If you're implying that I've cheated then you're even more of an idiot than you portray.
My ego doesn't require an increase in mediocre ratings points to be satisfied with playing chess.
I play because I love the game.
I accept that I'm not that strong.
Though occasionally I see what's essential in a complex position; I'm just as content to indulge in swigs of serendipity and luck.
In truth, most of the time, I struggle just to see two moves ahead.

wolfy,
Where did you think I was implying you cheated? Perhaps you are actually more an idiot than I assumed. Sorry for over estimating your intelligence!
We've each won 3 games, so I'd say we are around the same playing strength but yet you seem to keep up in the 1500's....Saying it was because of complex postions and a little luck as you struggle to see two moves ahead would have been good! 😉 Even if you win the next two games against me score would be 5-3 for you still not over whelming by any stretch of the imagination.
EDIT: talk to wg59 he is the one who said you were much stronger player than I was!!! 😉 He won 2 and I won one in the games between him and for some reason we didn't have the 4th perhaps he wanted to quit while he was ahead? I don't know the answer.

I said wolfe was a better player than you from what I have observed Do you understand that?
I've played him 9 times I think. All good games.
I've played you 3 times. Rubbish games I gave no thought to.
I lost one, big deal. I was blitzing it.
Against wolfe its 5-4.
He is a far, far better player than you.

All I was doing is blitzing in both game against you and wolfy, so what does that prove now?
@hakimasaid I’m not sure if Ireland’s PM qualifies as “head of state” yet he certainly possesses the qualities needed in leadership these days...a great leader does everything she/he can:
