Hey there all- I just picked up this game a few months ago in 2011. I used to play just about every sport you can imagine but as I get older and more achy I have decided to switch from exercising my body to exercising my brain. My brain muscle has a lot of growing to do though to achieve better results in this challenging game!Besides playing chess, I am a competitive Scrabble player and have been playing off and on since I was about six. My mom used to pay my sister and me a dollar to play a game, if we declined..we were grounded! Hit me up on wordswithfriends if you want to get a game. Username: spellbinding14
