Any ICC players out here !?

I've given up serious chess a long time ago and I pretty much only play bullets these days. Are there any other bullets players that frequent this forum that play on ICC (Internet Chess Club) !? The purpose of this forum would be to try to build a list of ICC players... I might also put some lol positions created by the franzy of 1 min games lol.

PM me if you want to talk chess I miss it. Used to be about 2100 ELO.

There were go.

Re: Any ICC players out here !?

I've been a regular on ICC for several years, most active in the 5 and 1 minute pools. Unfortunately I'm broke atm and my subscription just expired.

I've been as high as 2330 in the 1 minute pool. My proudest bullet achievement was getting a draw off Nakamura.

wow Nakamura is a beast at those, props to you ! My highest rating in the same 1 min pool was 2360, recorded in October 2010 lol. My proudest moment was beating 3 different International Masters in a Row lol.

Hahaha that explains it. We've played several times in 5-min and your name always seemed familiar but I could never put my finger on exactly where from. I'll remain somewhat anony for now, I'll give you a tell next time we play.

Really? I don't doubt it, I've seen a lot of poker handles on ICC. LuckyRiver?

I'd also recommend Yaacovn. I think he would do exceptionally well with players around OP's standard because his feel for the game is just insane. He was one of top 10 blitz players on ICC before he was an FM. His style is so nice. He plays crap openings and makes what looks to be the most basic and 'obvious' moves in the world yet somehow he crushes GM after GM. His games flow so nicely.

I can sum up this entire paragraph in one word:

Re: Any ICC players out here !?

I was around at the time bettingbot just started and Whitehorse and Seahorse were owning all the flash tournaments. Fun times.

Biggest brag winning against Hawkeye who was god back then and winning free subscription by winning the flash marathon.

Don't play anymore because chess tilts the hell out of me

Screenname was Tasmor and I played ALOT. Go say hi if you remember, I know alot of ICC day&nighters went into poker later.

Re: Any ICC players out here !?

I played like 30,000 games on ICC in bullet, but I quit as it seems abuse on there has become a problem. I don't understand why people have to curse you out after losing a game or rub it in after they win one. Anyway, I moved over to chesscube and haven't had the same problems.

Censoring and issuing complaints didnt seem to help.
