Meh, passively fianchettoing both bishops and sacrificing pawns for long-term positional compensation is definitely not the way that chess was supposed to be played.

Holy shit, that King on a1 looked like a Shogi kingwalk. (For those who don't know, there's no castling move in Japanese Chess-and most pieces are good at attacking forwards, bad at attacking sidewards. So running your King to the opposite backrank can save a lost position into a draw.)
