i dont cheat
so i managed to lose my way down to about 895 in an orgiastic binge of shitty chess playing, then won a few games and i am now about 1065 or so.
today, i got online for a quick blitz fix, and played this game here, where i was black, against a guy who, after the game, said “nice computer play, thanks for the training.” he thinks i used a computer. i take it as a compliment. he didnt’ realize he played wrong, and i took advantage of his mistakes.
if you have ribkya or fritz or whatever and know how to do it, please run this through and tell me how close i am to playing like a computer. i’d like to know.
here is the game, i’m black.

stop being such a pussy
if you trade queens on move 6 of a game for no real reason, you are a fagtarded pussy. why are you even playing the fucking game? go collect stamps or get into the wide world of competitive quilting. seriously, why waste everyone’s time just because you are scared to play?
i’m so bad, i cant even be shitty well
so here is my dilemma with the ICC. i suck and i get bored easily so i lose a lot cause as i’m waiting for the other guy to move i surf the internet, look back at the game, move, and surf the internet. the other guy is thinking, i’m just reacting. so i lose. a lot.
then occasionally i get interested and i win. i will beat a 1600 or an 1800 and lose to an 1100. my rating goes from the 900’s up to the 1300s at any given time. im now in theh low 1100s.
so far, in the last week, i’ve been accused of using a computer, because i beat a 1300 when i was 1000. some 1800 named ROSS, who i’ve played and lost to, said i am not an 1100 when i beat him. i dont know if it was a compliment, i dont think so. today i challenged some guy, he declined and said he doesn’t play sandbaggers.
so somehow, there is word going around that i am a sand bagger, a cheater, or whatever. if you play on ICC and you are reading this, let me state this clearly: I, chessloser, playing with the ICC handle of chainsmoke, am not a cheater, sandbagger, or whatever. i suck, and occasionally, i pull a good game out of my ass.
damn people, its a fucking game to pass the time, and your ICC rating doesn’t mean anything to anyone. get over it and lets play some chess.
i’m not blogging, i’m just kinda typing stuff
i don’t want to get anyone’s hopes up, i don’t mean to be blogging, but there is crap i wanna say, about chess, and no one would really understand it but the chess community, so i’m typing it here.
here is one small problem i have with ICC. it’s not really a problem, i just don’t understand the reasoning.
i play a 1400 in a 10 minute game. Ten minutes is a pretty decent amount of time to think, especially for your first few moves. he fucks up on move three, i pounce, he offers a draw, abort, draw, adjourn, abort, finally by move 12 when he is a bishop and knight down, he resigns. and i get a message saying “it was humptyfruntz’s 1st blitz game,” so i dont get any points, no rating adjustment for me. but if i lost i would lose points quicker than a porn star losing clothes in a movie.
why is this?
and this isnt’ the first time it’s happened. not like i give a fuck about “ratings” online (or in real life for that matter), but, if i beat someone, shouldn’t my shit go up a point or two? even if its their first blitz game?
i don’t get it, i dont understand the reasoning behind that.
it pisses me off, but its not enough to keep me from wasting many hours of every day playing blitz on ICC though.
Endgame cothing: you NEED these shirts
if you don’t know already, there is a new clothing company called
Endgame and they kick serious ass. They are the TAPOUT of chess, all attitude, swagger, and cool like the other side of the pillow.
when i first saw the shirts, i had a chess boner. they made me harder than final jeapordy. well, i got some in the mail last night, and holy crap i love them. i am seriously thinking of entering a major tournament, like vegas or reno, just to walk around and play wearing these shirts. and i swear they give you an extra 100 rating points just wearing them.
I emailed John, the guy who has worked to put these together, and he even told me of some kick ass plans he has for vegas. i dont want to say anything to steal his thunder, but if he pulls it off, it’s gonna be totally worth going to vegas just for it.
he might mention it on the blog at his site, so maybe you can read about it there.
anyway, these shirts are exactly what i was talking about when i said “chess is punk rock.” i love them as much as i love my “what would morphy do?” shirt i got from Blunderprone, which, if you haven’t seen, is still available over at his site.
in other news, ive been spending about 5 hours a day sitting around, unwashed, playing blitz on ICC. that is all i do now, like a junkie. i sit there, having to pee, but instead of walking the 4 feet to the bathroom, i click on another game and play. seriously, i have a problem.
i might maybe play in a tournament this year, i don’t know. i miss it. if i do, i will mention it here and write up a tournament report.
and i will be wearing my Endgame shirts the whole time.
