I am Gary - Hello - OzChess

**Counterplay** · 09-12-2008, 05:35 AM

Hi everyone,

I am new here. My real name is Gary - not joking, it really is. That is why my name Karpov Killer is so awsome! Anyway, I play chess and am almost 2000. I subscribe to Chess Life as well as New In Chess magazines but I don't study chess much anymore and mostly just play now. I try to avoid blitz because I think it ruins my rating amd weakens my play in long time control games.

Cheers, Gary

Pleased to meet you Gary. You have a pretty scary sounding name.

Best Regards,

Hey Gary, welcome to the forums! I'm still loving to learn and develop new techniques but if you ever want a game - I'm keen!

hi! ,welcome to the site. so when you say '2000' i guess you don't mean 2000 years old but are refering to your chess rating , is this a net rating or a real rating?

anyways i hope you can enjoy the site.

Its probably an ICC rating

Funny thing is that everyone thinks those are so reliable.
