I'vw played chess casually for some time now, read a few books on it. I've been playing on GameKnot for a couple of years, and recently managed to get a 1500 rating for the second time. I really need to work on learning a variety of openings besides the usual Ruy Lopez and a lot of the normal double king-pawn openings.
I fancy myself a tactician, and find the midgame and endgame enjoyable.
