? I can now reveal that we are seriously looking at an exercises library

? times as you want.

I'm watching I hope it happens. In the meantime can someone give me an indication of how one knows one is doing well. I log on as an intermediate player though I'm probably overestimating my ability by doing so. I just think I can't really describe myself as a beginner though even at age 51 it is the first year I have ever played competitive chess. I have no chance of doing the exercises in the time limit. I tend to take the test as if I was playing over the board think for a while and then move. I got something like 69% in my second set of exercises but have no idea of whether that is any good at all. Anyway I did better at the second lot than the first so perhaps that's progress. How do other people judge their own performance?
