AWARDCHESS, congrats on 7,000.
I am so far behind, I can't even see your shadow!
I will be lucky if I finish my 50 tournaments with 4,500 points. I am looking forward to you getting to 10,000 before anybody else!
Ozzie! You played really great last year! You worked serious and sure...
Who was been able to predict my spurt to Top spot, beside me?
Erik limited me just to 50 Tournaments at once! The Staff terminated 42 of my new Tournaments, that I ran as a Tournament Director for benefits of their Business... The Site cut own Roots!
This is a serious discrimination of the Platinum members! I joined that Community and got a Platinum by prepaying, when I has a Rights to play unlimited # of games, and I has 40 days Vacation per year!
Now, everything is shrinking and got a odor...
Yes, the Company has full rights for own changes! But I wait a better changes, better service, and much more better attitude and attention from site owners!
Indeed, I has a great choice of other sites and services to choose!
Greg
I am a big supporter of chess.com, and I think it is the best chess website on the entirety of the internets.
I am a big suporter, too!
If I ran about 200 Tournaments as a Tournament Director, and Ran 5 succesful Groups and Teams, as well, and what about a few hundreeds of my Blogs, Forums, and few Photo Albums?
Tell me, where are most GM's playing online? Not here...
And even what he had from them here, are passive and not playing!
They just advertised their Business here...
I am tired of slowest Connections, poor Servers, and bad Attitude!
God bless you!
Greg
I don't count ICC as a chess website.
But it is on the internets, I'll grant you that.
Sure! And Thank you!
So, a biggest GM's playing on ...checker website?
"Get milk! Honey... "
This is moving too quickly..."
I prefer a milk to Alcogol! As Alechine did at Second Match with M.Eive...
And what is wrong with Honey? In both meaning ways?
Greg
How can one NM here be rated under 1900 while another NM is rated over 2600? This appears a little odd.
It depends of performance, # of games in past and on Progress, Health, Age, Working schedule, another Habits and Additives...
A lot of Reasons, beside our Lucky! even an Odd ones...

WTF???
500 points in 5 days...
I cannot describe in words how incredible that is...
It was 3 finished 1 Tournaments by me...
More on the Way!
Greg
well yeah. that IS discrimination, limiting to only 50 tournaments, especially with the unlimited games promise. and to a paying member at that!
Pay your Way! And Play after Pray!
Greg
Noooooooooo! I am rapidly losing ground to RathiDragon!
AWARDCHESS, you better watch out!

How can one NM here be rated under 1900 while another NM is rated over 2600? This appears a little odd.
look at the number of games each was playing simultaneously and you will see that one gives a lot more attention to his moves on this site than the other, also his USCF rating is 200 points higher. Also the lower rated one lost a lot of games on time. I have had the opportunity to play both and also Ozzie.. Ozzie at one time also was playing a lot of games simultaneously when he was in all these tnments. I think he won't mind me noting that the standard of his play was far better and his rating went up very quickly when he cut down the number of games.
This is the only issue i have with the Awardchess method, it's fun and good luck to him but I prefer to get more into the game and play "better" chess. I find whenever i try to play 25+ games particularly against strong opponents i get my head handed to me.
