If it did I think I’d be conceding. My battle in SZ33 was quite critical.

I think this game has eluded me. I concede.

BTW, I don’t really think the attack on SZ33 was that much of a Hail Mary. It was about a 50/50 battle IIRC, which just didn’t come off. I don’t really think there was any way of me winning the game without succeeding in taking down the TT(s) in that attack though.
