I played chess on and off since I was 16. My strength is somewhere between 1500 and 1800 depending on what mood I am in. I love the game. I tend to be more of a solid player and not all that creative, but I will punish you if you make a mistake or leave your king exposed. I enjoy learning about my opponents and making new friends. I like rematches and talking about what we did right and wrong in the game. I think it is polite to resign if there are no practical chances left in a game. Good luck.
