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

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.

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 ๐Ÿ˜€
