I recently signed up for a tourny that requires me to be <1200, I am currently at 1230, to prevent me from sandbagging, I am providing an open challenge to people who are way out of my leauge, hopfully it will be a learning experience.
Thematics are welcome, especially the grunfeld variations. I wish for my opponents to be rated well above me so I am more likely to lose (without sandbagging).
For official tournaments, if you are outside the specified rating range at the start of the tournament you will be moved to the correct tournament.
"Purposely" losing ratings points by playing higher rated players, to stay in the 1001-1200 range, seems to me to be sandbagging.
