    I'm more of a Go person than Chess, though I'm not that great at it.

      I play on gameknot as Xenofixus and just registered at chess.com under the same name. I'm really bad at fast-paced chess, but I tend to do well when I get enough time to think, which is why my rating is pretty good on gameknot. Oh, and for those on gameknot: try chess tactics, it's lots of fun. I have been trying to break the 2200 tactics rating for some time, but above 2000 it gets really tough lol.

        I got introduced to chess in the 7th grade and quickly became very good at it. I never entered any kind of championship because I couldn't find one to enter, but I was in the chess club in middle school. I decided not to join the club in high school and I quit playing. I could probably be beaten pretty easily now, but maybe I'll sign up for that chess.com site and get some practice, especially since I'm not taking any classes in the spring so I'll have a lot of time on my hands.

        edit: I signed up; I'll play later. http://www.chess.com/members/view/Crashfan3

          Uhh playing since I was 6 years old, read a few books, was very active from when I was 8 to when I was 16, now I'm terrible in comparison but I pat'd a master this winter (absurd luck, Im not THAT good) even though I sorta had the upper hand just before endgame, otherweise meh. I used to be a fan of blind chess but I cant do that anymore. Im very rusty but still good I guess.

              I came to this thread interested upon seeing a thread that is about chess...
              ... when I find out my measly rating of 1560 is absolutely nothing.

              Thanks for ruining my self-esteem in yet another game, FFR.

                I played during high school a lot. I learned a lot but, no where near a chessmaster... At best... I am an average player? I have not played in a long time though. :\
