My god, these posts are so funny. It is astonishing how much time he wastes (seems like several hundred hours, at least) on the silliest, most pointless exercises, and then on top of that, he throws it all away and quits when he doesn't meet some completely arbitrary goal. It's almost tragic, but, anybody who is that stubborn deserves the wasted time.

And that chapter on free food!!! If there is ever a 2+2 forum Hall of Fame, that post has GOT to be in there.

So the guy went on to came up with a 'system' for chess too. Fantastic. I can see it now..


The Foolproof Way to Become a Chess Pro, by mdlm, PHASE ONE:

2. Find three typographical errors or ink smudges in MCO-14
3. Defeat the computer at the lowest difficulty settings in Reversi for Windows
4. Profit!
