Most of these are pretty common opening trap themes anyway.

KingDan, is there any chance, that you are an IM? I know one guy named Dan (Daniel), who is an IM and that nickname would suit him SO well

Yeah, Tim, I recognized the Nxe5, Bxd1 Bxf7+ Ke7 Nd5 mate like I'm guessing most other posters did too. I also might not have gotten the ...Nd4! one in the Smith Morra if it weren't for the fact that I play the Smith Morra and have fallen into that trap (more than once in bullet, sadly).

Just got this on ICC... try it without a board!

1. d4 Nf6 2. Bg5 c5 3. dxc5 Na6 4. Nc3 Nxc5 5. Nf3 Qa5 6. Bd2 Qb6 7. g4 Nxg4 8. Nd5

What's the best move for Black?

My opponent's response to this move:

Spoiler:
Your opponent offers you a draw.
Use "draw" to accept. The offer is valid until you make a move.
Your opponent requests adjournment (for continuation later).
Use "adjourn" to adjourn. The offer is valid until you make a move.

arrgh i'm so tilted right now from this. got 17/20 but made really dumb errors on the ones I got wrong (11, 13, 15). granted it's 7 am and I haven't gone to sleep yet, so maybe I'm a little tired.

Spoiler:
on 11 I thought I could play Qd5 attacking e5 and h1, even tho black's d pawn is still on d7. On 13 I thought I could play Nxd6, not sure that's even any good because he can just play Qe2. On 15 I thought h3 was just hanging because I figured white's bishop was on c4. Could've seen that wasn't the case just by looking at the notation.
arrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh fml this is way more tilting than poker
