Chess is a lot like life. If you don't plan properly your going to get skunked.
I am tired of people telling me when to resign. I'll quit when I feel like quitting. All kinds of mistakes happen in the end game and I find it fun as well as a learning experience. All you respectful quitters should take note of your own life and see if it resembles your quitting skills in chess.
Maybe ICC can start a quitters club or do something like no escape for quitters. You people are the type that always take the gimme on the last putt.....Because you just know you would make it right? Or afraid you might miss?
guest995(U) tells you: if life is like chess, look at yours and don't be a ghost and afraid to live it K master Is this a message that I play to much chess?
There are quite a few very cool people on the ICC. However you do not have to play to many random games to find real classless clowns on here. You people know who you are.
I think there is no better compliment on the ICC than someone that will not replay you. Especially if they have a higher rating!
I have read many finger notes on the subject of takebacks. Having played here more than my fair share I no longer would want a takeback. I have come to notice they are all mouseslips in some form or another.
My shtick works once in awhile, I have 8 titled player wins ex swingmaster %31, ex swingmaster %35, ex swingmaster %43, ex swingmaster %47, ex swingmaster %50, ex swingmaster %53, ex swingmaster %54, ex swingmaster %61
