The Petru Floresc List Of Excuses

This list will be added to as the season progresses. Please let me know if you hear of any more so that I can add them to the list.

1. The board was the wrong colour
2. The pieces weren’t big enough
3. The chair was too near the wall
4. My opponent kept knocking my legs under the table
5. I would have taken the game seriously if I’d known it was being graded
6. I can’t play on Mondays because I’m always tired
7. The clock was too noisy
8. The lighting wasn't good enough
