I have no idea what I am doing.

One of the beginnings of wisdom.

I don't know what I was expecting. I was being mostly facetious (thanks, Word of the Day!), with "mostly" in this case meaning "it would have been fun to create a long comment chain consisting of only algebraic notation."

You're welcome.

Haha, as much as I would like to save face for my 'cute' little thank you note entirely backfiring, I do not play chess. I famously do not play chess. Its intricacies are beyond my mental ability, I assure you, so if you were to actually attempt a game at me, it would be rather short and rather unsatisfying indeed.

At least, I assume that's what you're going for! I don't even know! That's how much I don't know things!

But regardless, thank you very much for the fave. That's all I wanted to say. =)

Oh, you wanted an introspective reflection on the nature of "author" and "reader?" That comes with the middlegame.

Dear Radio414,

Thank you for playing a game of Chess with me. I'm glad we both had fun, no matter who the winner was, and I hope that we can sit down for another game sometime soon.

(Thanks for the fave!)
