While I'm generally happy with my middle game when I've accomplished good opening development and my pawn structure's good, I lack good fundamentals altogether, especially with openings and the points leading up to the endgame (which lead to me typically losing endgames), and watching videos and absorbing minor observations during my own games doesn't seem to help me realize anything real important, so I've been wanting to post a lot more in 2p2's forums, and it is helping me realize a lot of stuff I think I should have realized already, but haven't, probably because I've been winning a lot more than I think I should due to good midgame combos that I find when my opponent doesn't play the best move at a given point. So, yeah, it's not showing better results overnight, but I'm definitely appreciate of your help, guys.
