About Me:
I started playing chess a few years ago, when I picked up a beginner's book and learned the rules by myself. My playing style is quite unique, and I'm surprised that I've done well with it. I don't like to play in tournaments (though I have made a lot of money from them), and prefer to play casually. Also, I am an average student, with many interests.
I've found this site great because of the community. I have made quite a few friends, although some of their accounts are now inactive. I have and always intend to share my thoughts with everyone through my posts. Please feel free contact me. Email, messages, and notes are all ok. Also, I can only improve the quality of my posts from feedback, so please leave a comment if you can.
NOTE: If I do not respond to your questions/comments/concerns, it does not mean that I am ignoring you. I am very busy most of the time, but I will try to reply if possible. Also, I try my best not to write things that are controversial, incorrect, insulting, etc. However, please note that this will occur sometimes and that I am sorry if it does.
