This game is the 400th Online Chess game I have played at Chess.com. Considering that I became a member there in 2008, it is not that many games. Most of those games have actually been played in the last year. The game below was played in a team match called Battle in the Wolves' Den. The match is played on 18 boards between The 13th Legion and TROY. I am playing on board 1 for TROY in this match. The winner of the match is known at this point and it will be The 13th Legion because they lead the match 20 - 14 at the moment. Before this match started, there was a rating restriction that allowed only players that were rated under 1900 to join. I have of course broken that limit some time ago but after the match had already started. This match started on March 30th 2015 and because there is only one simultaneous game at a time, this match basically lasts a lot longer than it would have lasted if both of the games would have been played at the same time. My current Online Chess rating of 1957 puts me in the 98.8 percentile and if I remember correctly, I have not been in the 99 percentile yet but it is quite close by now. Also I would like to get a new peak rating at Online Chess because the old peak came in 2009 and it is way too long of a time period ago. Getting a new peak is much easier said than done though, I have been losing games annoyingly often or drawing against lower rated people that I may remain close to that peak but never actually break it. I have added two mate in one, two mate in four and one mate in eight puzzle today.
