Well after a good long rest, Chess has sucked me back in.

I was looking at some great games from our Clubs Championship, 8 rounds every Thursday from Jan to Feb which I won last year and :'(

Then I had a look at the Rhp top table and what do I see? #200 I'm gunning for you, DragonFire! DF, you can go up or down on the ladder but I want that spot 🙂 I'm gonna set my sites on getting over 1900 here and then being #200.

OO, and also those stupid stupid dice for that Risk game!! I thought risk would be my new Rhp 🙁


Started working on my openings again with bookup, played over some games and started reading today: Kasp teaches Chess, 30 pages and Reasses Workbook, 40 pages. Great stuff.

Start out slowly, take the rust off and get back to normal.

It's been awhile, Trust me. Last Otb game I played was Mar 2, 2006 at the club which I lost.

Rhp, several months I think.

Because you are # 200. Don't take it seriously, take it personally.

Either move up or move down, Up hopefully. But I'm coming!

AHHHHHH. That's not fair.

Well let me get back to normal strenght and will see about this RHP list thing.

As you know, with Mafia you don't just go after the person but you go after their family, friends, loved ones everyone. You hit em where it hurts.

I'm gonna knock you off your beloved CTS list!! 1500 already after trying 20-30 puzzles, I was watching tv at the same time. Apprentice is pretty good now.

Anywho what do you think about that ?

That will teach you not to mess with me!

Cheers 😛

I'm missing the job part right now. Working 3 days a week, and looking for real work.

Bored out of my mind most of the time.
