My first few months on tactics trainer saw me basically going up and down between 1500-1650..I then broke 1700 and eventually 1800...My highest is about 1820...how much do you think that correlates with my actual Over the board strenght?

Depends mostly on the positions you end up with. If you end up with positions with mostly tactical play, then it will be significant. But if you mostly end up playing closed positions requiring more of positional strength than tactics, I don't think it will be enough.

I don't know. but I suppose those ratings only mean as much as how seriously you were actually taking the training sessions. not you know doing them all very haphazardly and quickly just to gain as much exposure as possible to all sorts of different tactical positions in order boost your internet blitz strength a couple hundred points as quickly as possible. to me there's a difference between doing something like this and doing the training along more serious/focused lines.

my monitor is all messed up and I can't really use the trainer like everyone else at this time.
