Finally got 1500. On the 303rd game. Record: 142-150-12
When the account was new, after playing 20 games it put me at 1470. That was 5 months ago in May. I've hit the number 1492 three times since May, so it feels nice to finally land on 1500.
The past 50 games are probably some of my strongest games I've played. Some are low error games (e.g., 0 0 0 4).
Looking through all of my games (mostly QGD, caro), I'm telling myself to look more into the Alekhine's Defence because I like a lot of the positions I got in those games.
Funny, several days ago I turned off takebacks, and now I'm winning a lot of my games. I won 4 games in a row because of that.
Later, I did an obvious castling misclick in my game against tinchoantonio http://en.lichess.org/l9ulIcFSET1A and he wouldn't let me take it back, and I think it's impossilbe since I disabled it. Cant have your cake and eat it too I suppose! :D It's cool I won even though I didn't have castle rights, and made it work. Nice queen trap in that game too.
