Make your chess moves early in the day

Clearly, your method seems to involve getting together with other clan leaders to hand your clan wins on a silver platter so that you never again have to go through the tedium of actually playing any games.

I really don't think it matters what time of the day moves are made. At least for me anyway.

My method is, I look at the board, analyze the possibilities and I am dissatisfied with anything I find. The next day it's the same thing. Eventually I get to the point where I must make a move or else lose on time. But having done analysis on several different occasions and times of day, I have some idea of what to play. I usually go the safe route, if I was never able to come to a conclusion on a move, I don't play it.

There's a 100 threads about that nonissue in the clan forum, why do feel the need to hijack threads in the GF?

Nobody cares.

That is pretty amazing, its almost like a form of mediation.

How dare you accuse Suzianne of doing such a thing; I'll have you know she is a bastion of pure forum etiquette, a defender of the weak and preventer of this entire site slipping into oblivion and probalbly a black hole.

KnightStalker,
According to your rating, your Knowledge of the game is much better than us mediocre players. You could probably make moves after out having drinks all night and not make many if any mistakes.

Wobbie,

Being human we all miss crap on the board, even you!!!

Whodey,
Did anyone say they were, besides yourself insinuating so?

If Dive said something was black you would say it was white just for argument sake!

its not about missing, 'crap', as you so eloquently put it, its about applying a systematic approach at every turn, its very difficult if not impossible for me to do, I don't know why.

Wobbie,

When did I ever claim to be eloquent...>ROFLMAO<

It is not like your an expert or Master at the game. You don't put yourself on the same level as those in the 2000-2200 range do you? Then above that you would have a hard time figuring out what they are doing I am sure!!!

Ok this is the third time I am going to attempt to explain the phenomena to you. See if you can assimilate any of the details. Its nothing to do with chess strength, ELO, missing elements due to an oversight or the ability to analyse or synthesize a position. It has nothing to do with being unable to grasp what is transpiring in a game between two masters. It has nothing to do with putting myself at the same level as those at master level. Its the lack of ability to focus. I cannot explain this any more simply for you to grasp.

Wobbie,
Lets just get rid of all the B.S. coming out right now. The highest you been is what in the 1800's and that is without me even checking. How do you think you are going to begin to understand what a Master would be doing in games, or world class players? Try Grasping that if you can, my old friend.

To be quite honest with you, I've often wondered if you have 3rd party help with your games. Especially because of how quickly your rating shot up. I don't believe it was from all the studying you claim to have said you were doing. You are on here far too much to have the time for that!!!

Maybe you're right. Maybe your explicit and specific cliche of someone watching porn behind a locked door is funnier than my left-to-one's-imagination image of a person playing chess in the nude - blithely, and perhaps presumptuously - left unexplained.

Check out my youtube chess channel Crusty, it has over one hundred videos of material i have studied from a diverse range of chess authors, including, IM Bangiev, GM Stein, Russian chess coach Alexander Bartashnikov and many others. In most if not all of these videos I cite the authors and the reference the works that the video is based upon. Can you tell the forum how that is possible without first having studied the literature in question? and once again we have on one side empirical evidence and on the other the slanderous insinuations of an empty vessel. I also have achieved a rating of 2000 on chess.com a site which ruthlessly removes cheats, another rather powerful indictment against your vile insinuations.

Now where were you, oh yes, you were telling us about Master games and making insinuations about cheating, oh dear, it seems that once again the empirical evidence has exposed what a vile and cynical creature you truly are. One is reminded of a drum, the more hollow the vessel, the larger the sound and here you were telling us something about Bulls, perhaps farming is your true vocation because you are a very poor troll.

What a simpleton.

Most chess players with any passion for the game do this 'visualization thing' naturally. They also have no problem focusing for an entire game, OTB, anyway. Correspondence becomes an issue only if you have trouble remembering what your plan was. Panax ginseng might help, and ginkgo biloba helps some people. But caffeine is still my nootropic of choice.
