Subject: trouble with gamesparlor

Last night I had 25 seconds left in a 5 0 blitz game against an opponent who at
8 seconds let his time run out. It was a K2P vs. KP endgame which was not too
easy. Some adm. put 20 seconds back on my opponent's clock which would have been
enough for him to finish me off by checkmate. I chose to disconnect and file a
complaint this afternoon. This same incident happened to me last fall when I
totally quit playing chess on the gamesparlor chess server. I think that the
players on the chess server are given false ratings to understake there real
blitz rating (for example: a player rated 1625 might really be a 2075 rated
expert at blitz). It been very obvious to me that the adm(s) have people loading
my games into a database and preparing openings and strategy to beat my game
preparations. I have played a total of 25 different openings which have proven
my thesis about gamesparlor. They haven't foolen anyone. Any takers here on the
ICD newsgroup?
