Neo is still dissapeared

Is the chess server down? I'm trying to connect but I don't get an answer.

Palavev, any idea?

Listen, first being 1 hour late for the game is not OK. The server is not down I have been on it for the last hour waiting. If you want to still play the game let's play on Yahoo then in the Weasel Way Room. My handle is Palaveev. I will only wait 10 minutes there.

Ok. It's my fault. In fact I was 40 minutes late, but you're right. I sent a message to you this afternoon saying that I was gonna be late, but anyway, I concur it's not an acceptable behaviour.

If you agree, the game is yours in order to keep the tournament going.

OK. So forget this thing above (we were posting together) and let's play tomorrow at 12:00 Ninja time. See you there.

I am using my office laptop and my work internet connection. There must be a firewall because I cannot logged into either the yahoo server or the chessbase server. My apologies to Palaveev and to you, ninja guys, but I cannot play. The game is your Palaveev, I ask you to forgive me for my behaviour. I'm terribly sorry, sincerely, I didn't mean it. I've always been on time for the games with one exception, due to a misunderstanding.

aabear;palaveev 0-1

Hey! I have no interest in a result like that. I got a little upset at you being late but you appologized and I can't ask for more. Just let me know when we can play.

Just got home from the first day of a 5-day tournament I'm playing in Ghent.
Won one (against a 1331) and lost one (against a 2176), so not too bad a day.
Congratulations to Rimfaxe. I just went over the game. He played very well.
Round 7 will be a very exciting one.
Hope Palaveev and Aabear can get things sorted out.

And how did I play? Like a monkey...

Still, at least I didn't have a blunder, which is the most depressing way to lose. I'd like to take on Rimfaxe again sometime. It's good experience.
