When I was 23 I came to Taiwan to learn Chinese, originally for a year. It’s fair to say that that turned out quite differently. I had retired chess 2 years before, and didn’t really intend to seriously play. I did end up playing a few really lousy rapid tournaments though (I might edit some details in here later), and scored (I think) 20.5/21 after three tournaments. All wins and 1 draw, I’m just not sure about the amount of rounds. I always used to say I scored 26.5/27, but to be fair….20.5/21 seems more likely. As you surely can understand however the exact amount of games is not what matters here.
