  This probably won't make you feel better but you could have taken it with your rook a few moves ago. I thought I had thrown the game. Not great chess all round really

  Have you tried harvesting some good mold off a different salami? When i made some i had good results buying a posh salami from somewhere, skinning it and then putting the skin and mold in warm suggar solution, leaving it for a bit, then spraying it over the salami.

  Then once you have it around, i didnt have to do it again, as my wine cooler / drying chamber was innoculated

  GCN is fine, but i have had issues replaying races a few times last year. It would replay from the very start of the race, but when i tried to skip through to Xkm to go, it would crash and restart at the very beginning.

  edit. This was on the app, casting to my TV via Chromcast. On web browser it worked well
