Subject: Sanny's Engine... something good, something weird.
Today I decided to play your engine. Within a dozen moves, I easily won
a knight. Then my computer crashed. When I came back my game was still
there. Very cool!

Well, I exchanged some pieces to head towards a won endgame, when my
browser crashed. Sigh. I came back to your site and it again plopped me
down into a game... but it wasn't my game. Instead, this is some
pathetic game where White is down a rook!!

Can you fix things so I can return to my original game, or at least
start a new game? I have no intention of giving your program rook odds,
even though I still might win.

Luxureh! Since I won the worthless $1-prize for July, the system
hasn't accepted my password...

Giving it rooks odds again, I see! :)

Would you please stop commandeering my games in
progress! This time, I was only down a Rook, and had
lasted well over ten moves (unlike my typical games,
which have me checkmated by then).

Your action caused me to be teleported into an endgame
where I was winning, yes, but I HATE endgames, so I just
resigned on the spot. Thanks for nothing, pal. I hope
you're satisfied.
