some of those people don't come on much anymore or don't use the forums... (Manimal, N00less, animechess). I think it could still be useful though. I know pickle, Matt, Kjos, jazz, gyp, and fast cache play too. If it's not much work I'm all for it.
