Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Thanks for the game bigleggy. I managed to string a few moves together to get your rook and then found myself in a position to keep the pressure on for a change.

My first win in some time but you kept me having to think right up until the end. Thanks again.

Maclennane, good question.
I've only got one chess friend* I'm playing outside of the Fetch circle, and it is true that his rating is slightly higher than mine and I keep beating him :-)

Might be just him though!

* - the word chess is not strictly necessary

I play a few daily games outside Fetch, but mainly play rapid* outside, unfortunately my form fluctuates so wildly it's impossible for me to judge if inside & outside ratings look consistent, but I had had the same thought.

* Probably need to stop as think it's damaging my game - more slower & thinking needed

Happy to be re-divisioned on rating. I play outside of Fetch in another group but I don't think results there impact my rating much. I'm just pushing the pieces around mostly in both arenas.

I'd have no objection to re-divisioning either - even though I'd likely be one of the biggest fallers - currently 21st position in league table but 46th on club leaderboard on chess.com

Happy to play along as Fetch proposed in mail also, enjoying the games despite my downward trajectory :)

As noted a few pages back I’ve withdrawn from the league. I just don’t have the brain space at the moment to keep up and improve!
