A bit trolling for fun

You should do a trolling montage and upload it to youtube!
Oh, my goodness. I needed a laugh. Thanks for that.
@MorningCoffee

That's the funniest thing I've seen in a while. That's some exceptional trolling and against-odds playing.

Development? Tempo? King safety? Never heard of them!

Queen? That's worth 3 points right?
The best counter-trolling response is to play ultra solid even with +5 or just to make moves to win on time. Some players play the opening 1...f6 and 2...Kf7 but I never seen anything like this.
@roni_chessman @inversed @shymax and everyone else
glad you enjoyed it :)
also , to point out its on 3+1 so its not any kind of flagging attempt, just trying to outplay the opponents from these... beautiful positions!
PS: I have a friend who likes chess very much, but he sucks(this is partly a joke, he is actually decent now but he always says that he sucks) and there was a time when he was begging me to have a match. But a regular match would have no point so we decided to give him queen odds. The match was pretty close. I started with 2 wins and a miraculous escape with a draw but then he evolved. He started saccing pawns to open lines and the power of the queen was overwhelming. But then I evolved too, found some pretty decent setups and started winning again. The match was close but I think it never finished. In the end I had gained some experience on some defensive techniques and he improved by about 100 fide rating points only with testing his material advantage technique against a stronger opponent!
@Asado #6 - I think this f3/Kf2 and f6/Kf7 stuff is part of an old hoax on ICC / Internet Chess Club - what was at one time the top chess site.

There was a player who created some accounts on there and somehow managed to convince people he was Fischer. This was before Fischer was shown to be in Iceland/Japan and so there was still a sort of super-human allure to him for alot of players. He would come on the site, play these junky moves and crush top GMs. Nigel Short for instance was 100% convinced it was Fischer.

Of course he was just cheating, but he was a smart cheater and would occasionally play on his own and also mix up his move times creating a modestly believably image of just some like 3800 strength player toying around with GMs like a cat playing with a mouse.

Following that there was a huge surge in f3/Kf2 and f6/Kf7 as people saw all these top players get crushed by it convincing plenty of folks that maybe there must be something to it after all because everybody obsesses over openings after all. And in any case if it works against Nigel Short how can it not work against your opponents? ;-)
