To anyone who cares to read this thread,
Some of you may have noticed my rating fast approaching 800, 😀 , mainly due to me resigning games i did not want to play; though a few i was clearly losing. I made the mistake of entering a quick fire tournament, added pressure to play continuously, plus (evil) outside influence of a large work load, means i can not play fast or often.
Russ and Chris are doing there best to develop (an excellent) site and add improvements to the site. However some over their improves i do not llike or am worried about, whilst i others i would really like are on the list to be done (sometime).
I am not critising them, they both have limited time and this is really only a hobby, but at the same time i have my own views.
I am not totally leaving the site, i will continue ten or so games playing close friends, sorry to those who think they should be on the list but are not, other than those games i will not be accepting challenges. And of course i will not be accepting any offers to join a clan.
As i becomes my turn to make a move in those games i do not want to play i am resigning. After this process is complete any remaining timeouts i will take with no warning and regardless of vacation settings. Leaving only those players i intend on playing.
The list is too long but i would like to thank the 100+ (must be close to 200) players on this site i have played since i joined.
