@Valesias120 You missed the part where he said he did it in five minutes.

Haha, I meant the survival one. More than 50 score on the 3 or 5 minute puzzle rush is indeed very challenging and a big accomplishment!

Shoutouts to @Str0n6h0LD and @ragibites2013, both very active members of the forum. They have a very positive attitude, and are always willing to lend a helping hand. Also shoutout to @Gi184, who is always willing to play a game of chess with anybody in the notes section, and win or lose, he's always very polite.

As I'm approaching 1650 I would like to thank everybody who played a big role in helping me get to 1600, although I obviously can't mention everybody.

I would first love to thank one of my new best chess buddies, @ChanMan4. Although they used to be lower rated than me and asked me for help, they've absolutely flew past me and has gone through wins like nothing. They've been uber supportive towards my journey and have provided me with plenty of their own tips and tricks for success.

Next, I'd like to thank @Mawita11 (I think that's the account they use now, please tell me if I'm wrong). A while ago, I gave them a huge shout-out, and it remains the same. Although I don't use several of the books anymore, they've left a huge impact on me and have definitely helped me to progress in my chess journey, for which I'm ever in debt to him for.

Next, @WizzardA1. Wizzard was my closest match for the long time, and in the 1300-1400 range we were basically growing together. Eventually, they surpassed me before sadly taking a large tilt and dropping a ton of elo. We've always exchanged mutual advice and they do play a bit differently than I do, so I've definitely learned a lot from them!

I'd also like to thank @brandnewraisn. It's been a rollercoaster relationship, but overall, I've been overly harsh to them and I can't thank them enough for being so willing to play a game. Not only does it help them, but I do struggle a lot against lower rated opponents (I have a losing record against brandnewraisn), especially ones that like to attack and complicate the position. The games against them have been super helpful, and I'm super grateful for the games they've given me.

Lastly, I'd like to thank the following group of people: @Sebu13, @Str0n6h0LD, @KiriyamaKazuo, @Speed_swimmer11, and @Vertemes for their continued support and help in my journey.

Thanks everyone!

@outwittedyou If there was such a thing as Improver of the Year, you would be a strong candidate. Your rise in the rapid rankings has been phenomenal, you've certainly outwitted a lot of people. Keep going strong!

Which books out of Mawita's collection did you find most helpful?

lol, yeah thanks for supporting all of us man, I think you qualified for coach champs, forgive me if I'm wrong but if you haven't you deserve it this month. If you have then good luck (I'm biased toward Neiksans, so if you're on his team win).
