If you were to win, I reckon you'd raise your rating 40 points or so. Not bad for one ...[text shortened]... ing useful & you'd hardly drop any points anyway.

Good luck - rip 'em to pieces!

Arrogant jerks deserve the beatings they incur.

Engine Engine # 9
Help my rating here online
The players here, they play too rough
Raising my rating is much too tough
I can't wait to be number one
I can't win and it ain't no fun
So I must resolve to cheat
My old engine can't be beat
I won't quit until I'm dead
Or they expose me in a thread
I won't ever pay their fee
I'm to cheap, I play for free
Can't wait until my rating's high
They'll toss my ass and tell me bye.
Wonder what I did it for
Because my whole life's just a bore
I want it now, don't want to work
I'm just another cheating jerk.

i got ripped to shreds lately by a high roller. he sacraficed his queen, i fell for it and he mated me. i didn't see it coming at all.

i was whooped.

5 ways to the top:
i. practice
ii. get lessons from a pro
iii. practice
iv. be born with it
v. practice.

hard work...chess playing is the hardest profession in the world...hard work!

I don't understand how buying Fritz would help me practice. It would beat me every time.

Subscribe and start to play more games.

It is possible to play loads of games at once, such as our friend User 332714 does, so with your ability to beat us all you will soon rise to be the number one player on the site.

If you go down this route then make sure all the games you start are 1/0 that way the games will finish quickly as your opponents will have to move quickly.

If you do this right you could be number 1 by Christmas.

I thought it was great. In fact, your whole attitude turns me on. Kick em when their down is my motto, and....a kick or two to get em down is nice.
