Hello From the US Pacific Northwest

Post by sporg »

Go newbie here. Been lurking on this site for some months now.

All ranks to be taken with a grain of salt for the foreseeable future...at least until after I have the obligatory 100 losses under my belt (92 to go).

I've really appreciated all the good info and discussion I've taken in so far and look forward to more. And to beginning to participate a bit.

Welcome.

Try to learn one thing in each of those 100 games an you will be playing very well. ( and it is ok to re-learn something in game #56 that you learned wrongly in game #44 )

Thanks for this advice. I need to spend more time reviewing my games (wins and losses) but I currently find myself hurrying through this process (when I do it...) and not getting out of it what I should.
