I'm only an average player, but I have joined a team, enjoy keeping my brain active and play for fun too. If you use the link below and join the site, why not challenge me? You don't have to be brilliant, ratings go from 500 to over 2400 (I'm usually around 1300, but with team games this goes up and down)...

Please copy and paste the whole link, from <a href> to the final </a>. Look forward to playing some of you!

Does that mean you'd love to play or love to learn to play HC?

Oh great, HC. Look forward to a challenge from you then... :-)

Jason, I've no idea why but when I try insert links (or images), all I end up with is the html... I think I've managed to put just one image up here in all the time I've been a member. The (swanky?? Wait till I get LION for it - haha) Mac is fine, I think it must be the interface between the chair and the keyboard!!! Embarassed

Upping pics here is not really as easy as it should be, but if you want me to talk you through it I can do. Once you've done a few, well, it becomes easier!
Never really played chess before, not enough contact or adrenalin for my liking, but I might sign up for a chuckle.

Join the site, then play Blitz. Foive minit games!!! You can beat anyone (or lose to anyone) in foive o' the little clock ands! I once beat a 2309, but it might have been that someone kicked him in the jewels when he was making a move... haha. And I lost to 600-ish. Danny peed himself laffing...

I'm not much more than an average player, and the last year my rating has dropped a hundred and twenty so I'm easy pickings at the moment I guess... :-(

Try the home link - [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] - rather than the link with my userid. That might be the problem. They put the userid in there so that if someone pays for a membership service you get free months.

Seriously, averaging 1 move every hour is a little too sedate for me. Don't they have speed chess?

Yes. Play Blitz chess for a buzz. 5 minute clock. As I've just said to Kari, though, use the analysis function to find that killer move. Remember you might be playing someone from New Zealand or Argentina.

I have become very good friends with a native American Indian and we can only move once a day due to the time difference.
