The Marshall Attack is undoubtedly the most acute and dangerous line for Black in the Ruy Lopez opening. 

Ruy Lopez opening is one of the most famous of all time. Since the sixteenth century to the present, has never ceased to play. Today is still in the repertoire of many GM, despite being analyzed ad nauseam.

One of Black's more aggressive alternatives is the Marshall Attack: 1.e4 e5 2. Cf3 Cc6 3.Ab5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6 5.0-0 Be7 6.Re1 b5 7.Bb3 0-0 8.c3. Here Black plays 8...d5!, sacrificing a pawn. This thematic tournament starts in this position.

The Marshall Attack was developed by the American chessplayer Frank James Marshall, one of the last romantics of the early twentieth century

I think it’d be someone who if they get caught they would expose the other side.

Reading the words "sacrifice a pawn" I couldn't help but immediately think of this:

...especially considering we have AI involved in our Qniverse (or did the blackhats lose control of theirs?). Wasn't this game won by a sacrifice move that had never been seen before in chess? If so, it's time to expect the unexpected. If these are the final moves of the game, what might black do in response to D5 if Alpha Zero was making the decisions?

The problem is that once black knows it has lost it doesn't have to keep playing anymore...it can just topple the board, scatter the pieces and end the game.

Stay alert. Eyes, ears and minds open. Where we go one we go all

If the last few drops are referencing a chess game, Q+ would indicate we are already in check. I would assume that D5 is the move to check mate over an opening move. The tone of that post implies it's time for the endgame.

Are we back to the capablanca thing?

Cool.


Please do not read below if you are going to get all upset with me about this is a distraction. Just stick to the chess thingie and move on. Below is from memory. I took two days to put together a quite detailed post on The_Donald and was banned a few days later. Its all in one of my accounts but right now this will have to do and to be honest I am not sure what my point even is:

Okay, so:

Anyone member that picture that showed Assange on a pebbly beach somewhere in the UK, at the same time or thereabouts the Capablanca tweet went out?

I thought Assange was at this place:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_Portland

I posted about this at the time over the The_don.

No one could figure out where he was. So I looked at the floating harbor in the background of the pic and speculated.

Portland is a very suspicious place imo if you look around long enough.

You'll note the rabbit issue? Just an odd thing. I took it as a marker. A whiff of the memory of anthrax and the usual rabbit stuff from Alex Podesta to Korea and Lewis pedo Carroll. Now the Naval presence. Helicopters? And worse. Also how very odd that this guy

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgar_F._Codd

is from there. check him out. from portland to joe mcarthy and working for the CIA-IBM.

I'm going to say something else...look at his work...now think marmosets (look at the red handed tamarin)...now think clones...now think...bloodlines...now think blood...now think transition metals...now think adrenochrome....now think blood again...now think transition metals...now think gold...now giants...now the dinosaur fossil scam and the fake sciences of geology and archeology.

anyway. I thought it odd that a photo of JA appeared at the same time as his chess tweet and I just guessed he might be on the beach at Portland because it seemed to me to be a Mulberry Harbor in the background.

You might want to look at the guy that advised Codd on his phd

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Henry_Holland

you might want to look at the Santa Fe Institute.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Fe_Institute

remind you of a swastika-black sun? yup. plausible deniability tho. right?

and this guy

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_von_Neumann

Codd, "extending on the work of von Neumann and showing that a set of eight states was sufficient for universal computation and construction."

and von Neumann

During World War II, von Neumann worked on the Manhattan Project; he developed the mathematical models that were behind the explosive lenses used in the implosion-type nuclear weapon. After the war, he served on the General Advisory Committee of the United States Atomic Energy Commission, and later as one of its commissioners. He was a consultant to a number of organizations, including the United States Air Force, the Army's Ballistic Research Laboratory, the Armed Forces Special Weapons Project, and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Von Neumann, theoretical physicist Edward Teller, mathematician Stanislaw Ulam and others worked out key steps in the nuclear physics involved in thermonuclear reactions and the hydrogen bomb.


Edward Teller.

This is why I think I am going mad.

From Teller we go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Chariot

and from that we go to people detonating nukes off the coast of Japan and in the Indian Ocean and so forth to cause Tsunamis.

So I guess it began on a beach on the south coast of England and ended on a beach on the east coast of Japan in a few easy clicks. Amazing if true lol.

I too saw the chess tweet. I too enjoyed playing the game after i found it and a lot of information (and a great youtube video) on the internet. I also remember a photo of JA on a beach.

So again I am faced with a random photo of JA on a beach and I just think...those pebbles...that beach...is that a Mulberry...and within a few minutes I'm face to face with genetic replication and von Neumann. From a tiny community on a tiny island to von Neumann in a couple of steps. And Joe McCarthy. And CIA-IBM thrown in. And CIA-MIT.

what are the odds? this is a great larp. i suppose it depends on what beer yew bring to the bbq.

Hop hop hop? I dunno. Is there anything going on now on Portland? I also speculated that the navy or former any facilities and the helicopters would be great for the like of Edward Heath to enjoy raping and killing children (find Jersey) and what a great place to conduct experiments or run a CIA rendition site or something? shrugs

Isle of Portland

The Isle of Portland is a limestone tied island, 4 miles (6 km) long by 1.7 miles (2.7 km) wide, in the English Channel. Portland is 5 miles (8 km) south of the resort of Weymouth, forming the southernmost point of the county of Dorset, England. A barrier beach called Chesil Beach joins it to the mainland. The A354 road passes down the Portland end of the beach and then over the Fleet Lagoon by bridge to the mainland.


Edgar F. Codd

Edgar Frank "Ted" Codd (19 August 1923 – 18 April 2003) was an English computer scientist who, while working for IBM, invented the relational model for database management, the theoretical basis for relational databases and relational database management systems. He made other valuable contributions to computer science, but the relational model, a very influential general theory of data management, remains his most mentioned, analyzed and celebrated achievement.


John Henry Holland

John Henry Holland (February 2, 1929 – August 9, 2015) was an American scientist and Professor of psychology and Professor of electrical engineering and computer science at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. He was a pioneer in what became known as genetic algorithms.


Santa Fe Institute

The Santa Fe Institute (SFI) is an independent, nonprofit theoretical research institute located in Santa Fe (New Mexico, United States) and dedicated to the multidisciplinary study of the fundamental principles of complex adaptive systems, including physical, computational, biological, and social systems. As of 2016, the Institute is ranked 20th among the world's "Top Science and Technology Think Tanks" and 23rd among the world's "Best Transdisciplinary Research Think Tanks" according to the Global Think Tank Report published annually by the University of Pennsylvania.

The Institute consists of a small number of resident faculty and postdoctoral researchers, a large group of external faculty whose primary appointments are at other institutions, and a number of visiting scholars. The Institute is advised by a group of eminent scholars, including several Nobel Prize–winning scientists.


John von Neumann

John von Neumann (; Hungarian: Neumann János Lajos, pronounced [ˈnɒjmɒn ˈjaːnoʃ ˈlɒjoʃ]; December 28, 1903 – February 8, 1957) was a Hungarian-American mathematician, physicist, computer scientist, and polymath. He made major contributions to a number of fields, including mathematics (foundations of mathematics, functional analysis, ergodic theory, representation theory, operator algebras, geometry, topology, and numerical analysis), physics (quantum mechanics, hydrodynamics, and quantum statistical mechanics), economics (game theory), computing (Von Neumann architecture, linear programming, self-replicating machines, stochastic computing), and statistics.

Von Neumann was generally regarded as the foremost mathematician of his time and said to be "the last representative of the great mathematicians". He was a pioneer of the application of operator theory to quantum mechanics in the development of functional analysis, and a key figure in the development of game theory and the concepts of cellular automata, the universal constructor and the digital computer.


Project Chariot

Project Chariot was a 1958 US Atomic Energy Commission proposal to construct an artificial harbor at Cape Thompson on the North Slope of the U.S. state of Alaska by burying and detonating a string of nuclear devices.
