Any one want to play me? (Lanced - Perseus)
I would like to try 1.d4 because I always play 1.e4. More than that I have never played a corispondence game so I just want to play. 1.d4. Anyone is welcome to play me, and please do.
and offtopic I tried to make the move 1.d4 bold so that people would know what I chose and if it dosn't show up bold will someone plaese explain how to do it.

Though I'm unable to see the first post (because of a persistent little bug), I'll be happy to play. Especially since I just concluded 2 other correspondence games by email, losing both actually.
Since it's your thread, unless you prefer otherwise, I'll take the black pieces. Good luck and... your move.

1.d4.
And could you please tell me how to make this move bold? If I can I would always like to put the moves I play in bold like ive seen on other threads.

That's reasonably simple. You select the text you want in bold print and click the B icon above your text window. Or, as I do, select the text, press on your keyboard CTRL and B (note: hold CTRL down while pressing B  ).
1. d4 Nf6

Well, you need to use the button (on the forum) that puts it in bold.
1. d4 Nf6 2. Nf3 e6

3. c4 all right ill try to see if this works, if it dosn't this is my move unless you can see the one that I wrote in invisible font and you'd better pray that you can't because in my opionion it's extreamly strong. on sober note why do you post our moves cumitively in your replys? just curious. And also I think I will have to go soon and turn this into a real coorispondence game. Ill be back sometime tommarrow hopefully.

Well, something went wrong, I'll edit it for you so it'll be bold.
Eh, something coming from 1. d4 can't be ' extremely strong' (tough talk for someone who just lost 2 games on the black side of a Trompowsky).
I like having the entire movelist in my posts if that is alright with you. In fact, I suggested it in the sticky on top of this forum section. That way someone who wants to have a look at a correspondence game going on in here, they wouldn't have to 'assemble' the movelist by going through all the posts  . At any rate, the QID it is then:
1. d4 Nf6 2. Nf3 e6 3. c4 b6

something coming from 1.d4 cant be extremely strong? sounds like your an e4 player. Im not sure if you got if I was joking or not, maby I should use the stuff at the bottom.  . I almost always play 1.e4 myself and thats exactly why I played 1.d4, not a better time to train than in a traning game. 4. Nc3
oh an that is ok with me I just was curious.

Well, if you ask me, d4 and e4 are equal. Different, but equal.
1. d4 Nf6 2. Nf3 e6 3. c4 b6 4. Nc3 Bb7
