Hi, oh no problem. I'm just doing a few tactic training each day to keep my eye in as I've been out of the house quite a bit. It sounds like you are working hard at it, keep it up. What is expert rating, is it over 2000?
Hello mate. I am sorry about dropping that game a while back. . I didn't have access to net for about a week. . that's one downside of that site. How is your chess going? I'd been studying a lot for a while, and had a very impressive two weeks at the club here (18-2) but then two weeks of more mediocre results. I'm still hoping to break expert sometime before too long.
OK I've set that game up. If you go to "Play" and then "Online" you should find the game request. Thanks.
Oh great stuff, I'm Benedictine (I was listening to a lot of chant stuff at the time) I'll try and find you and set up a game if you want? I'll set up an unrated, 3 day time, random colour. You don't have to only make one move in three days, you can make as many as you want depending on your opponet, but it gives you a bit of flexibility if you are not at your computer for a day or so. Cheers. Oh, I'll send a friend request as well. It is much easier to find each other this way too.
Ok, I'm on there. What's your name? Or maybe it will be easier if I tell you mine. It seems I was already signed onto there, when I logged in through facebook it showed me I was. I believe my name is firstidea.
Can do if you don't want to join I think it would be easier though. There is the advantage of ease of use and being able to comp analysis. We can set the timings to suit as well, so 1 day/2 day+ on the clock, it keeps all the games saved as well. Have a look and see if you fancy doing that, if not then yes we can PM the moves if you would still rather do that. I asked about the analysis and they said that there is a backlog and will be with me shortly. Cheers.
Oh, I was thinking just to send our moves to each other. Is that ok? That'll be cool. I just found a chess program on my computer, a gnochess or something. It's super-simple but maybe a 2000 engine.. I plan on practicing against it.
Hi, yes OK that's a good idea I'll have a game with you. The chess.com site is really useful if you fancy a game on there. It is quick and free to join. The computer anaysis of my game has not come in yet. This is unusual as it usually only takes 2-6 hours to come back. I'll send you a link when it comes in.
Hey would you want to play a correspondence game?
Hi Neely, I'm doing well, thank you! Glad you are enjoying chess so much. I did have a good Christmas, thanks. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Take care, Nik
