This is the last game I'll post on my Blog. Don't really feel comfortable putting this stuff out here. My win guaranteed us a spot in the championship match.

I agree with Jens.
What does make you feel uncomfortable?
I agree that there are more pro's than cons on publishing your own games. Furthermore I think that writing a chess blog without at least an occational chess game or position would sound a bit strange.
However, I've thought at times if I should first ask permission from the other player. So far I haven't. To my mind the only guideline is that the analysis is done without offending the other party (ie. without unnecessary gloating or mocking a la guestdestroyer on ICC).
The lost games are even more valuable as someone might have ideas that you just didn't see.
The TeamChess games are all available at the official site (since T22 if I remember right) so if your opponent want's to know what you've played before he/she can find it out easily.
Good game, btw. It always makes my heart warm when a Sicilian player get's thrashed.

Thanks for the input. I am not afraid of people seeing my games, as you guys pointed out they are posted on the T45 45 website for all to see, and on top of that my opponents go through my history in FICS which shows even more games than the T45 45 website does. So it's not that.
Two things that I thought about:
1. Offending my opponents since I learned that they do look at my blog.
2. I wasn't doing anything that wasn't already done on the Team 45 45 website.
As far as the second point is concerned, Jens' suggestion of annotating my games would cure that. For some reason I never thought about doing it before. Maybe because I'm embarrassed that I play a lot of "Hope" chess?
In any case, you guys have convinced me to try to annotate my next game. Please be candid with your remarks and let me know, if you were the other guy, if you would be offended by any of my annotations. Thanks.
