He simply swung and missed. Not everyone can knock it out of the park every time they go up to bat like you Hot_Bid.

According Blackjack, there are a select few from tl.net who are \"very good\" chess players. I\'m here for such that of a selection.

I played BW fanatically for seven years (I\'m sure most of you remember me), and quit playing last year. Chess is where I\'ve been ever since (likewise during the BW era, but not quite as assiduously and intensely). If there is anyone intellectually capable of putting up a decent fight for the unfortunate futility bound by the fate of opposition, I\'m a 1900+ Yahoo. (The \"Yahoo\" is my noun.) I play every day. It\'d be wonderful to find some good chess competition from BW players; so far no good.

I do not know who you are. You are saying that you can beat all BW players in chess? So why are you here, asking for chess players? Are you trying to be a newb-crusher? Hahahaha. People like you are -_-;;;

To be honest after reading your initial post and then your subsequent posts where you said people were not worth your time, I'd rather run you over with my car than play you in chess.

Why don't you play with 10/15 time control then?


If this is addressed to me, I do play with longer time controls. I'm not saying everyone should, but I play with 20 minutes per side per game. It helps me think through my decisions and calculate variations. I was merely talking about my personal preference and I don't really care about computer assistance; it's not nearly the problem that people make it out to be.

Personally, I share Neo's opinion; that fast chess is not nearly as effect as slower chess if you're looking to improve. You guys should try it; play a bunch of blitz games online for like a week/two weeks. Then play longer games for the same amount of time. You'll come back to the blitz games stronger than you were before. It's no coincidence that the best blitz players are also among the best at slow chess in the world.

I used to have an ICC (Internet Chess Club) account, and it was a blast. I should get another one. Basically ICC is where all the best players (ie professionals) play.

For anyone who is interested in watching grandmasters etc play, go to www.chessclub.com (ICC website) and you can get a free 2 week trial.
