@simon33 its fine. I get the challenges and I do think your position was quite a difficult one now. And I don’t mind if my opponent needs a pause from time to time, but I did want the game to still proceed ( struggle to keep track of the game when there are repeated long delays) which is why I was bumping. It was a challenging game for me and quite fun. I think you are right though that the opening in Korea was key to turning it in my favour.
