On Gamknot the team score of 24 on October 25, 2017 was the highest ladder postition the team attained while I was Captain.

Solascriptura on Lichess

We are not mighty in numbers but strength comes form  shield to shield, blade to blade.  The gates of hell shall not prevail in our realm of authority.

Currently I mostly play in the U1500 tournaments as my rating is from around 1350 to 1400.

Solascriptura Tournaments

I finally broke through and finished 10th place out of 73.  No place to win yet, but pleased with the progress I am making on lichess. 3/11/2018

I started playing live matches over on lichess about a  3 month s (January of 2018).  Finally broke the spell and got 2nd place, in March of 2018.    Sheez...competition is tough there!

 

The tournament was named  7 Minute Beginners Arena.  However, 1696, 1750, and 1573 ratings are not beginner ratings.  

I am slowly starting to get an understanding of how some of the features of the site work.   Tournaments generated by players are limited to a 7 minute/2 second add for the maximum time.  

If one elects a private tournament, then there is a broader range of time settings which are available.

The one thing I will start to do is give the tournament name which glorifies our Lord.  For example, the name of this tournament was   "God is my strength" taken from Psalm 73:26 

The advantage was burncheese (Brother Ryan) quoted scripture in the chat channel. I did as well.  It introduces Jesus, there can be follow up contacts to those who played in the tourney.

I signed up for this tourney, it was close to ending.  I didn't plan on winning anyting, just play a couple of games.  Sheez, Bambix2 slapped me around in the first one.  I was up by 6 points but the  King was  trapped and forced out of hiding.  The second game I dethroned Tim_t and  took 2nd from him

I   planned on playing several games,  didn't realize the tourney was almost over, played one game,  won and took 1st, go figure

I am trying to name the tournaments with a Christian Theme.  This one I selected Iron  Sharpens Iron.

I learned how to set the rating limits which will help keep the big dogs out.  My second game   with rafaeltp  waited until the tournament was over, still had a couple of minutes left on the clack then resigned.  He did not want a win for me while the tournament was still going as it would have counted for me and I  would have tied for first place.  All kinds of tricks for 1st place!!!  He offered a draw, but I wanted the rating points.

April 13th, 2018

I  dropped in on the tourney, played one game.  The tourney was  just about over, so I got the win and did not have to play another one.  Wound up with an easy 2nd place on 08/08/2018

I   have been having a tough playing the 5 minute games I have  just been not able to increase my rating.  Up and down.    I  went back to playing 10 minute tourneys.  This is better, 13 out of 130 players.  I had 3 wins and one loss.  My favorite was aagins t    Wadorc, feel it was one of my strongest games for awhile

I'm a paragraph. Click here to add your own text and edit me. It's easy.

I dropped in to the tourney, was matched for one game as it was almost over.  The tourney leader failed to move so I won.  This caused him to have won one game and lost to me, I didn't even have to move a pawn as he failed to move.
