I respect the game and the players and show good sportsmanship. ==> Where's the respect?
I haven't come across any such player yet...
And who says Chess is not entertaining? Game is only one part of it. Players make it even more enjoyable 😵
Ohhh dooo000OOODZ in 60 minutes I have a skull due against a 1700+ opponent that will put me over 1700 an then I will be a good player an stuff join me in teh countdown and keep your fingers crossed that he doesn't pop up.
Edit: 40 minutes now
30 minutes and he's still not on the site
20 minutes.......the suspense is killing me........the only thing spoiling this is I probably have a won game anyway, it would be so much more satisfying if I was losing.
10 minutes......

I was going to buy him a cup of coffee. (I really figured his wife would shoot him first.) Still it will take more than his paltry 107 more losses to catch up with the king User 337724
I like User 368522 profile. He is all chess'd out.
And one User 256028 skulls was taken by me. 😏
Originally posted by Sam The ShamLol, i predict like Icarus, the sensation of being so high shall overwhelm you and you shall become intoxicated by the sheer artistry and come crashing to the ground!
Yeah I'm now at 1722, the pressure is on to live up to that and keep my moves at the level expected of an artist.
It's a burden being rated so high.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieYeah I broke 1700 once before and a month later I was in the 1300's, I actually felt relieved and had more fun then.

25% wins by timeout? 35% wins by timeout? Bah!
User 478237 challenged me randomly a while ago. I accepted and sent a friendly hello message (no response, which i thought to be a bit rude). A few days and several moves later i noticed the 1 & 0 timeout setting and shuddered to think how close i might have come to being timed out without realising. He eventually resigned when i was one move away from checkmate (which i also took to be rude). He immediately challenged again with another 1 & 0 game, adding a very presumptious "thx for the rematch" as the opening comment (the first bit of dialogue i'd recieved, even after my friendly "hello" a week or so earlier, which i took as the final straw..)
I cancelled the game and let him know my displeasure, and wow, the tirade of abuse that followed!
Anywho, the point of the story: Wins by timeout 82. 58.99% The king of timeout fishermen if ever i saw one.
Originally posted by SeverI never accept a challenge without closely inspect the terms of the challenge, his some of his earlier games, and his profile.

If the graph shows a roller-coaster shape, then I always politely decline the offer.
Originally posted by Sever59% wins by timeout and still a 1200 rating surely that's a record for extreme suck

I see that the lad User 478237 who is King of the Vultures has had
to date just one post and that was to complain bitterly when time outs were suspended.
He appears in Thread 122631.
He must have had a whole lot of Skulls slipping through his itchy fingers.
