About Me:
re vera in Germaniae vivo, sed nolens vexillum Germanicum prope caput meum videre, patriam civitatis meae scripsi. cum ego undecim annos natus eram, de patre meo ludere ludum scaccorum didici et statim me addixi. didici bene ludere de libris diversis scaccicis, de programmatibus computatri et quod circa milia milium occasionum perdidi. I actually live in Germany, but I didn't want a German flag popping up next to my profile, so I put in the country of my citizenship. I learned to play chess from my dad when I was 11 and was instantly hooked. I learned how to play well with various books, computer programs, and by losing about a bajillion times. Ich wohne eigentlich in Deutschland aber wollte keine deutsche Fahne neben meinem Kopf sehen, also ich habe das Land meiner Staatsangehoerigkeit geschrieben. Als ich 11 Jahre alt war, habe ich Schach von meinem Vater gelernt und war sofort suechtig. Ich habe mit unterschiedlichen Buecher, Computerprogramme und durch unzahlbar viele Verluste gelernt, gut zu spielen.
