Hello, I just wanted to show a couple of my recent games and compare them to a couple of my games from 2006. My rating now is almost 2000 while my rating back then was only 1050. BIG difference. I can't believe how poorly I played then! My games from 2006 look like a bunch of random moves. The older games are from when I used to play on redhotpawn.com. Enjoy and tell me what you think!

make you wonder what you were looking at doesn't it
I don't quite know what you mean. The way you worded it is a little confusung...
Now, when I look at my games from when I first started it baffles me as too what I was actually looking/thinking about when I played them. Just a bunch of random moves put together.
You have made a HUGE improvement.

The main difference is you are now using all your pieces in unison and not using the Queen to do all of the work. Nice job.
Oh okay, and thanks.

I think 8.Ng6 in the last game is more interesting =P

ur tactical skills didnt seem too bad back then. just no teamwork between pieces and too focused on attack and no defense. Good improvement i bet chess is even more fun now right?
the better ive become the more fun i seem to have playing.
I thought about that, but then the rook would simply move and I would have to move my knight again shortly so I decided against it. I like the knight where it is on move 7 and would rather not trade it for his undeveloped Bishop- even if it meant no Kingside castling priviledges.
