I finally made it to 1600 at Gameknot.com. To be honest I never thought I'd reach this level. If you look at the graph, the point where my rating starts to shoot up is where I started to study tactics, tactics, and tactics. Unfortunately, I haven't been studying tactics as of late and some of my games are reflecting this. I recently Blundered my queen and fairly equal game. In other news I finally got my USCF rating! The first available tournament for me will be in two Sundays. I sure am nervous, but I need to compete if I want that 'Expert' title. If you're on the USCF page look me up!
