| Chess is tough game, make no mistake. I've been playing for about 4 years and play at around a 1500 level on average but my rating fluctuates quite a bit. Your BF should realise that most people, especially adults new to the game, will never play at a 2200 level. I would suggest focussing on your en... |

| I've just finished my degree at Newcastle Uni a couple of weeks ago and would encourage you to apply for the courses you're interested in. Being 5UAI points off the mark is not a lot, and you would still have an extremely good chance of getting into the program of your choice. When I first started m... |

I play under the name King Mob over at redhotpawn.com, and would be pleased to play against any folk from wrong planet who also play on that site.
As a side note, for those looking for a place to play chess online, www.redhotpawn.com is a particularly good site. |

Things really changed out of the blue though, I'm 26 now and have been in the same relationship for the last four years. Learni... |

I don't think I actively attempt to "imitate" fictional characters, I try to channel their mindset into my personality.
My favourite is King Mob, the coolest Motherf***er ever committed to print. |
