	Messages 1 2 3  I won, I won! by Ken Dunn on 29 March 2011 8:45pm   Tonight at 8.40pm I beat the computer at chess! The Big Bang Board Games version. I have been trying to beat it at chess for at least 5 years.   Re: I won, I won! by ev on 29 March 2011 8:58pm   Congrats.. that's an idea, by the way.. maybe we should start an online games tournament here between Palin's travels members.. has that idea come up before?   Re: I won, I won! by suzulu on 30 March 2011 12:37am   Congratulations! Time for celebration!   Re: I won, I won! by TERRY S on 30 March 2011 3:42pm   Oh, well done Ken! Try this simple thing! All you have to do is click the ball to change the colour. Nothing simpler. If you don't like it fine, but at least give it a go. I managed five. http://thedogpaddler.com/RandomUploads/Ball/ball.htm   Re: I won, I won! by Ken Dunn on 5 April 2011 8:27pm   I've just done it again! It's funny how, once you've beaten the computer at chess, your confidence rises and it becomes easier to keep control of the game.   Re: I won, I won! by Ken Dunn on 8 October 2011 3:57am   That's the third time I've beaten the computer at chess and at 4am I'm a bit more pleased than usual!   Re: I won, I won! by Ken Dunn on 28 December 2011 12:07am   I've done it again! That's 4 times this year. Once I got the upper hand in that last game I was very careful not to lose control so the win came eventually.   Re: I won, I won! by Ken Dunn on 6 January 2012 9:55pm   And again! With a bit more spare time on my hands this year I may be able to beat it 6 times!   Re: I won, I won! by Ken Dunn on 6 January 2012 9:59pm   I tried your ball game TERRY and it took me about 3 minutes to get one so I gave up.   Re: I won, I won! by kazzzz on 6 January 2012 11:14pm   I've never won a game of chess in my life, my daughter beats me every single time!   Messages 1 2 3
