Hello!

I have not joined ICS, but am a regular reader of BDK's regular blog. I'm not sure if I'll join, but I'm interested in following his progress via this forum. I'll take a look at the curriculum. I have commitment issues, so I'm not sure I'm ready to lay out money unless I'm really ready to buy into this.

Some of you know me through my blog, but to those who don't; I've been playing in tournaments since 1972. I hit a peak USCF rating of 1945 back in the late 80s. I dropped quite a bit, and now hover around my floor of 1700. Embarassed

I'm addicted to playing live games, but I'm not very disciplined when it comes to studying. drunken

Sooner or later I hope I can get my sorry butt off my rating floor and get back to at least 1800. That isn't going to happen until I really take some serious time to study. affraid
