Today I played a couple games of chess, but in this particular game I thought I was playing a computer for awhile until black blundered its queen after I blundered one of my knights, but then I was about to take the queen on f7 on the next move when all sudden black resigned! He just couldn't process it in time that's why he made a major mistake, and that cost him the game while I was trying really hard not to blunder my queen? But blundering my knight paid off in the endgame

Tonight I played someone in an online chess tournament, and won with some nice moves since white decided to castle to avoid my queen instead of moving white's queen that my bishop captured on the next move, but it wasn't long till white blundered again, and then resigned. I give white credit for not resigning when he blundered his queen, even if the endgame seemed obvious then, but you should never blunder your queen because your opponent will take advantage of that, and you'

Today I figured that gibberish from that cipher wasn't just gibberish because I gave some more thought to the possibility of why someone would do that even if it was part of an ARG and took it to another level by translating the gibberish none-sense into a true sentence: Quite so, now I am about to pay for the two of you or risk the truth that you are so silly that each zombie may destroy you promptly or to sit down, or to deal with the jolly heat, you are tanned to heal, for

I recently solved a cipher that turned out to be a Homophonic cipher, but instead of using the backdoor, I found the encryption key was in the video description along with the cipher. I then applied it to it and the message appeared to be a Vigenere cipher that I solved without the key, but it still looked like some non-sense words, however the encryption key was the word; "talk" suggesting that its nothing but gibberish since talk is a way to describe something that is, sinc

Tonight after losing a game of chess against Bob the Cat from RuneScape Old School, I played it in a rematch and won with some moves that would have been a bit tricky for the average player. I had to really think about where I was moving my pieces, and why in order to gain a tactical advantage over this hard to beat AI that was doing everything it could to destroy me, but I won against it regardless! So now I can say that with some confidence, but if I played it again I would

Tonight after losing two games in a row and one to the computer I tried improving by not blundering so much away, and won this online tournament with an impressive checkmate: Queen takes bishop to king, checkmate!

Tonight I played a challenging game of chess in an online tournament that was a bit hard, but I was careful not to blunder my queen, and avoiding white's queen which they blundered eventually when there wasn't any way to checkmate my king, and white resigned from the game because the winner seemed obvious in that point in the game if it would of continued?

Today I played someone again in an online chess tournament who blundered their queen which gave me an advantage, since I still had mine but instead used one of my bishops to deliver a checkmate in the endgame, which is rare! Upon that I finally achieved the "Killer Bishop Award" that I wanted for sometime, but its not that easy to come by and I did have the choice of using my queen instead, but would of regret it than since I've wanted this other award really bad, and saw an

Tonight I was playing chess against an Intermediate chess engine that is known for being a strong player, only after losing a game I won a game with some nice moves like tricking the computer into giving up its rook and knight when putting the king in check after promoting a queen. But highlight of the game might have been the way I checkmated black's king because I also used my last bishop to protect my newly promoted queen, while forcing black's king to distant itself from

Tonight I played someone in an online chess tournament and won with some nice moves like using my bishop to put white's king in check, so I could capture white's last rook. I already captured the other one using one of my knights, and after capturing most of my opponent's pieces he resigned after blundering his bishop. This was a good game, but the best is yet to come...

I've been studying encryption for a long time, but have also done a lot of code-breaking through frequency analyses and just simply running it by the computer, but all the same. I've gone over a dozen different puzzles that involved this, and the result usually that I solved it but does this mean that encryption is failing? I think it depends on the encryption, but most of the time people can figure it out if they're good at it, or they had some help? But nowadays people are

Tonight I played the Edith bot as black this time just to see if I could win with the black pieces, but instead I took the bait and fell for my own trap when I captured white's knight, and then a pawn checkmated my king, since in that point of the game it was compromised with no other escape, or option since I walked into this trap? My trap doesn't usually involve using bait but it worked for the computer!

Tonight I played three games, and had one draw out of two wins including this game that I played against a very strong opponent who was doing everything they could to checkmate me, but I defended to the point where the odds were on my side this time, and my opponent resigned! This was a good game and there's a reason why they call me the Puzzle Man or if you prefer Jigsaw Phantom, because I am a master of puzzles, and one day a master of chess.

Tonight I played someone new in an online chess tournament, but they managed to checkmate me, and I also blundered my queen before that,...
