actually, it works like this- a) get up at 0430, have quiet time and get ready for work; b) arrive at work 0630, work til 1600; c) arrive home, spend quality time w/wife & 15 of 16; d) play as many moves as i can for 2 hours; e) go to bed; and f) do it all over again, with minor variations.

What makes you think your life is any different from mine? Or any of the thousands of other adults with gainful employment, families, and homes to take care of.

The simple fact of the matter is, you're complaining about your opponents not moving and you are doing the same thing!

Clean the skeletons out of your own closet first.

A 50% win record isn't half bad. 😕

Get a grip.
When you enter, I find a lot of the people there are already playing. I wait for one to finish- with so many fast games generally not long- and then start to play.
Whiner.

alviejr , offer games, I really don't understand why you can't get games. I'll challenge you. And I play multiple's daily. In fact I only offer 1 day no timeout games. That would be advice as well if you want movers. I personally hate 7 day 7 day timeout games.

Well apparently as a non-subscriber you can't get challenged if you have more than 6 games going on. I just tried. Take my advice, only play 1 day games, and dump them if they don't play. You have lost out on the opportunity to play a fast player, me. You can try to challenge me, but I'm not sure you can as a non subscriber. I'll offer a game in the open games, you're welcome to jump on it. Once again, no 7 day games. Heck no 3 day games in my book. (except I have to sometimes cause I play in a clan - MUTI! go MUTI!). By the way MUTI is the rockingest clan ever! Also, consider a subscription, it's 10 times cheaper than a night at Kon Tiki. Did I mention MUTI! go MUTI!
