Okay, okay . . . that is gameknot.com/chess-tactics.pl Where I understand the pl at the end to refer to yourself, aka Player. What I don't know is how to find the Input Value, eg 1858 for me, which appears on that page as the rating in the little pop-up box. Tho I'm sure it can be done. So I hope someone Will tell us both, since I'm sure someone Can. Or an easier way? |

SuggestionIf GameKnot admins see this thread, I suggest that adding the tactics rating for the player in their profile and hence making it accessible for opponents would be a good feature. Thanks. |

do you want to play poker? Or solitaire?solving a tactical puzzle is solving a puzzle -- a solitary analytical exercise without the spirit of fight or risk or gamesmanship. Chess is play, a game for two, an excursion into risk and venture, staking all on a dream and skirting the danger of defeat by a person not a puzzle: it is a contest of ideas, a battle of strategies, it celebrates investing in a position, deploying pieces like artillery weapons in war or assets in finance, chess rewards the tangibilization of an abstraction: of peering into the future and transforming one advantage into another, playing for that future you envision, fighting for the initiative so as to obtain that promise --yes, chess the game is both promise and power, so as to make your dreams real, inspiring your moves with hope, with breakthrough ideas one by one by one; it make the heart race, it gladdens the brain, it makes the spirit soar --! but -- solving puzzles is analysis, a loner activity for one, I spit on that, solving tactical puzzles has as much to do with sport as working out the artifical word - crossings in a crossword puzzle. but chess -- the game -- the Struggle, as Lasker called it-- is Life. |
