For those of you who have been following my annotated games from afar, they will no longer be posted here.

I feel the need to verify my existence every once in a while, so I might as well do it on the six year anniversary of this journal. It's sad that several of my friends have become friends. I'll still probably hang around until everyone has become a friend. The annual Scrabble recap of the year will be coming soon. I was pretty inactive this ( Read more... )
