Well thats the name of the game, whoever makes the first mistake when it comes to good players loses. Especially if that mistake results in a queen being taken while the enemy still has their own. That isn't to say that losing a queen cant be useful, though it only should be done if it kills another queen or secures a checkmate.

Battleships Hurl insults from behind thick walls, Destroyers beat up small children, Carriers stay back in the kitchen, and Cruisers are a bunch of tryhards who pretend to be loners.

No i had to sacrifice the queen there wasn't another way that could change it for me. Had i keep the queen like moving to A4 instead of D4 i be at a greater risk and nothing to defend myself.

You should have used your queen to take the Bishop on G4, then you would not only have taken something before you lost the queen but you would have given yourself a bit of breathing room as the knight would be pressuring your king less and it could lead to you taking a few more of my pieces and blunting the attack. Still, at that point you were going to have a very hard fought battle at best.

If I may say, as an observer of you both for many years games, the following.

PirateJoe plays many forum games, and is able to learn and excell quickly.

WS is a slow starter, but a force to be reckoned with over time over repeated games.

Addit:

Anyone know a simple coop boardgame? Pandemic is a little more than I had in mind.

I may have lost this match, but it doesn't mean I'll lose the next game. I was trying to play black while as white so i can get idea of your play style. While i did my best to observe your style, I did my best to overcome your attacks. I want to see how far you can go and you did pretty well. I had to use whatever i got at the moment.

Had you not move your Queen to E4 when you did, would've made a difference for me.
