I case you haven't figured it out, I am new to the whole Twitter thing. Somehow I managed to get @Zwischenzug2011 suspended in the first 30 minutes of life, and my understanding is that it could be a long time before that is resolved. (The fact that you can "re-open" a trouble ticket that is still "in process" isn't reassuring.) So, I have a new place to find us on Twitter:
@zwischen_zug
Thanks for your patience!
It's Your Move!
What I am doing when I am not doing what's expected of me - a blog for family and casual gaming. I firmly believe all games are educational games in some manner. Board games create friendships, build families and teach social skills. This site is dedicated to helping families and friends find great family games and casual games to play.
zwischenzug (ZVI-shen-tsoog) — noun
A chess tactic in which a player, instead of playing the expected move, first interpolates another move, changing the situation to the player's advantage (such as gaining material or avoiding what would otherwise be a strong continuation for the opponent).
