Interesting, chess rust isn't much of an issue for you, I guess. I don't suffer from this brain reset problem in anything else I can think of, just chess. I am a little surprised no one else replied to say they had a similar problem, as I kind of suspected it would be fairly common among casual and/or poor players such as myself.

From what I've read around here, you are a strong player. I wonder if there are any serious/dedicated but weakish players on this forum who are willing to throw in their two cents.
