 Dillon's (sort of)I am making this but mostly as a way of forcing myself to do at least an hour of CTS a day.
I'll report about it and if I decide to make this into a more training journal like post then I'll change it... So if you see me then remind me to do my tactics... _________________ The fool wonders, the wise man asks. |

Trust me I don't want to take the time out today there's a lot of other things I would like to do but, even after just yesterday I can already tell that it helped me improve. So, since I know it's important I'm going to go do my tactics now...

It's already helped me in this game with a higher rated player from the forum (who's name I disguised) As you can see cts helped me... I won material and before I could finish the trades w/ me ahead this person resigned:

Wow, what a massacre! Worst game I've played...err...i mean saw...in quite a long time. Nice tactics on your part, just truly mystified as to why your distinguished opponent missed them...must have been having a bad day i guess.
BTW, whats your current cts rating? _________________ Sir, you are like a pin, but without either its head or its point. -- Douglas Jerrold |
