Well done all.
I dropped the ball timing out in one of the games but squared the ledger in the other.

Fantastic - outranked but not outplayed!
I am also selfishly relieved about the overall match result as I really should have fought on in one of my drawn games and not accepted the draw offer but I was struggling with work/life at the time!

I think I timed out in both my games! Sorry team. Hoping for 3 day matches next time!

I timed out of one of my matches. Was a really exciting one too.

I would have timed out - it is so easy to do in a 1 day game - but luckily I got a 'vacation'. I won a game completely against the run of play, the opponent must have thought he had it in the bag and overlooked my sneaky checkmate attack when two pieces down.
The other game is still going, the last one I think but it is looking optimistic - anyway we won, yay!
I've pretty much disengaged from chess.com. I was doing terribly, losing all my games, so I resigned all my tournament games and quit, this match is all I have going now, anyway it has gone quite well so I'm pleased, going out on a plus as it were.
I was spreading myself too thin, but I'll make myself available for big footy matches if required. I'm sure the Picts will be up for a rematch, though I don't have any involvement with them now (only just saw your old message, Chipmunk). Other than that I've retired! But I can manage an occasional match, with time to give it my full attention.
2 or 3 day games please, I've stopped my paid membership of chess.com, and I'm guaranteed to time out in one day games!
