I answered as if I were playing OTB in a tournament, and came up with Magician. I answered as if I were playing correspondence, and came up with Champion. Hey, Tal and Kasparov, what could possibly be better...
Has it occured to anyone else that most of us aren't strong enough to really have a style?
I mean if you blunder a knight by miscounting a trading sequence on move 10, what style is that?

Said my recommended opening as White is Ruy Lopez (I play King's Gambit whenever possible), and as Black is Ruy Lopez and Sicilian (I play Nimzo-Indian if possible, or Berlin variation in Ruy Lopez and Bishop's Opening).
