No worries my friend, just making sure you're still out there 
So how long have you been playing, and how did you get started? |
Heh, another move I must slowly consider...
As for me, I've been playing exceedingly sparingly for over 30 years (maybe 1 or 2 matches a year). My late dad first taught me at about 7. To this day, I know very little theory and tend to make things up as I go. I enjoy the game more as a study of how predictable I can be when I am trying to be otherwise. More often, I prefer to actually play accomplished players who I have no chance against just as a learning experience.
What about you?
