Originally posted by woadman ok apparently there is some mis-understanding here. FATLADY I will be glad to accept to play one game ( as White, since you are rated higher) with no timeouts or banks or anything. I ACCEPT your challenge , but must stick to my higher standards of play !
Originally posted by woadman on other websites..just when the games get interesting, my opponents disappears for 2 or 3 WEEKS !! They cant stand the pressure I guess. Most people agree with me 100%, so I now want to just play chess without all the DELAYS. !!
Capitalization and punctuation are our friends. Use them CORRECTLY!..
Originally posted by woadman thats the trouble with most chess players...you fear a high rating..I fear NO-ONE ! That's why I'm ready to take on ALL page one players on this site !
Originally posted by woadman Of course I wont accept any offer that includes time-outs or "vacations" . I stated that the first day here. I'm willing to play one or two more games now..but I'm following the Russian Superfinals quite closely right now..
to prove I'm serious I just accepted Larkie's challenge with NO time BANKS !!
I never really like to post in the forums as I'm just trying at chess, but to play a challenge from such a player would be a treat for me whatever the stipulations.
Bobby Fischer staged his funeral in Iceland and continued to play incognito on the internet. He lives in Budapest now. If you play some of the openings Spassky, Pterossian, Larsen and Taimanov used to, he might approach to you first.
I made it clear that I ACCEPT a game vs. FatLady . I also tried to challenge SirDubalot, with no luck...I was blocked out. NO PROB ! Once I get 5 rated games, I'll be free to go directly to the top !!.

you understand the rating system? After the first five rated games you get a first (provisional) rating. After 20 games the first non-provisional rating. The provisional rating will go down if you win against much lower rated players.
You can go to the top anyway, you just need high rated opponents (not me obviously)
Hi everyone...thank you all very much for the offers to play some games. Right now I am maxxed out and can't accept any new games. I also play on another website, too. Plus I'm spending loads of time following the Russian Superfinals and Qatar tournaments.
