Yeah, you don't find many players who are young ladies and in your age range playing chess. That's why a couple people think you're not legit.

A hydra is an account set up by someone who has another more established account. On chess forums there is actually a bit of that cloak and dagger nonsense unfortunately.

I love the Internet Chess Club. Best chess server by far. Yes, occasionally people use computers to cheat. But if you're good, you can beat the comps and the humans who use comps to get an edge.

ps- Are you really an Architect?
