Great idea posting a table like this. Can we get this pinned? Anyway my info is:

Approx. Rating: Unknown (900 to 1000 maybe)

Timezone is EST (UTC-5).

Available times: M-F 6 to 7:30, and Sun 2-4pm (all subject to random happenings, emergencies etc).

@Nicke1Plate - should be a pinned topic already, let me know if it does not appear that way for you.

Yep just saw that after I posted here.

This was a really clever idea! My rating (Rapid I'm guessing?) is 1625 and I'm in PST (UTC -8). I'm not sure what my schedule will look like after the New Year, but I will be often available on Saturdays from 2-5pm. I'll add more times as I figure them out happy.png

Thanks @RogueAI3160!

@Rsava, I'm available for sure on Saturdays from 2-5pm, I'm not sure about Sundays yet, but I'll keep you posted! happy.png

@jimbycat - ah, I remember those time zones. I used to work for a company in Scottsdale, it used to wreak havoc on meetings late in the day. 

@RogueAI3160 - sorry about that, always have to check me, I am old and feeble and the mind ain't what it used to be ... tongue.png

Availability for Live Games: Sun 4p-10p for sure. Every other Sat 4p-10p. I work nights as a trucker so Live Game availability can be rare! sad.png Most of my games are Daily or Live vs Random

Rating: ~700 Daily and Rapid (total noob).

Rsava

@walastika - got it. Thanks for the info. 

You do long hauls or more local stuff? 

Thanks for being a trucker, we would be lost without you all and it ain't an easy life. 

WalaStika

@Rsava - Regional hauls, so just Ohio and neighboring states (home weekly). You're welcome thanks for your support! I think all we ask in return is to use turn signals and to drive safe! grin.png

Hi!

I got my Swap early this week. I have only played a few games. Playability is great, although it is not that easy to manage blitz time

I only found difficulties when trying to get a game on chess.com or lichess: it takes much longer than on the site and sometimes I can't even find an opponent. I also can't see the games that are open in those platforms, so I suppose it has something to do with SO app.

My rating is around 2000 and my time zone is UTC 0 (october to march) or UTC +1 (march to october). My SO lichess account is torrinha and you can find me in Square Off Players team
