The less you have the more risk adverse you should be. Similar to neophobia on hurt animals.

I’m curious why use DirectX 9. It seemed that 90% of PCs were above that?

I was very disappointed when I bought the latest version (10 I think) when I realized it was not a desktop app. I loved the windows version back in the day

Surprised your bullet is the same. For me bullet is always at least 100/200 points lower than blitz. Its hard to think that fast

Definitely saw my reflection in your article. Even when I understand that I need to lose to improve it’s still hard to put myself out there.

I would love to see the rating before, during and after! As a viewer I like it better when it’s a difficult goal so I like that you have ups and down. I would also like to see the clock. Maybe it’s not as critical as in blitz but I think it’s still a factor. Overall I like it!

Oh yeah I got that. I finished book 1 last year but wasn’t sure if book 2/3 get much harder. A few chapters were stretching my abilities in book 1

Good job! How did you find the difficulty level changed between books?

Yeah. This change is similar to how Netflix started cracking down on some users to increase their revenue.

I assume at some point they will bundle it with chesscom subscription. I have been a pro member for years but never felt it had any real benefit.

I would recommend the 2. e6 Sicilian. Shares a lot of structures that are similar to the French and it's good against a bunch of anti-sicilians. It's also not as common as other Sicilians so even if they are booked you will probably be better prepared.

Funny you say that. I tried the exchange as White for a year and my results were mediocre at best :)

If you choose the French you will have a lot more familiarity with the structures than the White player. Even the exchange :)

I have tried Chessvis app in the past to stretch my working memory (by progressively adding more moves to visualize). Not sure if it can help you

I see. given I have never been able to do it I figure my brain figured out a way to compensate somehow when I was younger. I imagine how frustrating it is for you given that you were able to do it at some point
