Well,since this is a closed(and smaller) playing pool,you cant expect a direct correlation.However;assuming the Belgium rating system is similar to the US one(my apologies if this is an incorrect assumption),I've read that you can expect your established rating to wind up being 100-200 pts higher ro...

I think the team fortunate enough to get me should be named " The Awesome Alliance of Awesomeness" or Triple-A for short.Some good names for opposing teams would be; "We're not worthy", "Please,don't hurt me", "Here to bask in the glow of Chris's awesomeness" & maybe "I want to be like Chris when I ...

Thanks for the reply.I was thinking that back some time ago there were member discounts.If that's no longer the case,then I have no real reason to resub at the moment as I wont be playing any USCF tourneys in the forseeable future. Also appreciate your answer to my as yet unasked next question.Was g...

USCF Membership?
This question is for any current or recent members of the USCF.My membership expired several years ago.I dont really plan on participating in any USCF events due to lack of time/money/opportunity.The store does seem to have a decent selection of books & other materials.I assume anyone can shop & pur...

I'm concerned about time loss as well,just prepared to accept the risk if everyone else is.I understand your desire to make it fast but fun.Was just considering one alternative.How would something like 15 days +12hours (for example) work?I was thinking the +12hours wouldnt add too much time,but woul...
