@ghost-of-a-dukesaid Farewell White Walker,
he was quite the talker,
yet a strange little fellow,
turned out to be yellow,
his downfall a hell of a corker.
Yet, he runs like a Yorker,
to Little Betty's, the porker.
Gnoshing a pudding pie,
he's the real stout guy...
inevitably unable to fork her.
@sonhousesaid @WOLFE63 I guess you noticed he has 6 timeout losses and two more games in progress, probably going to timeout also. What's up with that?
Thought he was going to get praise for his unbeaten run.
Instead he got us. LOL
I haven't looked yet, but his time control against goad was 1 day per move.
I don't believe he is anywhere near you and goad's playing strength. I believe the highest Badge was under his other names was 1500's....He can of course correct me.
I believe he was making 3rd party moves at certain times with Badge. Played what appeared to me to be a stronger opening against goad. Best part was goad didn't even castle but could have manually if the position called for it, he quit before giving Goad the pleasure of beating him without even castling.
@ghost-of-a-dukesaid The Ghost knows no fear,
only victory and beer,
finds nobody scary,
of none is her wary,
lives to warrant a cheer!
Your opponents ratings would average out to mid 1600's so you are not shying away from stronger players, have to give you that!
I play in many club tournaments that I've been a part of over the years so that does keep my average rating lower, it is not that I pick them out. My play is also not as strong as it once was. People who have played me for years can confirm that.
@ghost-of-a-dukesaid He only played the fastest time control. He was in a strange rush to win as many games as possible. (And then ran for the hills when he lost one).
Could be a smoke screen?
Who benefitted from his time-out losses?
" Craig Smith 3" did.

Describes himself as "Retired professional chess player of 45 years....looking for some fun without assistance"
Smells fishy.
Apologies to Craig if this is just coincidence.
