Are you having some issues we don't know about?

I can't see how I can be of any help from here in Canada.

If you have issues, P.M. would probably be best way. Let me know if I have you "Ignore"

I try not to do that and seem to be very successful at it.

You sound like you're in one of your moods again. Not meant in a bad way.

what is obvious even though you didn't answer the question in the op, is that you have not read any such books or they have not helped you in the least
you are filled to the brim with ignorance
it's a miracle that you are able to use the potty chair

Your insults will not stop me from pointing out any games I figure you have sandbagged in. Others can decide for themselves. When another Clan Leader agrees you are SANDBAGGING, doesn't help your case. I am so ignorant I noticed you were giving away points and pointed it out some time ago. Sometimes management is slow but I don't want to be you when they start looking through your last 50 games.

Not wanting to 'Gate crash' or anything, I found books and magazines are most helpful in all areas. I recommend a the Karma Sutra for a start.

Great post a game you figure I sandbagged in just one.

I've already explained why my rating goes up and down. You don't pay attention.

I said this to let the Clan Leaders know in my own opinion I believe myself to be a 1400-1500 player.

I play in many Club, tournament, and private games. That is why I am in favor a separate rating for Clan Challenges. I don't try and fix my rating purposely like you've been doing for a very long time now.

your explanation of your rating drop was a smoke screen
your clan leader is getting you a lot of easy matches now

Do you know what their TRUE ratings are? Are they where they are now or are they actually rated somewhere between 1400-1500? Do a little home work lemon and find out more.

No smoke screen at all you've played me yourself quite a few times and should know, just trying to take the pressure off of yourself not doing the work to find out.

I been playing for 13 years with Metallica show me a game there I sandbagged in.

You are now going to be watched a lot and don't like it...Well pout all you want and hope administration don't 'vet' your games too much. which means make a careful and critical examination of (something). In this case your Clan Challenge games!

If I were you I'd be quite concerned.
