I know many people have crazy high ratings, but just a month ago I was about 1500, so it is a huge accomplish to reach 1800, my end of the year goal. What's your rating? It seems mine is around 1800, because I have went below and above it 3 times so far.

Hi everybody! I write blogs about most of the tournaments that I go to. Feel free to look at my blogs! I always try to be funny, upbeat, and provide a different style of writing from the usual tournament report. I make new blogs when I feel like it, which tends to be after a tournament is over.
Note: Some of these blogs have games, and others will not. They will not be entirely serious. If you want to read good content, read my events after the Washington Open, it appears my blogs before then were pretty bad. Also, reading them in chronological order will also make more sense, as then you will be able to understand the jokes, stories, and other things that I mention or refer to (such as if I've played the same opponent before).
Here is a list of my tournament blogs:
