I see there’s an article on the home page of Chess.com “How Can Older Players Improve?” maybe I should read it.
Not wishing to pry into your personal lives, oh alright I am but interested to know the ages of the players in this current tournament?
Clearly as one gets older then ones thinking capabilities presumably diminishes. I’m not using that as an excuse, just interested to know what mind ages I’m playing against.

For the record I turn 60 in January. Hadn't played chess for a couple of years but the cogs are very slowly grinding into place, still too many blunders though particularly against Leuth for some reason.
That was another cracking game, @sillav nitram . We might not be top drawer, but we're pretty evenly matched. Lots of long range positioning then a mad scramble at the finish. Many thanks.
Thanks for arranging the last one Red and I kind of enjoyed it however I do not like Chess.com as a site. I have completed all my games however I have shut my account down over there so count me out of any invites.
Good chess to you all, I am very active on Gameknot if anyone wants a game.

What's so bad about it? It's just a chess board most of the time.

I cannot put my finger on it Talal, I know it sounds silly as it is just a chess board but I am a Gold, paid member over on Gameknot and have been so for as long as I can remember and I suppose I am just used to the site, the layout and the tools at my disposal while playing.
I had only played 2 x games on Chess.com before the CL Tournament and the whole experience seemed strange and not enjoyable.

Happy for another tourney when everyone else is.
*turns to camera* I'm 30, and my bogey player is Johnnysummers5!
Interesting seeing the ages, thought you'd be older Leuth for some reason.
But that’s the frustrating thing, one mistake and the game can be over and don’t I know that.
You played very well, like a demented demon at times, have you been studying 101 best chess moves?
Good game and a relief, though I think you won on merit, phew!
Right. Rematch!
