The "important stuff"
How long I have been playing chess: 13 years
Offline ratings:
Slow: 1706, rising
Blitz: 1816, in blitz offline, rapidly rising
Personal favorite time (offline): 10 minutes or 3+2 for blitz, 45 or 90 for normal.
Personal White opening: London System. I NEVER play the Ruy Lopez and I very rarely play e4. I usually start off with Kf3.
Personal black defense: Nimsovitch for e4, other for d4 (I believe it is the 2 knights if I remember right)
Oddities:
*My blitz rating is usually a hundred points higher than my normal.
*I have never done opening theory practice in my life
*I very rarely take too much time on the clock but I move slower if the opponent moves quickly as I think on my opponents time.
*I once ended a win vs a 1700 in blitz while having more time than I originally started with (4 minutes in a 3+2)
