Ladder problem...

Ladder problem...

Next year I will have more time on my hands to play chess. I know I will eventually make the Ladder Top 20. But here is the problem: My network delay is very slower than all the other players. Sometimes it's even 1.8seconds!<br>So, if I'm gonna challenge one of the Top20 players, then they can choose what type of game to be played. Most of them play 1min games. How can I get myself into the Top20 without having to play 1min games?



Just look at FlitzBlitz

And he plays 4 minute games which is only 2 minutes faster than yourself. Its easy enough, you just need to play people near the top of the ladder and win.. Ok not easy if they play1 minute games like me! But there are enough players willing to play longer



Beat the Top Players and do it often

Thanks for the mention Mr Aleman <img src="http://www.gamecolony.com/forumhtm/images/face1.gif" width=15 height=15 border=0 align="absmiddle"><br><br>Yes, I play 4min games, and managed to reach the top 100 after 22 games; top 50 after 45 games; and top 20 after 74 games. It can be done...keep winning!
