schakuhr or Exy i think are the two strongest ive ever played here for a lower 2100 rated player. Ive beaten Schakuhr once and my record against Exy is horrible, lets not go there, to many timeouts against him as well!

Sweet, I'm getting a rep.
It's funny, XanthosNZ would be on my list too. He put me in my place:
Game 1288846
Although my winner has to be meman (whoops he's > 2200, sorry I missed the subject 🙁). I think he holds like 3/4 of all the siege boards! I've played him five times. Three games are still going on, two are done. So far I lost one and drew one, and the three that are going on don't look so hot for me. I think I can probably squeeze a draw out of one of them.
He's #4 on the highest rated players list, and damned if he doesn't deserve it. His Caro-Kann defense is so hard to crack that I stopped playing 1. e4 against him. So far it hasn't really helped 🙂

Obviously the above 2100 is just past me right now, but for my rating range my tough opponents are exy and xanthos. I have to totally redesign my game if I ever play xanthos again. With exy I've reinvented myself so many times I can't remember lol.
Ironman he just won't lose to me....

In my game as black I had an isolated pawn sitting on e5 from move 23 to the end of the game (move 59). You never tried to attack it as a weakness.
In my game as white I doubled your pawns and later took advantage of that to gain an outside passed pawn.
That would be my one tip.
Best finish I've had would be a draw vs Redmike Game 853152. And after a certain point all the high rated guys you play mix together. Althoug there are a few that I haven't played that I'd like to (XanthosNZ and Exy come to mind) as they'd seem like great challenges. I'll play anyone though.
