Here's my thoughts...

I'm looking for some rated 1000-1500 that would be interested in working on our game together.

Specifically, playing several 15|10 games daily on a specific topic to really drill the material in a cooperative playing environment. For example, lets say I wanted a ton of practice with the Ruy Lopez open game. We would both study, prepare and play just the Ruy for a while. After each game, we can post mortem, discuss themes of opening, defense, middle game, tactics missed, endgame, etc.

I see this a very much a two way street. I may want to work on the Ruy, you may want to work on the grunfeld. We would both have to study an prepare, which should also build our knowledge at the same time.

If this idea floats your boat, send me a message and we can discuss further.

I study several hours each day, so I'm looking for a similar player that will put an effort in near mine no preparing for the games.

p.s. ideal candidates should look like Katy Perry and like playing chess In a swimsuit. Not being Katy Perry will not disqualify your candidacy. It will just suck that you're not Katy Perry. Swimsuit is optional.

If we do this would you be in a swimsuit? Undecided

I would be happy to do occasional experimental games, testing new theories and such, but I would not be able to do daily matches or things of that sort. 

I would be happy to play games with you if we are ever on at the same time.

I'd be happy to do so. I quite like playing games and giving and receiving feedback. It seems odd to be telling your opponent how to do things better, but its a great way to learn. I've only done it in chat, not the analyze function after a game

Only issue is that I'm in UK so play between 8pm and midnight GMT, and occaisonally other times
