An Open Letter to my Adversaries

Submitted by Reservesmonkey on Wed Dec 12, 2007 12:19pm.

I've played 416 games on this site, which makes me #40 in most games played out of several thousand members. I have 332 points which puts me in the top 50. I'd say that gives me the right to talk on any topic I so choose. So to my adversar... Read more »

Izo?

Submitted by Reservesmonkey on Tue Dec 4, 2007 5:39pm.

How do I do it?

Submitted by Reservesmonkey on Mon Dec 3, 2007 12:57pm.

People are asking me how do I create these posts that have 750 and 500 views. Titles are important to a good flame war. You need to jump off the screen and grab the reader, make him open that door. Just like a tabloid. OK, everyone's all upset... Read more »
