I would assume that most everyone has a better record playing as white.

What is your record difference? Show it as a plus or minus

For example, I have two more losses than wins playing as white, and 10 more losses that wins playing as black. So:

white: -2
black: -10


edit - this thread is sooooooooooooooooooo racist lol 😉

We had a thread (or possibly several) about that in the Chess forum earlier, and there were actually quite a few people who had a better record with black.

Well, mostly I am telling you that if you are really interested in the results, you might want to dig up that old thread (I don't have the time right now). I found it quite interesting.

11 more draws in total than losses... draws against stronger players
gain a few points. Why would anybody want to lose on purpose?

I don't know. To enter banded tournaments, to pretend he's someone else, etc...

I'd have to ask them to know exactly.

Clan membership holds no appeal, as I would be unable to handle the requirements of scheduled play or the daily demands of a high

volume of games. Chess nowadays is strictly casual and conversational. Value the freedom of inviting games from an increasing

short list of interesting, desirable and friendly opponents. -Bowmann 😀
