try to become an A-class player. going to try to do tactics until Im blue in the face, and then do some more. decided to change my opening repertoire yesterday.. tough decision as I know my current one is 100% good, its just the growth isnt there with it.
hoping to read a lot of chess books and maybe do 2 tournaments or so when my 3d chess stamina improves
Originally posted by Ajuinthankyou Ajuin my friend but that's without knowing anything about chess really, just tactics, nothing more, and as you can see i have made no progress since.

On Dec 2007 you were 1309.298 points gained in 2 years isn't bad at all!
