My Journey to 2̶5̶0̶0̶ 2200

Avatar of Cherub_Enjel

As I've beaten the online chess.com daily chess960 world champion, I have decided that I would like to be a world champion myself. 

As such, I will have to reach 2̶5̶0̶0̶ 2200 FIDE elo first. 

I have decided, like many other aspiring players, to keep a public journal / progress report with me. 

Every week I will document my tireless, grueling training, and share it with you, and also my rating progress. I just keep forgetting all the sorts of  ridiculous posts that I see here so often. 

 

The Journey to 2̶5̶0̶0̶ 2200 starts... NOW! 

(Also, I will not be documenting my progress like the other players did - what a waste of time)

.. Acknowledging, your accomplishment ; Plus, your ridiculously small % chances, of even qualifying, to have a 'shot' at playing, for the 'w.c.'! - Which would be of course, some future  'FIDE' 'candidates' tourney ; If our Sick world, can somehow hang on, in the interim !? o:

i think you should rename yourself... 2Cherub1Enjel. just a random name i came up with.

any resemblance to persons living or dead is purely coincidental.

Your dream will most likely leave you broke and unsatisfied, statistically speaking. I would play in some tournaments to make sure you can actually hack it before your pursue it.

wow. its a nice name!

wouldn't it be SO cool if the world champ was "one of us" and talking about Pop-tarts as he studied for his next Major tourney??

Good luck! With which OTB chess rating do you start?

Avatar of Cherub_Enjel

Although I have a 2000+ OTB rating currently, I think it's fair that I start at 100. 

I will attain this 100 rating somehow first, and start from there, since that's what I consider fair.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I'm amending this to: journey to 2200. Which I think is a bit better.

I thought you already were the world champion?!  Someone claiming to be the Prince of Nigeria just sold me the set you played on to win the title.  Was I duped?
