Hey everyone. I am from Santa Claus, Indiana. (that is a real place I promise.) I play primarily 10-minute blitz games. rating hovers around 1000. Feel free to message me and let's play some games.
I played chess as a kid through middle school and then quit for 15 years. I am relearning the game and having a great time.

How closely does a daily rating on chess.com correlate to a USFC rating?

Not entirely sure since I have not played tournaments in a long time. I've heard from others that is it pretty close.
Hello, my name is Cary and I live a little north of Dallas, Texas. Chess is my number one hobby but I don't always get to play due to life. When I do have time for chess, I spend more time studying than playing. I sometimes play blitz games but I am training more for longer time controls. I also play in some USCF tournaments when I can and my goal for this year is to play in more tournaments. maybe one a month or one every other month. I just signed up for a slow chess league qualifier so I can get a long play game once a week.
A proud Texas and Alaskan chess entrepreneur! 
Looking to connect with anybody, whether you are interested in playing a few games of chess with someone new or seeking to develop community chess programs and needing advice. 
Chess is such a beautiful vehicle to bring people together and develop life skills. 
Hi, Joel here. From Grangeville, Idaho. Nice to meet you all.

Randolph here, greetings from the NW NW of the USA, in Ferndale WA. Spent my savings for a Life membership 45 years ago, turned out to be a great investment!
Does anyone live in the Bay Area, California?

Cary, if you get down to the Austin area, we'll play a game over the board. I'm in Liberty Hill. I keep a chess board here in the shop.

Hello from Philadelphia! I used to play quite a bit of chess in my younger days (I have just turned 52) and have taken up the game again in ernest fairly recently.
I'm in North Brunswick, New Jersey!
