Hi!

Just wondering if anyone wants to play a game sometime? I’ve been having fun here but I want to improve as a player so I would like to play more opponents in my skill level or slightly above. My skill level is somewhere in the low 1300’s and so far here I have mostly played people around 1200 or lower. My rating is 1413 but this will go down as I play more games.

I am a female teenager from Canada and would like to play people who are similar to me if there are any but even if you are different I am not going to say that I won’t play a game with you. Okay? I have five available games because I haven’t subscribed here so please send me a private message and I’ll remember to send you an invite someday even if I can’t immediately play because I’ve decided to play someone else.

Thanks.

Use the Open Invites page, and enter something like "rating 1100-1500" in the "game name" field so that people can see what you want. Or check out the "is online now?" function in the Find Player screen and challenge anyone who looks suitable. Once you get off the provisional rating (after 20 rated games) you'll find it easier to get games.

I only play in tournaments with Sandbaggers, then in clan matches with other sandbaggers.

The KING OF ALL THE SANDBAGGERS adramforall has been threatening to leave the site for months but so far it is just an idle threat.

I think he is scared to leave, as he has no life or friends outside of this site, the poor bugger. I ALMOST feel sorry for this person. 😛 😉

adramforall will be leaving the site once his games complete. I will miss him.

Fixed.

P.S. Why did you drop from a high of 1678 on the 7th February 2012 to a low of 1465 on the 20th February?

Just part of your sandbagger duties was it, lose 213 points in 13 days?

Hey Fins. You think I am sandbagging?

I have been playing terrible of late.

But my rating has dropped significantly.

Am I sandbagging? Huh? Am I?

Look at my graph......what does it tell you?

You can't even come up with something original you have to copy what I said to you and make it yours by changing my quote which I will remind you is agains the TOS.

I guess when one is God's gift to mankind, one can be expected to be copied by the less fortunate. 😏

I helped you out, but changing your quote.

See what wonderful person I am next to you! 😛

Don't remember accusing you of sandbagging. Look at your recent opponents, 90% + are rated over 1600. As you say you are going through a bad patch - it happens.

If your opponents were rated at 1450/1500 and your rating was still dropping then I would re-evaluate the position.

You barely get by yourself finley.

In fact you don't even play anymore, you just shoot your crap in the forums about others.

I am starting to get bored with your repetitious B.S.!

It DOES BECOME BORING!

Hey guys! I'm trying to meet new players. Can you maybe talk about whatever you're talking about somewhere else? No offense.
