I've figured out what I need to do to improve my game - study endings, play tournament-length games and review them afterwards for where I messed up, study master games, solve tactical chess problems and so forth. The reality is I mostly only have time for blitz games on FICS, or every once in a while at the chess clubs just south of Washington Square Park. My local Greens chapter has a chess night once a month actually. I like Yasser Seirawan's set of chess books, especially "Brilliancies", an in-depth study of 12 games, starting with the famous game #6 of the Fischer-Spassky match, with all of it's cold war overtones, as well as a 1974 Karpov-Korchnoi Sicilian Dragon game that I can still remember a year after going over it, or the 1978 FIDE game #17 between Korchnoi and Karpov, after Korchnoi had defected from the Soviet Union.
I used to be on Chess Club/ICC but now I'm just on FICS. What are your FICS names?
