> resign.

First of all, thanks for those beautiful two games, they were both my first correspondence chess games, i will remember them for a long time and i enjoyed analyzing & playing them -and the occuring technical very difficult positions- very much! :-)
Secondly, if you allow me to say that, Mocha, there is no need to feel sorrow! Training to attend in correspondence chess tournaments in the future, i took especially these two games out of the 10 i started here very seriously and spent >90% of my thinking time with them at the time they were both decided, which is -as you know- already a few moves back. ;-)
Thirdly, if you want, we can exchange a few insights on diverse positions of the games.
Fourthly, have fun whatever yo do!

> the next time we play again, set some rules to follow.

Well, it can't be stricter time controls as you took more time than me (if you want i will carefully add them together, but pointing to your 2week-move time for Rc1 or nearly 1week per move(!) for the Shvesnikov-endgame should already give you the right direction...), it also can't be no takebakes to the one you took in the Ruy Lopez which i kindly -despite having already calculated Qb5- accepted because i'm interested in chess, what special rules do you have in mind that were not covered here by implication and human thinking/good manners?
