This is a training game (I’m a retired chess coach) and I would ask that just the players post in it. (Your co-operation is appreciated!)  
I’ll give a link to the associated game discussion thread, where folks are welcome to ask questions, make suggestions and helpful comments.

The discussion thread is at [Chess: Glee v HeyHomie (discussion thread) - The Game Room - Straight Dope Message Board](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/chess-glee-v-heyhomie-discussion-thread/965312)

Heyhomie, we can post our moves like this:

White Black

1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nc6

and so on.

N.B. This isn’t the actual game!

I’ll also try to link to a chessboard, to make it easier to follow the game.
