also i'm not sure how feasible real time gaming is right now. we unfortunately had to put our dog down quite suddenly a few days ago and my mind isn't 100% able to focus on gaming for long periods lol. perhaps in a few weeks though if we reach end of time limit ill concede anyways to you since delays likely my fault |

Yeah just SM this turn. That's correct. I was just thinking, is there perhaps an hour or so in a week that works well for you for us to both be on at the same time to get through multiple moves at once to speed the game along? I've been finding it a bit of a struggle juggling four games at once, but doing multiple moves in quick succession helps to cut down on the mental space occupying the brain |
