Greetings all! Getting back into chess after about 30 years. Last real tournament I played in was the 1986 Pan Am, where I played 4th board for my college team. Back then I hovered in the USCF 2000-2100 range, but my brain doesn't work as well as it used to. Now I'd be shocked if I were stronger than 1600-1700 and lucky to be even that strong.
I'm a self-proclaimed "International Grand Patzer" - I play mostly unsound, aggressive chess trying for a position that confuses us both! Then I hope you make more blunders than I do - or at least the last one 😉
