Like my idea?

When I start a game with someone I sometimes check out their old games. I'd love it if besides showing player's stats on wins and losses chess.com would display a players most popular openings and defences, maybe with w/l/d percents? I've just seen this on databases and thought it would be super cool on here. You could see how diverse a player is, maybe ask them about openings (if they're successful at them) etc...

Any thoughts? Horrible? Cool?

I only like the idea if it can be disabled... which I would do. You're basically advertising your weaknesses to your current and future opponents. Wink

yeah I suppose. I just figured when there are important matches the players read up on each other (lol remember that commercial with kasparov?). Frankly I believe online people should be able to turn on or off almost any feature. This site is especially considerate.
