Tuition anyone?

This sounds great! Hope i can join 🙂

I too would welcome and appreciate some advice from stronger players. Please sign me up! 🙂

Well, i can see there is a lot of take up here, but i'd like to add myself to the list never the less. Would really like a little help to break the glass ceiling that i appear to have around 1900. I do a lot of tactics work at the moment and feel i could probably make a 2000 grade if i really put my time into it (that is my current goal) but some advice on how to advance and maintain that sort of grade would be most appreciated! 🙂

Best wishes to all.

I have setup a clan for those who aren't studying with Carpiste. I pm'd C suggesting he do the same so we can have matches and then review the resulting games.

Those who want to join must be willing to commit to a plan of improvement. If you slack off, I boot you. That simple.

I'll be putting together some materials etc. in the meantime the clan is "150". I will post the rest in the clan forum.

I want lessons from Barry Hercules. 🙂

Game 1751999

Sorry about that Carp, I expected that post ages ago usually the guys on here are
sharp to spot such things. (the game was PM'd to me, I did not dig it out.)

Good Luck.

GP.

Can it be a club instead? I'm already in carp's camp.

I'm confused, Carp has made a club? I've joined Nimzo's clan, what's the difference between a clan and a club?

I made a clan so we can challenge Carp's group instead all being inside one club.


I have two so far, need two more so I can start up the forums.
