Game 371486 (fools mate with a twist!)

how strange. I'd never heard of this guy before searching a few player tables and seeing who's been doing well, and I found his name, then this thread. Unfortunately he seems to move slower than most, not a great number of games for his time here.

I have to say that woodworms style is similar to ironmans. He uses tempo to perfection, really impressive. As for ironman, i'm sure most of you have played him and learned that he has this particular technique down to a fine art. The two together would be like the Tal/fischer match that never was! (obviously i'm disregarding the Tal/Fischer match that did happen as Fischer was only 11 at the time!)

I haven't, but I've heard he accepts games through private message sometimes, but most people have probably run into him in a tournament.

Nice to see woodworm get some recognition. If he played more frequently he'd be near or at the top of the log. It does go to show, though, that the ratings don't only reflect playing strength but also the workload. The reason for that is because there is an ever-increasing rating spread as this site become more mature. If you are a good player, but relatively inactive, your rating is almost certainly lower than it should be compared to more active players.
