Heh, I'm just terribly conflicted on what I want to do and what I think you're trying to do...

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?

Been playing for about six years, learned in the back of a history class in high school. Only became "serious" after a few games on here last year. Like you I know very little theory, but prefer to review my games and look at databases to see where I went wrong or right.
