appologies to Greg & an explanation

This will be my last post on this site. My decision to leave the site was based on Greg's referral to a psychic hotline. I was simply stating a fact. My reaction was perhaps a bit immature itself. As to my retractors, I would recommend referring to my first 71 games and not my current w/l/d ratio as...

RANT: re:cheating

I've analyzed a number of games and have determined that a number of my opponents are in fact using computer chess programs to make moves. I don't know that anything can be done about this. Those of you who do so know who you are. I don't get the point of doing so, for the inflated ratings are not r...

for Greg

Hello Greg,
I would like the ability to specify the minimum number of games an opponent has completed when starting a new match.
FYI: it may just be my experience, but my provisional status was not removed until I had completed 21 games, not 20 as stated in the FAQ.
Thanks in advance,

I like to play all kinds of chess though playing here gives me a chance to work on my weaknesses more intensively while the games are in progress. Openings I play fairly quickly-though not well, I am studying NCO. I'm stonger in the middlegame and am working on position strategy. I'm weak in the end...

I started w/email notification ON. That turned out to be inconvenient. I turned off email notification & am notified of matches/game results from an email that begins w/"bounce...". Perhaps you have set this "bounce..." email address to be sent to /dev/null or equivalent in your mail program. I used...

Perhaps a question to Greg would be the best answer.

Since your rating is provisional perhaps you played a player w/rating of 1500, since that is also most likely your rating.
