Going on sixty years here, still learning and still make mistakes. Blunders are rarer these days but mistakes, all too common.

I’ve known how to play ever since I can remember, and played very occasionally with my dad and brother growing up. Played a few times in college with a friend. That’s about it until fast forward about 50 years and I joined this outfit.

Correct me if I'm wrong but, you haven't been actively playing for 11 years. You only have 116 games (unless you play on an alt or something).

I joined chess.com in 2021. You are aware that chess is a game over the board, too, right? My grandad taught me when I was 6 happy.png
