< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 169 OF 750 ·  Later Kibitzing> Nov-28-06    suenteus po 147: <WanneBe> It's great to see you're improving and playing lots of games. I'm impressed by many of the positions you've reached in your games on GameKnot. You have definitely learned a lot and you continue to improve. As for our game, I'll be surprised if I win this one. The draw, on the other hand, is in the bag ;) Nov-28-06    Swapmeet: <Wannabe> Speaking of which, I hardly ever see you playing on FICS anymore. Where ya been? Nov-28-06    Robin01: <I gained 120+ points> Congratulations on your rating gain. You'll be pushing 2000 before you know it. Nov-28-06    WannaBe: <Swapmeet> Mostly reading. =) And the games there tends to be short ones, 10/0 or 15/0. And I currently think it's hurting more than it's helping. Nov-28-06    Robin01: <WannaBe>Here is my game with brankat. If you get time to run it through Shredder it would be nice. Thanks. 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 a6 6.
