I used to be very, very good at this game but I've gotten rusty over the years of not playing. I didn't play in school because no one wanted to play against me. Playing so many opponents recently and studying several hours each day has improved the game.

I'll even say it: My big weakness is playing as Black. I've studied White's game so much, that I am way out of my element when I am playing as the Black pieces. Too defensive, not enough attacking.
Once I finish with Wasp, I will return to you. :spitting blood:
