In all sincerity I'd like to become state champ if just for a year. From what i've read it is an obtainable goal. I believe I would need to devote about 2 solid years of dedicated chess study and play, and then move to Hawii or Rhode Island, lol..
what would you like to achieve in chess before you die?
Sort:
I would like to play well enough that I am not always slapping my forehead and saying 'DOH!'.

I would like to have USCF give me back the more than 12 USCF rating points stolen from me 40 years ago and make me an honorary over the board master. [I already have met my goals in correspondence chess]

But Ponzi, in the US you can get points in matchs, you can play a 4 games match at 30 minutes rythm.
We can search for a very very old Grandmaster, so you can win 4-0.
To become a GM...I will live forever!
