15.Nd4

If you are going for a knight's tour, you have made a good start.

Re: Chess game - Euler (W) vs White (B)

No worries.  big_smile  I finally feel vindicated on some small level becuase half the time I have been following this match, I've had a different board in play. Getting a few of the obvious moves makes me feel like the whole excel thing tongue wasn't a bad idea.

I thought you should have moved your knight back to the starting position instead of Nd7 though. You might have to gamble a bit more now.

Re: Chess game - Euler (W) vs White (B)

I thought you were going to take the bishop with the knight, lose it to his pawn, then pull the e5 to threaten his other knight, causing his pawn to take it, then follow up with the bishhop to Bxc6, so he would have to move his rook.

My one eyed hobo dosen't have very good depth percetion though.  :laugh:

The one eyed hobo thinks Bill will take the pawn with his bishop though, and it looks like Euler may get the other one with the king...
