I'll play if you like, but since you've moved first, you're White. Your 
move f6 is a move of a pawn to f6 (P-KB6, in descriptive) and is illegal.
Try another move and I'll be glad to respond. Did you perhaps mean 1. f3?
By the way, it's customary to prefix moves with the number of the move, as
1. f6
