Originally posted by RahimKWell, I have to admit you're right. What happened was I'm playing in this tournament, and now they added more games to my list. So, now I'm playing over 20 games again. But, when this tournament is over, I'll probably quit playing so many.
Question for you. You only have 1 hour to make all you moves in your 20+ games. I saw you finished some games and started more games an now your over 20 again. Why would you continue playing chess this way an bludering away pieces? I would be ashamed of such games. How can you be proud of your games? If someone should you one of these games and asked you if it was yours, would you seriously say yes thats my game?

You didn't say anything about your provisional OTB rating. You also haven't offered any reason why I can't find you on any USCF correspondance rating lists going back to 2002.
PS. You're right about the Stonewall Attack. It should never ever ever be played as it's impossible to win with it. Just like in this example.
Tikhomirov,S (2357) - Bochk ...[text shortened]... d6 Ne5 23.Qe3 Bc6 24.Be2 Bxg2 25.Rg1 g4 26.Rxg2 gxh3 27.Rg5 h2 28.0-0-0 1-0
Oh wait a second.

Originally posted by RahimKYep, you're exactly right. Sometimes, I make moves and throw a Queen away because I'm rushing, and I'm horrified afterwards, because the game was as good as won. It really does distress me. I guess I do need to play far less games. 🙁 Say I played only 6 games at a time, I am sure I could add a hundred or two hundred points to my rating. But, I'm just having fun on here. It's not like I take RHP so seriously. It's not like a USCF tournament. But, I guess I should take it more seriously. I don't know.
