... Your rating has already dropped from 1700s to the low 1600s! ....
I've not believed your excuses for a second. I doubt anyone has. you use all your skill, all your time, but still play like a 1400. accept it. maybe then you'll have a chance to get better.

Yeah, I did. Yeah, I can't deny that, but I thought I could get some positional advantage somewhere. I had a good reason. But, when it was blatanly obvious, I resigned. But, I also need to remind you I was moving twice or three times a day in some instances, and that game last a much shorter time. Those moves I made still did not make the game longer than it could have been.

Originally posted by wormwoodActually, out of all 20 games I'm playing right now, I'm playing 1400 and 1500 players, so you don't have a clue what you're talking about wormwood. Use the facts before you speak. Nearly all my games are 1400s and 1500s players. 🙂

Originally posted by Natural ScienceYeah, I know. It should have resigned, but I knew if I moved two or three times a day that it wouldn't be so bad to continue the game for a short time longer. Anyway, eventually I resigned for sure when I saw it was absolutely hopeless.

Originally posted by GrandmousterWell, how is it that my rating is now getting near yours Grandmouster? Okay, I will accept the 1200 thing. So, I guess that means you are rated in the 1300s? or less? Anyway, this arguement has got to end. I am not being too nice, and I feel very convicted about that. So, I'm sorry Grandmouster. I just am very competitive. And, I do apologize for my flaming blows - if you could call them flaming. It's not what Jesus would do. And, I have to admit it's wrong to say those things to you. So, please forgive me. I shouldn't be treating my brother like that. 🙁
ok, 1200 pretending to be a 1500 who thinks hes an expert.

Originally posted by RavelloRavello, it's said that you think Jesus is a fairy tale. But, he's not a fairy tale. He rose from the grave in three days, died for our sins. John 3:16 says, "For God so loved the World that He gave His only begotten Son, that who so ever shall believeth in Him should not perish, but have ever lasting life." This world is not all there is. If you are satisfied in believing that the universe just came out of "nothing" from a quantum vacuum, then I suggest you ask yourself where the "quantum vacuum" came from. God made it! Look to the signs. Iran threatening Israel. Russia having a treaty with Iran so that they are pretty much allied. If Iran and Russia attack Israel - just like the Bible says they will - World War III will occur. Close to that event, the rapture will take place. God is not slack in fulfilling His promise. The European Union has a seat number 666 that is empty right now. The murals in the European Union are of the woman of the apocalypse riding the beast out of The Book of Revelation. And, there are many other signs. Jesus is no fairy tale. I will pray for you Ravello. Just remember that who ever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. When you finally come to your senses. God does not wish any to perish, but that all come to the glory of the Father, His Son Jesus Christ.
Wake up,fairy tales don't exist.

God is as much real as SantaClaus,face it.
I don't need your stupid prayers,I don't need your god and overall I don't need to hear another brainwashed predicator here in the Chess forum: please listen to BigDogg's advice and don't torture us with religious drivel,there's the Spirituality forum for it.
