Why don't the better players post more games to the "open invites" list?
I'm currently 2068.
I was 2220, but stuff happens.
1700's using a program.
I'm playing people in "tournaments" that are rated in the 1500's.
If I win I get 0 points, if I lose, I lose 20/25 points gained 3 or 4 at a time.
I "challenge good players", I get a reply, "I only play in tournaments".
Why don't the players rated over 2000, just start playing each other, and leave the weenies alone.
Or maybe it is because they do not want to lose their rating, that means nothing.
Just a thought.

maybe you should request more tournaments for 2000+?
not accepting challenges sounds very odd indeed. you'd think all higher rated players suffered from the same lack of strong opponents...

EDIT: Oh yeh, i've been meaning to ask you... On my travels i cam across this game Game 1625906. Why did you resign? It's a draw, there is no way to Queen the pawn as long as the white rook remains on theg-file, no?
