Precedent.

Hi guys waiting for my moves, I have not been feeling well, so I'd like to ask for your patience while I recover.

I've learned that my cognitive abilities are not well when I am sick, I've regretted analyzing my games in this stage, so I've decided to put my games on hold while in it.

Correspondence chess would be a great hobby to do in convalescence if it weren't for the big elo hit that one gets.

The same with me. I got some fucking flu.

Ouch, my sister got it too, and it seems to be a recurring illness, it sucks...

Yesterday everything seemed fine, today my computer wouldn't turn on :eek:, I see absolutely no reason for that, but, oh well.

I'm using my older computer in the meantime, but will not be playing chess moves until I can fix my computer. It's also a terrible time for this to happen with the WBCCC about to start.

And it's back! Luckily I have a friend that fixes computers and he came to visit me, it was scary, as he brought the power supply of his computer and it wouldn't turn on, he thought the motherboard or the processor had died :surprised:

But  it turned out the problem was the USB ports on the computer front causing a short circuit that wasn't allowing the computer to do anything at all :eek:, as he disconnected it everything went to normal.

On an unrelated note, my aunt is moving to live to Chiapas with her children, and she gave me her 16 inch monitor :lol:, the extra inch seems to make a big improvement, but not big enough to go for 1024x768 resolution :wink:

Glad your computer is back working. Take as long as you like in our game.

Thanks, I'm glad I have our game covered by the conditional I sent :smile:

As you're also playing in the WBCCC, take as much time as you need as well.

Had a problem again, it seems the power supply's fan got stuck, so it would overheat when trying to turn on the computer and fail. My friend oiled it to get it unstuck, but we didn't have time to check if the power supply was burnt out. In the mean time, he gave me the power supply of his computer, but as it's of less voltage than mine I'm not sure it can hold my four cores, and I refuse to risk it out.

So, in the meantime, I'll be analyzing with one core.

Finally could replace the power supply and am back to full speed!
