While the site was down, I googled RHP stuff. One link stated the avrerage age, etc of an RHP'er. It also said an addict to RHP visits it 30 times a month. Shoot that's a day for me. 😞
Does the Betty Ford Center do RHP-aholics? 😞
now i have the urge to use blitz. they say, once you start using blitz you're on the final spiral down.

😞 Lawd help me. I'm a Big Chess addict now too. 🙁

Originally posted by Frank BurnsI know I can't lose because the top seed timed out in all games already. The current leader has 3 wins and one loss, to me. I have 3 out of 3 so far. I could well lose all 3 games. I have never played a variant before.
Cool, let us know how it went for you.
