Lot of catching up to do! Learning is fun, no presumptions or objectives,
competitive but amicable. Warning to all new players : Better create a true account before using
a diamond subscription, not as a login under Gmail login 'pseudo-login',

Got the hang of bullet-blitz, finally got a good tournament, 4th place, 12W-2L-0T
