Talon...would you care to match wits with me? 


Sure, on PHP, Practice or Official?

Although I'm currently playing 6 people, I think thats the max amount of matches you can play, so you may have to wait until I finish one.

Not just that, your last move with the pawn as well, if thats the first stage of what I think it is then your a lot better than I gave you credit for.
