If I resume my playing and start a game of two in near future (with pretty long time controls) I will probably play at 1700+ level. And my rating is 995. Eh, who will play with me ? It would not be fair.. If I challenge 1600+ player, if he win, he gets 0 points for that, if I win he losses 32 points.. Stupid really..

If you really feel this is important, maybe try playing mostly provisionals until you get your rating up around 1300.

No problem, at all. One shouldn't be too concerned with ratings.

Ask some of your clan leaders to issue us a challenge (to any of my clans), so we'll get one white and one black games.

And good game. 😉

Entering a Hardcore Grand:

Stage One: Preparation. For this you will need: one room which you will not leave; one mattress; tomato soup, ten tins of; mushroom soup, eight tins of, for consumption cold; ice cream, vanilla, one large tub of; Magnesia, milk of, one bottle; paracetemol; mouthwash; vitamins; mineral water; Lucozade; pornography; one bucket for urine, one for feces, and one for vomitus; one television; and one bottle of Valium, which I have already procured from my mother, who is, in her own domestic and socially acceptable way, also a (chess) addict.

Just kill this account and start a fresh one!

User 400793 was formerly User 4867 and I am sure he could assist you with this.

If memory serves me correctly, in another post you were bragging about having resigned most of your games, and being a 900 player....I recall telling you that...I hope you don't have many 21 21 games still going.

P.S. where you have already been at 1650, it probably wouldn't come as a big shock to anyone that you would reach 1700 + !! In my eyes, it just made it look like you were Sandbagging to be perfectly honest with you!!!

No, I am not 😛

I won't start any tournaments, it is too addicting and time consuming to play dozens of tournaments and clan games (at least for me, of course), that is why I resigned in the first place...

Even better, I will start playing club games only where rating begins from the beginning 😛
