                 Hey, all
Just getting back into the game after a fifteen year hiatus. I play for fun, and I enjoy chatting during matches, However, I won't usually initiate conversation, but happily reciprocate it.
The one thing on here I don't like is the analyze board feature. I will use it to go backwards in a game, to reclaim my train of thought. I'll never use it to extrapolate further into the game, as this seems like cheating to me. The point of the game is to look further ahead, and this feature defeats that purpose.
As a rule, I never resign and never time out. I also accept any challenge that comes along. All for fun, after all.
